Rates and pricing

I’ve put everything you need to know about my rates, process, and pricing in one convenient location.

Are your rates hourly or project-based?

Every writing project quote is value-based, meaning you pay for the value and ROI of the finished product, not the time spent producing it. My writing rates also include the following advantages:

  • Industry knowledge of what works and what doesn’t

  • Quick turnaround time & constant communication

  • Topic research for internal and external sources

  • SEO integration (when provided keywords)

  • Edited copy for grammar, consistency, tone, and clarity

  • Titles, subtitles, social scripts, and meta descriptions (for blog content)

  • The option to upload content to your CMS

In some instances, I will quote hourly rates, but these are for recurring, more involved projects. Writing rates in this case begin at $100/hour.

What are your starting prices?

One-time writing projects (like blog posts) begin at $600/post for up to 1,200 words but vary depending on required research, topic, and word count. Longer, more intensive content garners a higher price point.

Intensive product round-ups, reviews, and best-of lists (think: affiliate/e-commerce content) begin at $1,000/post. Product testing and product comparisons will have an added fee.

Copy editing services (like proofreading, line editing, copy editing/rewrites) vary in scope and word count but begin at $65/hour. I do not offer per-word or per-page rates.

Miscellaneous projects (like research projects, landing pages, case studies, product descriptions, newsletters, and video scripts) are also based on scope. Send me a message to chat about these things.

Why are your fees slightly higher than other freelancers?

You get what you pay for. Clients who choose to work with me do so because they believe in paying for high-quality, original products — not just finished products. If your goal is to keep costs low (rather than awesome results), you might be in the wrong place.

Why you?

You’ll never have to “check in with me,” and I’ve never had a case of the “deadline flu.”
