What's average salary of webmaster - GoFuckYourself.com

8ball · 01-09-2007, 02:32 PM

I know depends on a lot of factors, but general webmasters.

Experience between 2-3 years.
Has good knowledge of adult biz, can design (not top of the line shit, but pretty good) can work on blogs, tgp's, traffic management, review/text/desc writing and pretty much anyting in between.

Good with html but no php/mysql knowledge.

How much do you think he can earn a year?

Roald · 01-09-2007, 02:35 PM

salary??

stickyfingerz · 01-09-2007, 02:38 PM

Well not sure exact amounts. But Ive always made sure my salary included a company car. The nicer ones give you keys to the beach house to use on the weekends. I would say on average a salary you might get paid should be around 500,000 to 1,000,000.00 per year. Reject anything less!

demetrio27 · 01-09-2007, 02:40 PM

From what I've seen on company websites, they advertise webmaster positions starting at 80k - 120k.

For the US, I'd say with some design and html knowledge, it's more around 25k - 40k a year. The salary range you mentioned is more for enterprise programming (at least from the job postings I've seen).

polish_aristocrat · 01-09-2007, 02:46 PM

Franck pays $10 per hour for a person with such skills....

Yeah, 25-40k seems reasonable.

... what .. the .. fuck?

Shit, I have so many projects hanging out there. Mind if we take some time in a few months to talk on the phone? I can dramatically improve that figure pretty quickly .. I enjoy our conversations, and would be happy to help.

fatfoo · 01-09-2007, 03:51 PM

RhondaN · 01-09-2007, 03:55 PM

We use a lot of freelance but have one full time that we started just out of school at $18K per year. I don't know how he lives.

lambpie · 01-09-2007, 03:57 PM

its another one of those things, as more people learn the skills the salary goes down..

That's a seriously broad question.

Exactly! There are so many variables and that's before establishing what is an "average". The title "webmaster" seems to vary a lot from corp to corp.

Got a very low perception of a "webmaster" until they prove to be useful - most are a total waste of time with lack of experience (and, in reality - unfit to be trusted with anything valuable). This applies irrespective of the company - can be big or small. Can think of a few large companies where they have "technical directors" blah - they can't even open a text editor and can barely supervise staff.

But.. there are a small number of excellent people and they are worth every dime and deserve a decent salary.

The "average salary" is also going to vary depending on whatever continent - eg EU staff are going to have a higher rate than the US etc.

Pinacolada · 01-09-2007, 05:27 PM

1500-3000$ per month

fusionx · 01-09-2007, 05:30 PM

I consider a "webmaster" as someone who has a little ability in a lot of areas. Light graphics, can find their their way around Photoshop but couldn't really design a complete site; is comfortable working with php files, but not programming; has basic SEO skills - both on and off page, can correctly determine good link trades and execute them, and can do HTML and CSS (using a text editor - not frontpage or dreamweaver in wysiwyg mode), with at least a little javascript. They understand the difference between HTTP and HTTPS and can easily use "webmaster tools" like FTP, gallery submitters, stats software, etc. They also understand affiliate programs and the requisite tools. They can easily learn MGP/TGP software and blog tools, and should be able to modify Wordpress or other templates (without real programming changes).

They can also contribute to website/application planning and design sessions.

I hire webmasters to be the "jack of all trades" - they are basically the glue that binds designers, programmers, SEO guys, writers and marketers together.

I hire at $25 - $35k depending on experience. With programming skills maybe up to $45k without being a full programmer.

I need 2 senior webmasters and 2 jr webmasters. In-house only to work with large teams. You would have to live in the the Charlotte Metro area.

I use to work as a full time webmaster for a cellular company in the US for 2 years. I was hired at 27,000 and quit at 33,000. Some of the work was maintaining the sites. The majority was geting info from different affiliates and sister companies. It was a lot of emailing, If that helps any.

How can you live on that?! That's only $3k/mo.

Maybe it's second-income.

$36,500/yr? I bet that's about average full-time income for webmasters.

Danny_C · 01-10-2007, 10:39 AM

I'm sure the average is brought down dramatically by the people who are paid in promises.

fuzebox · 01-10-2007, 11:05 AM

I thought the term webmaster on a forum like this means someone making 100% affiliate income? What's with the programming and photoshop discussion?

I also love the people who go "how can you survive on that!"... Go outside for a bit, 95% of the people you meet are doing just that.

Dildozer · 01-10-2007, 11:07 AM

If you work for someone else as a webmaster, you're a failure.

No ifs, no buts, if you have a salary it's because you suck at being a webmaster.

Tell me one good reason why you'd take a $80k salary instead of say the same working on your own time.
