Services & Pricing - AaronTurpen.com

Below are the services which I offer along with standard rates, as applicable. I prefer to bid
prices based on the project, rather than from a standard rate, however, so these numbers are only a guideline for you to use
for budgeting purposes.

Website Copywriting and Content Creation |
- Copywriting per page¹, from scratch: $15/page¹
- Content creation, including FAQ pages, product descriptions, etc.: .02/word
- Blog posting, from scratch: $10/post²
¹A
"page" on the Web is considered to be about 500 words, or roughly two screens of information, rather than a standard
printed page.
²A blog post is usually 250-400 words, more or less, or roughly one web page - written as a short
article. Ownership and attribution is retained by blog owner.

Article Writing |
- Standard newsletter article¹, from scratch: $20
- Standard white
paper², from scratch: $50
- Ghost-written³ newsletter article¹, from
scratch: $30
- Ghost-written³ white paper², from scratch: $60
¹A
standard newsletter article, meant for printing in a newsletter and/or posting to a content-rich Web page, is roughly 750-1000
words in length. Price assumes you retain exclusive use rights, but that I will be attributed as author.
²A
standard white paper, meant for multi-page online publication or download, is roughly 1200-2000 words in length. Price
assumes that while you retain exclusive use rights, I will be attributed as author.
³Ghost-written means
that you wish to retain exclusive use rights as well as be attributed as the author, thus leaving my name out of it.
A very common practice.

¹A standard web page is considered to be 500 words or less.
Editing is for grammar and spelling only and does not include re-writing or rephrasing.
²This per page estimate
is per printed page, or 800 words (whichever is smallest). Editing is for grammar and spelling only and does not include
re-writing or rephrasing.
³For simplicity, this reference to "page" refers to one printed page, or
800 words (whichever is smallest). Re-writing assumes that the new version will be roughly the same size as the original.
Once again, please note that the above are guidelines for your budget only and may not be what is quoted. Different
projects have different needs and parameters, so my bid may not match what is quoted here exactly. Usually, it will
be less. Remember: the more work you have for me to do on a single project, the lower the cost of individual items within
that project. Bear this in mind when asking me to bid on your project.
