There's lots of good advice on this thread, but I'll just say this: you're getting raped at that salary? I have a very close friend who had a very similar background as you except only about three years of experience programming, period. He got a job making almost six figures, 100% remote. I've got 4-5 yrs of PHP experience and I can easily pull down six figures doing freelance work part-time. Perception is everything. If you think you're not worth much, that's what you'll make. If you think you're worth $75/hr (or much more), you can definitely[1] find clients to pay that. 1. I'm assuming with 8 years of experience, you're good with Drupal, Wordpress, CakePHP/CodeIgniter/Symfony, etc. If not, I'd recommend learning them. It's not hard and all my clients ask for them. Learn APIs as well, like Facebook, Twitter, etc. |
