Yup, that's going right up there with the 9's timetables up to 10
finger trick. Let's see... 9 * 4 is (holds up both hands, looks)
*cough* still my favorite type of math... A trick!

That's too simple to figure out to spend any time messing with it. If
someone is making $45/hr, that's 90K/yr. If they're making $60/hr, then
that's 120K/yr. You just double the hourly and add a K.
40 hrs/wk * 50 wks * hourly rate.
Whether it's because you don't get the full 40 or because of vacation...
you trim the weeks by 2 down to 50..
> Salary Average by year
> Hourly Averages (overall and by year)
It would be cute to give people who only gave one an value for the
other,
based on a standard 5x7.5 hour week.

Well, for example, my position does focus solely on CF web app development
(and I use most of the things in that list) and I am right at the bottom of
the salaries that are posted in the survey. There again, how many people
have a permanent position (not contracting) where they can work at home
essentially 100% of the time? I prefer security and good conditions over
high returns (no, I don't invest in the stock market either). Also, the cost
of living here is lower than in other parts of the country.

The multiple jobs brings up a very interesting discussion. You can make more
money occupying multiple job types, but is it possible to be a great
ColdFusion programmer if you have too much responsibility doing other stuff?
For those of you who do concentrate on ColdFusion solely, should that not be
reflected? Thing about how much you need to know to be a highly effective
ColdFusion programmer and web developer:
ColdFusion, ColdSpring, Reactor, Flex 2.0, Web Services, AJAX, SPRY, MVC,
Model-Glue (and Unity), Java, SQL, Database Design, Javascript, DHTML,
CSS...
These are the hot topics that I could just name off the top of my head. My
point here is that ColdFusion and web development can be done "to get it
working" or it can be done at an "expert level". Part of the beauty of
ColdFusion is the super small learning curve. But, in my opinion, you can
never be an expert if you split your responsibilities between it and
anything else.
So I guess this begs the question, is being an expert in ColdFusion and Web
Development less valuable than being just "good" at different jobs? I have
NO answers for this... I am neither an expert, nor am among the higher
paying jobs in the survey. It's just very interesting to me.

I think your right on the money with the Multiple Jobs. I cant think of
anyone who could float as a CF developer that wasnt also a fairly decient
SQL/DBA And/Or a Decient layout and Design person.
And I do charge About $15 an hour more for SQL/DBA stuff than i do for the
CFML, and $25 an hour more for Graphics/Photography.
So im thinking $100k+/- in Indianapolis is just about right overall. <pst
of the designers i know are making at or just below that.

have have saved by not buying some other IDE? Or maybe you don't want to
know. ;)
Tom, I can leave this up for a while. No problem.
Johnny, thanks again for the data cleanup note. I took out the two 840,000
entries and changed one 690,000 to 69,000. I also deleted entries that had
NULL for both salary and hourly rate as they weren't doing anything.

I know what you mean about multiple jobs. Personally I'm working two jobs
and starting a consulting/promotions biz all at the same time.
It's funny how almost everyone that answered said something about second
jobs and contract work.
BTW, interesting aside, US Today (I think it was) rated software developer
as the number one job to have in the US. Now sure what their metrics were
for that rating, but I can think of easier jobs :)

I think it is safe to say that it is $210,000 since he owns his own business.
Although that would bring the average salary and the salary of 7 years of
experience up a lot. It looks like independent contractors make more money than
full time people.
Wonder what the average hourly rate is :-)
So sad for those with 3 years of experience :-( Those with 1 year of experience
rock!

To be honest I don't think there are many people doing just CF that make
that kind of money.
With me it's a combination of CF stuff and security analysis and a high
level clearance.

Thanks for the catch. I added the 000. Not sure what to make of the "210".
Should it be 210,000? I suppose it is possible if his/her hourly is $130.

Wonder if you count those who entered like 35 or 60 for their annual salary in
your average or did you patch 000 at the end of those numbers? because those
would significantly shift the average.

If you get $100k over there just for being a cfdeveloper then your damn

Over here (UK) the top end salary for such a role would be £40-£45k tops for
a senior cfmaster. I see very few offering that.

Hi Andy, to clarify my earlier post, for those on the upper end of the
salary scale (US$100k+) on the survey, it may be worth noting on the survey
whether or not they function in any other vertical market field of
specialization, as opposed to just a full-time CF coder.
Example, I am assuming that a CF developer who is also subject matter expert
in Human Resources or point of purchase apps will hold much more of a
premium versus someone who holds an Advance CF Dev Certification(????). I
am not trying to diminish the value of the certification, but rather trying
to pinpoint or point out the reason why the developer on the upper end of
the scale is paid as such.

I don't think my cert ever made any difference. Certainly no-one has ever
asked if I was certified. I think a reputation counts more than anything
else.
If your active in the community and an employer (or his existing developers)
have heard of you, then it really does make a difference.

and to that end, is it only cfmx7 advanced certs. Actually though, has
anyone ever received a raise based on obtaining a cert?

Oh, c'mon, is there *really* that much of a difference?
Heh heh...

Great stuff, could you make a select box to filter the averages on country?

Ooops...never mind. I saw that you're dropping zeros and blanks already.

FYI: I just added an average to the bottom of the results.

Charlie, that's why I put in the years of experience. Of course we're making
the assumption that more years means more advanced which could be debated.
Again, this is not scientific at all, but interesting.

You might consider dropping (or not showing) records whose annual salary
field is blank. It'll throw off the average.

Maybe a auto-normalizer to coalesce 'us', 'usa', and 'united states'?
In your SELECT clause....
IF(state IN ('us', 'usa', 'united states'), 'usa', state) AS state

It's reporting IL as IN ;-)

is it just for those who hold advanced cf certs? (since that's what the
original poster was looking for) :)

I personally don't care if it's just advanced - from what it looks like
right now almost everyone who has responded makes more than me =)

I didn't do any cost of living stuff as you can research that based on
location.

Had an issue with state. I fixed it and added in what I could based on City.

Looks like the state is either not being saved, or not being displayed.
Just FYI.

Come one, come all...
An anonymous salary survey is available at
http://keysym.org/cfs
I didn't bother with any validation, so if you try to break it, you probably
will. :)
I'll leave it up for a few days so people will have time and for those in
other time zones, etc.
