I'm a new freelancer, but I'm not sure how to set my rates. How do I go about it?

The first step is to research the market rate for your services. Look at similar projects and find out what other freelancers are charging for similar work. This will give you an idea of what you should be asking for. Once you have that information, create a budget for yourself based on your desired hourly rate and the amount of hours you plan to spend working each week. Make sure to factor in any expenses such as taxes or insurance. Finally, decide if you want to offer discounts for early payment or rush jobs.
