Freelance Web Development

I'm considering developing websites for clients, but I'm not sure how to charge and what to charge for (development, maintenance, bug-fixes, hosting, etc.). Are there any suggested reads one can recommend?

I recommend the Freelance track, but also go look and see what other people are charging, and for what services. there are several freelance website available in the career development section at Treehouse.

Hi Tomasz! Actually, there's a "How to Freelance" course here at treehouse :D! Why don't you try there?

The "How to Freelance" course would be a good place to start. However if you're time sensitive, I would do some research. According to SkillCrush, a lower end rate is $40/hr & and higher rate at $75/hr. If you're new to the game I would start close to the $40/hr range (at least that's where I'm starting at).
