First of all, frelancing in the "Bay Area" is a bit limiting. My work is all over he country.
If you have a CPU, a licensed copy of LV, and a net connection, then you can just as easily work for someone in New Jersey as in the Bay area.
but I am not sure how much to charge
Pick a number and hang it out there. If nobody calls you, charge less. If people are banging down your door, charge more. ;->
How do you guys do this? How do you set rates?
See above.
Do you ever work for a flat rate for the whole project?
If you mean a flat FEE, then yes, sometimes. If the client can really nail down the specs to where I have a good idea how to do it ahead of time, then I quote "X hours, not to exceed Y hours". I expect it to take X, but even if it takes Y+100, I'll bill you only for Y hours.
If the project is more nebulous, and ill-defined, then you work by the hour. Don't let the customer change requirements without payment.
I might have need of a freelancer, if you're efficent, amd thorough, and scientifically minded. Contact me via the Culverson.com contact page, if you're interested.
