I can’t recall how I came across [FreelanceSwitch](http://freelanceswitch.com/?ref=blog.tsd.digital) because it was one of those links you see on a mailing list, open to read later and forget to read until a couple of days/weeks later, but nevertheless [FreelanceSwitch](http://freelanceswitch.com/?ref=blog.tsd.digital) is well worth a read as they have a tonne of massively useful advice and they seem to be adding stacks more!

 Scott Wills also posted an interesting read on getting the [price for your work right](http://freelanceswitch.com/money/the-price-is-right/?ref=blog.tsd.digital). This article on [pricing your work](http://freelanceswitch.com/money/the-price-is-right/?ref=blog.tsd.digital), Scott briefly touches on [how to set a base rate for your work](http://blogs.thesitedoctor.co.uk/tim/2006/07/03/Pricing+Your+Work.aspx?ref=blog.tsd.digital) but concentrates more on estimating your time etc so if you’re interested in [calculating your price](http://blogs.thesitedoctor.co.uk/tim/2006/07/03/Pricing+Your+Work.aspx?ref=blog.tsd.digital) or [calculating a base rate for your work](http://blogs.thesitedoctor.co.uk/tim/2006/07/03/Pricing+Your+Work.aspx?ref=blog.tsd.digital), have a read of my article on [pricing your work](http://blogs.thesitedoctor.co.uk/tim/2006/07/03/Pricing+Your+Work.aspx?ref=blog.tsd.digital) (see: [Pricing Your Work](https://blog.tsd.digital/2006/07/03/Pricing+Your+Work.aspx)) as I feel it covers [calculating a base rate for your work](http://blogs.thesitedoctor.co.uk/tim/2006/07/03/Pricing+Your+Work.aspx?ref=blog.tsd.digital) in more detail. Scott's article can be found here: [The Price is Right](http://freelanceswitch.com/money/the-price-is-right/?ref=blog.tsd.digital) on [FreelanceSwitch](http://freelanceswitch.com/?ref=blog.tsd.digital).

[FreelanceSwitch](http://freelanceswitch.com/?ref=blog.tsd.digital) also gave my article on [business start up advice](http://blogs.thesitedoctor.co.uk/tim/2007/01/29/Business+Startup+Advice.aspx?ref=blog.tsd.digital) a shout the other day which was most flattering –I hope I’ve managed to pick up a few additional readers! Hello if you're new :). You can read the list of other useful links and see mine at: [Linkswitch -a roundup of great links across the web 3](http://freelanceswitch.com/general/linkswitch-a-roundup-of-great-links-across-the-web-3/?ref=blog.tsd.digital).

The long and short of it is to keep an eye on the [FreelanceSwitch](http://freelanceswitch.com/?ref=blog.tsd.digital) website at: [http://freelanceswitch.com/](http://freelanceswitch.com/?ref=blog.tsd.digital).
