James,
The job is probably a re-badged web maintenance person and, from my
observation, the trend is for web jobs to pay very little. Perhaps this =
is
because there is always a swag of people with web skills who will work =
for
next to nothing because they enjoy the work. I often heard it said that
there is no future in web work because graduates will do the work for a
pittance.
There were probably quite a few applicants for that job!

Is this the lowest contract rate yet offered? Or did I miss something?
