Figure out a minimum project size (ie 1 day, 1 week) and stick to it. Then you can set a rate that covers your admin/business expenses.
The smaller the project, the larger portion of that project is going to be spent: developing the lead, meeting them, offering a proposal, negotiating your fee/scope, drawing up a contract, getting the contract back signed and with some money attached, WORK, revisions, launch/hand-off, admin, invoicing, collections, pay taxes on that money etc.
The above doesn't make any sense for a 1 hr job. You'll spend 2-3hrs on the rest of it. Better to have 1 project for a day, than 8 1hr projects any day.
