That's why you ask for multiple bids from different people. You look at a few different things:

2) Total Cost
3) Quality of Work

Cost per hour doesn't matter in the end. I know some devs that will charge $50/hr and will take 10 hours for X job...

Then I know others who can do the same work in 4 hours but they run $150 / hr. They also produce much cleaner, more extensible code... However they have a backlog of work so don't expect anything for a couple weeks at least...
True dat. Good break down on the variable to consider.

Proper code and structure is an important piece to be sure. Otherwise, you have endless headaches later. Especially when you start scaling, or need to change or add on to the original site.
