Question About Web Design Pricing (3)

1 Name: HK : 2009-08-11 23:32 ID:cY2IG08k

I've recently begun getting out into the world of web design and development, started a blog earlier this year which has seen decent traffic,( or what I believe is decent) and gotten acquainted with some associates and a few affiliates.

My first major job working with a certain company is coming up, and I'm still a little new at what to really tell them when it comes to pricing.

Basically, I've noticed some bloggers/web-designers have charged around $100-$200 USD for some single page sites, while others have charged up to $700 USD for a 3+ page site not including site content. -I think. ~_~

What I'm really trying to say is...how do I know what the going rate is? What should I really charge? I've looked at some other designer's, but I'm still unsure.

Here's what I'll most likely be doing:

-Making a one page HTML/CSS/Java page with links, banners, etc...
-Customizing and managing a Twitter for the company
-Creating a Blog, doing the HTML/CSS work needed, managing it
-Possibly manage other network sites?

What would work like this cost for a web designer? Because I was thinking about $200 USD set up of blog, with about $15 USD per 2 posts per day, haven't come up with cost to maintain..., and then I don't even know what to charge for the other 2-3 other things that I mentioned above...

Can someone tell me if I'm charging enough or too little? I don't have more than 2 days to really get an idea.

Web Designers, what have you charged before? What's a going rate? What do you literally think would be a good price for some of the things I mentioned above...cause I'm lost, and I want to make sure I don't waste my time for not enough money, but I really want to take the job.

Any info or help will be incredibly helpful.
