What is it reasonable to charge for setting up a WordPress site? I have a lot of WP experience, but never know what to charge. Help!
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Site 1 offers either a Free option, a Basic for $97 or a Premium for $197.
Site 2 offers $25 upgrades or setups, $200 setup + site integration and $400 setup + site integration + SEO.
Site 3 offers a $299 complete setup.
So basically, anywhere from about Free to $250 could be considered reasonable, depending on how intense you plan on being.
Of course, you can milk even more from small, unsuspecting local business owners who are itching to have a web presence. But that's just unethical.

M$I will go for what after that like finding a good theme and installing the right plugins! and just offer free installation as it can be done by one click from inside any hosting service now!
I would charge them for yearly maintenance of the blog for example!
So, I don't want my client to discover that I am over pricing him, or taking his money for doing nothing, I am sure that people are getting more smarter these days regarding the revolution of social networking ;)
so, plz don't put yourself in this position!
This is my personal opinion.
MY source is personal experience from being a we-designer, developer, and a blogger!
