What do Content Marketing Freelancer prefer when asked for Content Generation gigs?

This is something that has come to mind when doing some research for present and future gigs.

What do you prefer as a Content Marketing Freelancer writer? To be paid for word or articles with a specific length or requirements?

I’m asking because most of what I see offering is a price per word as if it’s a standard. I would rather pay per articles or X amount of articles according to a thoughtful content plan. It would free you up to focus on the content itself instead of counting the words you’re putting in.

What do you think? I’m curious. 🤔
