What's the most amount of money you have earned in Webpage Design? How much money do you make daily / monthly / yearly? Is webpage design your only field of work?

    $65 an hour US. My standard rate is $50 but charge as low as $23 depending on the client, their situation, and how I like the work.

    I would say to charge what you think you're worth based on your own/and others assessment of your skills. Agencies in the US charge $100+ an hour for work. Freelancers in the US charge from $15-$100 depending on their education, skills, experience, and established reputation. Indians do work for $7-$15 an hour but the work is **** and people with standards are willing to pay more for better work. I would say a good starting point for someone with decent skills and good design would be in the $20-$30 an hour.

      I am an Indian! I charge around $1,000 for custom (not customized), made-to-order WordPress themes. I keep receiving contributions for my free WordPress themes. Some of my themes have been featured on top design blogs such as Smashing Magazine.

      Please think twice before writing something that might not be the truth.

    Hey there. I jump back and forth between graphics and web services. I need to compete with others in my local area so my standard rate is $45ph. However, I am in a small country-ish setting so my area is a little on the cheap side. If I were in a big city, I would charge higher.

    I use Elance frequently also and my rate there is reduced to $25 to land jobs. However, once I land the client and they become frequent I generally charge more by offering them rush services.

    I would try to evaluate your area so you don't price yourself out of the market to start with. I have found once your clients know what kind of work you do, you can get away with charging more than the standard rate.
