I'm a freelance writer and I am in a situation in which I am not sure what to do. I'll keep it short. He paid $35 for me to rewrite all of the pages on his site. His instructions were
"Rewrite these pages"
"I need 100% unique content."
"The meaning has to be the same."
I just did a rewrite of everything, going off the topics. Turns out he wanted me to change "every 3rd word" so it passes copyscape. I didn't know that until after.
Anyway, he wants me to rewrite everything. I want him to be happy but he is asking me to redo 4 hours worth of work.
Not sure what the right thing to do here is. I could give him his money back but that negates the 4 hours of work I did for him. I could redo the articles but again, that is me basically giving up 4 hours of my time for nothing.
I feel like the fault was on his end due to unclear instructions and I should not have to sacrifice 4 hours of work because of that.
I am not sure what to do here.
ETA: I don't think he even checked all the articles (8) before he asked me to rewrite all of them.
