## Methodology

Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through the estate's fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 4 of the 29 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 25 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 2 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in GBP (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 267 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: one row per UK provider that publishes a fee: the unit (pence per word, price per article, day rate, hourly rate, monthly retainer), the number, the word count or deliverable it buys, whether research and keyword work are inside it, the minimum term, whether VAT is stated - and across the rows the figures nobody computes: every published price NORMALISED to a single unit (cost per 1,000 words) so a per-word writer and a per-month agency can be compared at all, the median and range in each unit, the freelance-versus-agency premium, the regulated-sector uplift, the PUBLISH RATE, and repriced-since
