 Indeed, hours you put in are by far the most important to calculate the
 worth. You hourly rate depends on how knowledgable & professional you
 think you are (and what they're willing to pay offcourse).
 
 Offcourse, there are other factors, like reused code that hasn't really
 paid out yet, wether this is a service for a friend of strictly business,
 etc.
 
 When I started out my rate was around EUR 30 per hour, dirt cheap, but
 then again I was a starter. Now it varies between EUR 40 and EUR 80 per
 hour, depending the complexity of the assignment and wether a customer is
 a returning client or it's a one time contract.
 
 And I don't know where you're from, but if you're serious about generating
 income from this always keep taxes in mind.
