Laura, We all know there are no hard and fast salary guidelines, especially in this economy. Below are links that you may find helpful: http://webdesign/about.com/salaries/index.htm http://www.salary.com I have researched this topic myself in the past and have found that yes, the rates in NYC are higher than say the mid west, with most major cities staying relatively in line with one another. I have also found that many roles have merged, especially within small companies and web shops. An Art Director is also a Designer and a production artist. A Producer is also a copy writer and programmer. A WebMaster is a one stop shop! Being mainly a web developer/designer I can offer some rates for that area. On an average I have found that the rates are as follows and often negotiable: Web Design & Development (which as we all know can mean anything from graphics to programming to marketing). $25.00-$35.00 (HTML, WSIWYG, graphic production) *$50.00 - $75.00 (Flash, Web Development, and most managing/director roles) Most projects will include a multitude of roles and programs. *Please not that now days, companies and clients seem to think web development no matter what the area, though less for programming perhaps, comes very cheaply. So it's an uphill struggle negotiating these rates. I hope this helps, I do have documents on pricing formulas for web development and those used by agencies, etc.. if you like I can email them to you directly. http://www.webmonkey.com Is also great resource. best, james scola --- Laura Forbes <laura_forbes@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > hello - > > Can anyone point me in the direction of where I > might > find and/or suggest a standard hourly rate list for > the following Web roles: > > 1.
