Why Are Developers So Expensive? An Honest Answer From One.
I charge real money for my work, and I get why that stings. Here is where it goes. 5 truths.
5. Cut scope, not quality. A smaller solid site beats a bigger broken one. Content you write yourself, fewer features, launch smaller, pay in milestones. Expensive becomes affordable without haggling the rate.
5. Push work up instead of memoizing it down. Genuinely expensive work belongs on the server, in a loader, or in a selector library with real caching. Deleting an unnecessary useMemo has fixed more bugs for me than adding one ever has.
