    I translated more than 1500 vBulletin's phrases to Czech. There are not any free Czech translations for free download. How much should I charge for the translation pack?

    Thanks.

    Source the right clients and you'll make a decent amount. Do you have a target client or business sector in mind?

    It depends on the factors and how they add up.
    -Value of the business
    -Value of your time and effort
    -How much the business will benefit
    and so on... However consider, anything is only worth the amount someone will pay for it.

    Automated translation software does not do the job properly anyway. As for how much to charge, it depends on how good you are, really.
