I enjoy exercising problem-solving and producing good enough design. The quality always depends on the goal and circumstances. I believe in a holistic approach to designing digital products.

SEEKING WORK
Hi there! I'm a web developer that is currently looking for part time gigs. I have done projects in WordPress and also custom web apps with PHP on the backend. If you have any questions just hit me with a message on twitter or email me (contact info in my indiehackers profile).
FREELANCERS... I have a question! (Sorry Phil if this isn't the place.)
I am looking to bring on a AngularJS/NodeJS developer for about 10-20 hrs a month to handle some small tasks. I am wondering if the lower hours offered means I have to give more or less per hour...
Opinions?
Usually you need to pay more since every project (and thus communication) is an overhead. If it's long term work you might get the "normal" hourly fee.
When I've done contract/freelance work, I've charged less because I was only willing to work 10 hours in a busy month :) So you might be able to find someone like that.
On the other hand, people who prefer long-term and sustainable work will likely charge more because it doesn't fit into their goals.
I think it depends on whether you are looking for a long term arrangement and whether it is an ongoing project or different projects.
It also would depend on how time critical the changes you ask for are.
For adding features/modifications to an existing code a lot of time goes into understanding existing code. If you have an ongoing arrangement and freelancer is familiar with your project you can expect faster turnaround and lower cost.
On other hand if you bring a new person to project he would have to spend lot of time reading code with no or little output to show for.
I'm a vue+Laravel developer and as far as I know usually the hourly rate is static and independent of the total number of hours.
Definitely not the case for me if I do freelance/consulting work. Want me to work for 1 hour? You probably have to pay me for a full day - after all that's a day I can't sell to anyone else anymore.
Want me to work for a week? That'll be more like 4x my daily rate.
Longer than a month? Probably more like 3x my weekly rate.
