Good job ;)</description>

		<description>Thanks Deb! It&#039;s a work in progress, but I couldn&#039;t stand leaving the site stagnant anymore. It feels so good to have an &quot;online home&quot; again, and not just a portfolio.

I&#039;ll definitely keep an eye out for that post. I haven&#039;t yet had to promote any blog posts or articles using social media, but I have had experience with the linking and submitting marketing articles to article directories for a few clients &lt;- another biggie to consider when setting rates - so time consuming!</description>

		<description>Hi Alicia,

This is an excellent compilation, sure to help any freelancer who is confused about what to charge. I&#039;m actually writing a blog post today about some extra things to consider when setting rates since many writers are now expected to promote blog posts using social media, link to other articles and blog posts and add SEO.

I really need to stop here more often, I love what you&#039;ve done with the place.</description>

		<description>Hi Allena! I&#039;m so sorry I left that link out! I had several links bookmarked for this post, and if I&#039;m remembering correctly I found your &quot;How Much Should I Charge?&quot; through some means (another site, or some sort of search) that gave it a really messy URL - my plan was to find the direct link, and I clearly forgot to do that, haha. Problem fixed, and thanks for letting me know! :) 

P.S. You should probably expect another link today or tomorrow - I&#039;m writing about writing contests and spent a lot of time on several of your pages this weekend, haha.</description>

		<description>Hey- thanks for the link! Actually it didn&#039;t link to my site, but that&#039;s ok. People can use my comment to get to my site, where I stress that people figure out their minimum HOURLY and then use it to set PROJECT rates.</description>

		<description>Submitting articles to blogs and websites (such as article directories like www.ezinearticles.com) helps in a number of ways - all of which can help you increase sales and make more money. When you submit the articles with a link to your own website, those articles help build links back to site, improve your site&#039;s search engine ranking, establish you as an expert in your field, and drive traffic to your site. :)</description>
