    Charge enough upfront so that if you never get paid another
    cent you're happy doing the work.

    How much you charge is going to depend on what I said there
    first and the potential dollar value of your work to your client.

    If you work through with your client step by step estimating
    at each stage of visitors to a the site then them contacting
    the business you may be able to get a very rough (and probably
    wildly inaccurate) idea of the kind of extra sales and profits your
    content could bring in.

    That will give you an idea of what you could charge (10% to 25%
    of the potential profits).

    Remember that content can keep bringing in sales for years
    to come too.

    As a dollar guideline plain content (no sales letter) is being
    charged at between $30 to $500+ a page.

    Kindest regards,
    Andrew Cavanagh

    Depend the
    a)workers wages,
    b)time
    c)cost of the service like what apps or product you need to buy to support your services

    The best is go for the market and check how they charges and give you a hint of how you going to set your price

    Whatever amount you charge - make sure it scares you a little to ask for that much. If it doesn't your price is most likely too low.

    What seems simple to you - can be a huge burden to someone else. So you are making their life better. How much would you pay to have someone make your life better?

    Price actually depends. If you'll ask too much or if your price is high, make sure you have what it takes for it worth and value. If the price is quiet low, then a meticulous client will have a doubt.

    As everyone is pretty much saying, it mainly comes down to the business. Differ your price in accordance to how much you believe they can afford.
