I base most of what I do on an hourly rate, but will break it down into a per piece price for them.

For example, if they want me to write blog posts and I think I can write 4 of them per hour and want $20 per hour for that job I would charge them $5 per post.

It all comes down to how much they can do in what amount of time. A lot of people don't like to hear an hourly price though because they think you will be sitting around doing nothing and billing them. That I why I try to then break it down into a per article/piece price and I will happily explain to them how I came up with that price if they are curious.
