Because the constant stream of new traffic to this site means that our data is constantly being refreshed. Our 10,000+ new visitors each week include working contractors and consultants, job hunters, hiring managers, HR departments, and journalists looking for the latest data on consulting rates. Other salary sites hide where they get their data and present you with doctored figures of no known provenance. We show you all the details: what skills, where, what industry, what job responsibilities, how many years the of experience go with the rate, what degrees, and even tax status and whether the rate was brokered or not. As always, you can search all our current years' rates at the 55 Real Rate Survey Search page. If you like what you see and you are currently working a contract or a full time job, please consider 56 contributing your rate data or 57 contributing your salary data.

You can easily include your photo or a logo, as well as a link to another web page. You can then update your page as often as you like so that the information will remain timely and useful. Potential clients can find you using our sophisticated database search. You know the quality of the people who populate our site and our very busy 62 BBS. Now you can give them the kind of detailed information about your abilities that should get the phone ringing. For more details visit our 63 Computer Consultants Directory Information Page. If people in certain specialties do not send us rates, there is no way we can get rate information about that specialty for our survey. By the same token, if you can't find the rate information you are looking for using our 65 Survey Search emailing us will not help. Because are rates are not solicited from managers or extracted with bribes of free hardware (like those of competing surveys) they are likely to be more accurate than those found on competing surveys. But because they come only from unprompted contractor contributions it is important that those of you who appreciate the Real Rate Survey remember to contribute your rates and that you tell other contractors about the survey so that they will contribute too! If you are paid by the hour please contribute your rates to our 66 Rate Survey not the Salary Survey. The 67 Salary Survey is only for reporting jobs that pay an annual salary, not for W-2 work that pays by the hour. We keep having to throw out a couple of hourly rates each week because they were sent to the Salary survey. We can't move these contributions to the Rate survey because the Salary Survey collects slightly different data.
