  can i sell wordpress technical support?
  as simple as “i help you if you pay me”.

  some people/friends want my help for their blog
  maintenance, and i am not willing to do it
  for free all the time. you know 2 or 3 questions
  are okay but if they want me to be always
  there to help, i think i need to charge them.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  with the answer of one person only?

  if another moderator will find this thread, i would
  need your opinion/help about my question.
  it’s up to you to close a thread that is not
  even resolved yet.

  It’s certainly up to you if you choose to charge for services rendered.

  The purpose of these forums is to seek help with existing accounts/blogs, so I am going to close this thread, but honestly I don’t see any problem with your plan.

  Best of luck!
