    Look for a job as a front end developer.

    That's like asking how much food costs. Hamburger or caviar?

    A good contract programmer can make well over $100/hour. ($150k isn't considered way out of line, and I know of at least 2 openings currently available at about $600k/year, which is over $288/hour if you consider the week to be 40 hours. It's usually 35 hours, so the hourly rate is even more than that.)

    If you advertise on sites like "hire a coder", you're competing with people who consider $100 a large fortune, and they'll do a 2 week project for half of that.

    So a single answer is meaningless. It depends on how good you are, the work conditions you're looking for (freelancers work at home or in clients' offices), what you have to offer, etc.

    I'll say that I rarely see people on freelancing sites willing to pay US fair market value for software development. I have people who are really excited just shut down at hearing about $35/hr.. which here is under market value. I know I'm competing with people who would commit to rewriting facebook for $99, so it is hard. It will be interesting to see where it all lands.
