It seems like they are all over the place. I don't want to charge too much but I also don't want to undersell my work either. I know if I don't charge enough, it can actually hinder people from working with me. The whole "too good to be true" pricing points. I want to avoid that.

This will be your baseline. You then add anything that costs you money into the equation. So if you use paid programs, more expensive internet, etc. you add this to the hourly fee. So you make sure everything is accounted for plus you get what you desire per hour.If you ever think you are charging too much or too little, check your home location on Google and search for what your service costs in your specific area.

I did look on Google and the price ranges everywhere from $22 an hour all the way up to $60 an hour, which is nuts! I guess I can go somewhere in the middle and do $40 an hour?

This will help you avoid that but if you want to ensure you aren't underselling yourself, James gave you good advice!

It does make sense when you break it down this way and account for what I want to make.

You can offer those without dipping below your lowest acceptable price point. A lot of people price slightly above to account for sales in the future. This is why I went as high as 30%.

Fingers crossed I picked a good price point!

Fingers crossed I picked a good price point!Just keep tracking things and lower prices in 6 to 8 weeks if you don't notice anything moving the needle. Just do it by small amounts. And make sure to consider the seasonal stuff coming up. A lot of places run deals mid September through December.
