  Old  CSS per hour/per day

I have been wondering how much I should be quoting for ongoing CSS changes. I have been asked how much per hour and per day. Anyone have a figure I should quote? I read the thread which is similar to this which said $30 an hour ish. I live in the UK so is £15 an hour reasonable? or is it less or more for UK?

I would say about £15 - £25 is a good price per hour.
Don`t lower your price to much or people will think you are cheap and nasty.
But don`t make it so high that your client thinks that you are the best coder out there and then they expect miracles. IMO

Don't lowball yourself, working with an hourly rate as a contractor is completely different from what you might think is a reasonable wage. Even as a junior freelance developer, £15/hour is very much at the lower end of the scale. But if that's what you value your time and you're happy with it then there's no reason to charge more.

i guess it just depends. I charge $70 an hour now, for design, css, flash, whatever really. I figure it doesn't matter on what tools im using, it's my time that is valuable.

It kinda feels like stealing, but you have to keep in mind that you are doing something that they can't do. That and the fact that you have to pay for your resources such as electricity, software, intenret connection and etc...

mikka23,
It depends on the level that you are at really. No on eis going to pay £50 per hour if it takes you nine hours to do a three hour job. Evaluate where in the feild you are and price accordandly.

On Jon Oxton's archive a while back there was a post. He was charging £250 a day. The ball park on there in the comments was around £50 on average. Some where £30 (and lower) and some went to £70 ( If I can remember correctly.)
