For those who had experienced freelancing, or are currently freelancing as web developers, care to give a rationale when charging clients? Also, what's your preference, a fixed pay or time based pay? Why?

Very good question.I'd also like to know that.I'll wait for other people to answer.BTW:Thank you for asking this.

The normal rate should be 200 dollars per week as an experienced web developer

That depends on what you do. 200$ per week for a web developer is fine.

Lol, i dont know how much to charge bcoz usually i only like to write articles. So, I can charge 2 cents for one word or may be lower as a beginner. Lol.

I would charge 100$ per week if I have enough skills.

[silverleafy]

now depends on the project , you can;t expect for a easy project to charge the same ,...

[martinmilcev]

It's based on your knowledge and skills, if you are good enough I'd say 200-300$ a week.

[roullie666]

The amount depends, lets say the job requires you to create a very complicated task so i'd charge them a bit expensive.

Do you mind me asking were are you from? I mean, the rate could also depend on your location right?

I've read that some people actually charge high for smaller projects, thinking that if the client agrees, its a win, and when the client disagrees, they[freelancers] would rather have a larger project with a larger pay on the first place anyway.

It depends on the project, you cannot declare an amount for a certain project without knowing the client request for that project.

well i'm a softwares coder and the value that i charge my clients depends on the client needs, i mean its all about the software features needed and the hardest of the coding needed

[TotallyNerdDude]

really depends on the complexity of work he/she wanted me to do and since I'm not a registered/ professional video editor, I don't charge them the way pros ask for payment.

[warrenfakers]

i think it depends on the project, if you big and complicated projects you can charge big amount.

[shadypro]

It really depends on what you are doing for them , but u shoukd charge a fair price which is fine with both of you.

I think they should charge 150 $ weekly because the developers are working so hard and they would be tired and deserve that money.
