NYCPHP Meetup

[Edgar Reyes]

I think we are talking about 2 different things here, one is programming and
the other is designing, Krista programmers in NYC make a lot more then $50
per hour, depending on your skill set and what language you program in. For
design work yes $50 per hour is about right for simple design work and even
that is in the lower end, and that can vary depending on the sort of design,
if it involves some sort of specialize CSS and or flash etc. then it goes
up.

Subject: Re: [nycphp-talk] How much is a site redesign worth?

That is incorrect.  Perhaps a few programmers at Wall Street firms are 
getting $90 an hour, but the going rate for normal folks here in NYC is 
about $50/hr.

Although for sure plenty of folks come onto the NYC list and try to 
undercut our rates...

Also "website redesign" is not usually programming but involves other 
skills (like CSS, graphics design, etc).  I would not be surprised to 
see rates differ between that and actual programming tasks.
