Salary Research

I always believe in doing a salary research before I apply for a new job or accept a project. Knowing how much you're worth is important when it comes to salary negotiations. You don't want to come off as someone who doesn't value his skills by giving a very low estimate. On the other hand, you don't want to sound like you're above everyone by over pricing.

So whether you're looking for a new job, need to send an estimate for a project or simply curious if you're under/over paid, you must try this Salary Calculator tool.
This tool can be found at CbSalary.com and created by CareerBuilder.com to help workers learn how much they are worth. You can compare salaries by City, by Region, and by Industry.

As for my research, here's what I found out:
Web Developer - $53,000 - $111,000
Web Author - $24,000 - $48,000
Web Administrator - $24,000 - $58,000
Web Surfer - $55,000 - $111,000
Web Content Developer - $45,000 - $$80,000
Top Web Content Executive - $60,000 - $120,000

While we're in the subject of jobs, I saw this unique job where you get paid testing diet pills. I have no idea how much it pays though. Maybe if you lose weight, that's payment enough LOL.
