I am reading articles by Benek (https://solowork.co) from last week. The target audience is designers but most articles are generic and apply to most freelancers. For pricing, this article is a good read https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/youre-probably-calculating-freelance-rates-all-wrong-so-follow-this-strategy-instead-a5c738e51f70/ I am currently billing my clients by the hour. And agree with @tall-postman-9284, it is good as long as the client won't nag you for the time. I like the weekly retainer system used by benek and will try it out. It will guarantee a client a certain number of hours per week, in exchange for a flat weekly fee. I have not tried Value-based pricing and agree with issues mentioned here https://www.freecodecamp.org/news/what-to-charge-as-a-freelancer-does-value-based-pricing-live-up-to-the-hype-1af1d4d88ef7/.
