What is a reasonable price to charge for a seminar?

Freelancers,
Have you ever been to a seminar? - Did you pay for it?

I've actually been hired to speak at seminars a few times but I've always been paid hourly, and I've also helped my friend, which is the reason I've been there in the first place.

That being said, I've been paid for an hour most of the times and a few times for 2 hours. - That's usually the time I've been there, so I've been paid by the hour.

However, I've never really been to any seminars myself and I've never paid for one either, so I just thought I'd ask. - How much seems to be a reasonable price?

Let's say it's a seminar that takes anything between 2 and 5 hours. How much would you pay for it and how much would you expect to be paid, in case you where the one speaking at the seminar?

Best Regards,

I would only pay for the big names in the SEO world, people like Brian Dean or Rand Fishkin, these two are my ultimate heroes in the SEO world I I would give whatever they think their seminar may worth.

But otherwise, I really don't really think you need a seminar anymore, you can find tons of written tutorials online as well as video content and podcasts. There is literally so much content posted daily I guarantee you won't be able to keep up even if you try!

I'm not so sure I would be interested in attending a seminar for the speakers or the information given out when everything is now sitting at our fingertips online. I can access any information I need from the comfort of my own home at no cost.

However I would be interested in attending seminars for the sake of networking. Let's face it, that a lot of success also often comes down to who you know! Say I went to a seminar and I met a huge internet marketing bigwig and we hit it off and on the Monday morning my name and website is now mentioned in his next blog post? Like yeah that could be huge right?

Oh I forgot to answer your question about the price. I really don't know, I haven't been to a seminar LOL.

It would depend on who is attending, but I wouldn't spend too much!

It depends on the calibre of people being invited to the seminar. If I'm hosting a seminar and understood the importance of the topics to be taught, I tend to increase the prices that I charge on that day.
