Invoicing as a Freelance Technical Writer

Technical writers turn complex products into clear documentation. Invoices by deliverable or hours make documentation projects easy to budget.

How Technical Writers Usually Bill

Hourly billing is common for documentation projects, with fixed fees for defined deliverables like a user guide or API reference.

Example Invoice Line Items

  • User guide
  • API documentation
  • Knowledge base articles
  • Documentation updates for release

Add any of these as line items in the calculator above.

Costs to Plan For

  • Documentation and authoring tools
  • Screen capture software
  • Training
  • Home office equipment

Whether a cost is tax-deductible depends on where you live. Check with a qualified tax adviser.

Tip

List the documents or pages delivered on each invoice. It becomes a useful record of the documentation you own versus maintain.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I bill documentation updates?

Updates for each release are often billed hourly or as a small fixed fee per release.

Hourly or per page?

Hourly is more common because research and subject-expert reviews vary a lot between pages.
