Hey, i'm a new DM, and I am writing my first campaign, but I can't figure out EXP budgets. Around how much EXP should I give for a six person party, levels 5-10?
Try to decide how fast do you want your party to level up.
do you want it to be a long campaign of 1 year or more, or a short one that you finish in a year.
you could instead of giving exp from monsters use the milestone system. after removing the bandit camp from the forest and saving the town the players will all level up to level 2.
for my new campiagn i decided that my players would level up to level 2 at the end of the first session and level 3 at the end of the second so i planned my exp and fights in accordance to that.

When you say "EXP Budgets" do you mean for creating combat encounters? If so, take a look in the DMG on page 82, it explains it all nicely in there.
