Time is money, and you will want to charge based on how long it takes you to write something. If you write quickly, you can produce more text, but the quality will be diminished. If you write slowly and thoughtfully, you will produce less text, but the quality will be much better.

There are also other variables on which you can base your price, such as the topic matter, the requested completion date, and the size of the order. It'd be a good idea that, once you establish yourself as a writer if you so choose, to let your potential clients know that you charge on a per project basis rather than a fixed dollar amount per post, per review, per article, or for however many words of text.

This will allow you flexibility in your pricing, and you can increase or decrease your prices according to your personal circumstances.
