Default How Much to Charge?

I do some freelance fiction writing, blogpost writing and content creation. I am paid between $0.01 and $0.025 per word depending on who I am working for. What is the going rate for this type of work. Should I be holding out for more money?

It goes by experience and skill level. Base is $0.01 and I have seen it go as high as $0.10. Increase your rates slowly, as you get more and more provable experience, make sure to get links to anything you write so you can have it handy for your 'resume'. The bigger your rep and resume the more you can command.
