Rates are based on the work
Depending on the service (and on deadlines, volume, etc.), standard BelEdit rates are €104–€130 per hour.
Value for money
I’m an experienced professional offering high-quality work. But I spent many years on the client side of the client/service provider equation so I know that for you, as a client, the quality of the final product isn’t the only consideration.
I know that you want value for money. And that the overall cost/benefit is more important than the hourly or daily rates. That means getting the job done:
- quickly, with minimal hassle, to make your job easier
- to a high standard, so it achieves your goals
- within budget and feeling that it was worth the money
- within deadlines, so you can move on to the next project.

How I keep the cost down
I aim to get it right first time, avoiding costly rounds of reviews and corrections. Most of my work is approved right from the first draft!
So… How much will it cost?
The big question!
- Rates for more skilled work such as strategic consulting, web content creation or SEO copywriting are higher than for writing or proofreading simple documents.
- Final costs may depend on factors such as the quality of the brief and source materials, how much research is needed, number of meetings, how many people give feedback and whether the brief changes mid-project.
- Short texts can take comparatively longer to write than long ones. Reducing a text from 400 to 300 words without losing content takes ingenuity — and time!
- Additional services (desktop publishing, web content input, website management, etc.) are charged at a flat rate of €104/hour.
Some examples:
Please note – the items below are a rough indication only. Prices will vary for each project.
- Write a technical, 1,000-word magazine article: €550
- Write a short (300 words) video script: €240
- Proofread a position paper (2,000 words): €160
- Edit a 3,000-word technical document: €650
- Copyedit/proofread a recruitment ad: €60
- Edit a 1-page press release: €160
- Write a headline + 30 words for a poster: €100–€200
- Create a communications strategy: from around €4,000
- Create a basic website: from around €5,000 — including content!
