$5 per 500 words on Fiverr is for word editing and proofreading, not for creative writing like writing a novel. Charging what you suggested will mean the writer shooting himself in the foot. Don't look at our exchange rate and think $375 is ok for such a brain work. I will suggest the writer does his 500 words calculation and then add extra charge to it because he will be creating what isn't there unlike proofreading what is already there.

I only looked at it fro the angle of writing an article. I charge a fiverr for a 700 word article. Unique, plagiarism free and grammatically sound. He has to strike a balance or risk scaring the client away, also, being a very new seller, his main concern at the moment should be getting good reviews and more orders.

You've now exposed your ignorance for all to see. Here is definition of estimate, dummy. It is the opposite of precise, olodo-in-chief!

Es·ti·mate
verb
ˈestəˌmāt/Submit
1.
roughly calculate or judge the cost, value, number, quantity, or extent of.
"the aim is to estimate the effects of macroeconomic policy on the economy"
synonyms: calculate roughly, approximate, guess; More
noun
ˈestəmət/Submit
1.
an approximate calculation or judgment of the value, number, quantity, or extent of something.
"at a rough estimate, our staff is recycling a quarter of the paper used"
synonyms: rough calculation, approximation, estimation, rough guess; More

You merely buttressed my point, young man. According to what you quoted, estimates requests are PRECISE. Note clearly, I said ESTIMATE REQUESTS not ESTIMATE itself. There's a difference. Below is my quote

ALL ESTIMATE REQUESTS ARE DIRECT, PRECISE and are mostly anchored on specific words like estimate, quotation, or any of their synonyms.

Now let me explain the difference :

1. ESTIMATE. This is a rough calculation of what something is worth. This CANNOT be precise as that would be contradicting itself. Clearly, I never mentioned anything like that.

2. ESTIMATE REQUESTS. Here, the head word is REQUESTS, not ESTIMATE. The word ESTIMATE is merely functioning as an adjective and has nothing to do with precise. That said, these type of requests are always precise in the sense that the grammatical family of the word ESTIMATE, such as QUOTATION, is generally used when making this request. For instance, "how much should I charge" is imprecise, hence, cannot fall into the estimate category. If you ask me this question, I must demand certain things to help me make suggestions. "What type of novel are you writing? What is the copyright agreement? What are the terms?"... All these will be taken into consideration before I render my advice. I can't make an estimate because I don't have a clue of the kind of job you were hired to do or the kind of novel you were hired to write.

Estimate requests on the other hand are precise. For instance, "I need a cost estimate on a novel project particularly gothic..." . As you can see, the request is a precise one. Straight to the point!

Unfortunately, only you and Alukstea have given the OP a good advice, and those who dominated the first round of comments don't know shit.

The client hasn't made up his mind yet and has probably inquired from 5 other people. If you Bill him too much, that's the easiest way to cut you out.

The OP should be asking himself how much energy he will put into writing those things. Writing comes easily to some people than others. If you know you can finish it and you won't expend so much energy; beat down the price to say $250 or 300 to chase off your competitors. Do a great job, get the review and spend the decent Amount on something cool. You know WHY? Because work don't kill people. If you miss that job, you might not use those periods for something productive any.

There is a big difference between someone who offers you $5 on a 500 words one-off project and someone who offers you $5 on a 1200 words project but who intends to write 40k words. Be wise, think of the larger amount.

I buy on fiverr, as I have a PayPal but I contract mostly designers. I have used a Nigerian before. As a hustling nigga, the Orientation is the same every where, fiverr or not.

Please what's your take on the charge for a 10000 word article writing job on fiverr? Please anyone else may also help.

Bastard, he's seeking advice , not estimate.





The author above clearly seeks our opinion and counselling, not a nonchalant "num-of-page X 150" kind of estimates. The worst of it is that she didn't even estimate in figures, but made a vague repetition of the question the OP asked which is mockery and a nonchalant display. That's called a vague estimate which is not different from silence.

LadyF me thinks he has a point. What you gave was a vague estimate.. This guy might be a lawyer to really point it out. At first when I saw your post, I saw no wrong until Lawyer here started calling you out. Forgive lawyer and let it go.

Some people are indeed shameless. Everybody can already see u lost the argument, old man. U r only fooling yourself. The argument was between "estimate" and "advice" not between "estimate" and "estimate request". Chai! OLODOOO!!!

please Sir, I really need your help on how to go about on fiver, I have registered but still cannot understand it very well please I need to communicate with you for advice and the right thing to do, here is my number 07063571993 and you can also email me via emmaaustine10@gmail.com.
Anticipating for your reply sir.

Okpuamu:


I plan on charging $5 for 1000 words. I'm guessing 150 pages should be over 50,000 words. Would $750 be okay?

First I do not know why you choose to write novels. I would ask suggest you stick to non fiction books. I just hope you will get the vision of the client, 150 pages novel isn't a small work. I have written a 220 pages book on Haiti but it's on politics and there was no need to check for plagiarism. Also the client wrote 72 pages of the work before asking me to complete it to 200. Even at that, it wasn't easy. Therefore, If you are sure you can write it, then charge him nothing less than $500. Please consider fiverr 20% deduction.

150 pages, double spacing, Georgia font size 14 will be about 32,000 words

You have a point. As a starter, he got such work because the client was looking for a cheap way to execute such project. If the guy is looking for a review, he should do it with 500 words article and thereabout.

To me, i have written such number of pages eBook for non fiction books, how much more for novel. Because it is a novel, the source of information is probably coming from him. The work is not going to be easy. I have rejected all story eBooks. They keep coming and I keep rejecting them. On one occasion, the client told me he would pay twice my gig price for a story, I rejected it still.

If I was the OP, I will reject it, but since he has accepted to write it, then he should do the conversion for N60000 and send him the dollar equivalent. That would be the cheapest price the client could get anywhere.

If I can write such novel...

God knows I am not selling anymore...

Guy, you want to take up a huge project for peanut...

He should estimate how much he would charge for writing one page. Multiply by 150 to get an estimate for 150 pages.

teelaw4life:
Usually the charge is word based. You should make your own conversion, how much do you charge per word, take that and try to estimate the number of words obtainable in a 150 paged novel and then multiply by the amount you charge per word.

I'll go further, most charge $5 per every 700 word. If you're writing withMicrosoft word using a TNR format with size 12 font, then a page will have 300 words. So, basically charge $5 for every 2 page. So, if you divide 150 pages by 2 , you get 75, 75 pages multiplied by $5 will equal $375.

Charge the client $375. It's fair, it's balanced, everybody wins and you can easily explain your fee format.

Isn't that to small? I was thinking he should charge the client a few thousands.

This is a novel and not a research article.
