Contractor, currently £650/day. Hoping to increase that to £850/day by end of year. Experience > 15 yrs in web dev, though maybe only last 5 applies now (I don't do PHP 3 or perl any more).

Edit: long term so no "off" days & 150k ish per year depending how many holidays I take.




How do you plan to get beyond £650/day?


Haven't increased my rate in nearly 2 years and soon will be expected to take on extra responsibilities (herding a team etc) so going to negotiate a bump in rate.


what language?


Mainly PHP if you can believe it. Lots of JS too though these days.
