Wage for small task programmer?

I'm currently programming a small project for a company and they're asking what I think is reasonable for pay. They mentioned £6 ($10.60) per hour is common for them in the UK. I'm wondering, is that good, or what? I'm new to all of this, so I wanted your opinions.

Thanks!

Web Developer Salary UK

I would tell them 14.25 GBP.

Sometimes in order to get your feet wet, and get a reference under your belt it's good to get something like that.
You're young bbd, I sure wish I was web developing at your age.
So I would say this: If you can get maybe 2 gbp more great, if not, then why wouldn't 10.60 look good for someone so young such as yourself.
I don't know how much you get paid, but you can't beat experience. Price looks good to me to start out.
Just my 0.02 cents

6£ is not a good wage in the UK if i was toget that per hour i would not leave bed, if ita a programming job push for 15 to 20£ , i have emplyed free lancers before and payed anything between 15 to 30£, if nogotiations(sp) go bad for the job's oer hour rate charge a overall fee its normally easyer to say ill give you 2000£ for x job then per hour etc.

good luck.

PS 6£ and hour is kakka

btw how old are u? reading lewy's post after i posted mine Dohh, and my above post also takes into count how good u are at what they are asking you todo

well Paul, bbd is 16 or 17!!

Firstly Lewy makes an excellent point.

Is it freelance stuff? or set amount of days per week? If it is freelance i would say £10 is good for your age. If it is the latter than i would say no more than £8. Remember experience is everything when your young. Building up your portfolio is important so getting some good clients at a lower price to start with is the way to go!

Take what they're offering and do a good job.
Then when they ask you to do more work in the future you have leverage for getting more money.

Money comes with skill and experience. You're young, so take what you can get and demonstrate what you can do. At this point in your "career" getting professional experience is the most important thing. The more skill and experience you get the more money you can command.

oh boobs got wrong end of stick again

I worked in College for a small company doing a basic website - they paid me $12/hour cash.

Since you don't get any benefits - determine how much your time is worth. Can you see yourself spending a sunday programming for $20 total?

I recommend taking the job, learn how to work with requests from an user (which usually sucks).

I have been doing this stuff since I was 14, lol some reason it never gets old.

Take the experience and slap it on your CV. More and more employers, nowaydays, are looking for experience and qualifications.

It can be difficult to get a job without one or the other -- the catch 22 routine kicks in -- and with Uni's splilling thousands of new wannabe developers out into the job market each year its gonna get even more harder to get your foot in the door.
