A quarterly *widget magazine, which was voted one of *widget Digest's best 101 websites for writers, is losing its webmaster. The last 4 months, on a volunteer basis, I have been in charge of one small section of the magazine's site. Now the webmaster says she can't work on it any more, because it doesn't pay much. I've been offered the job, with pay, but don't know what to ask for!

The site features columns by about 10 or 12 people that need updating once or twice a month, plus other updates now & then. No forums, java, flash, or anything like that.

The site desperately needs some recoding because it is extremely slow. I would like to tell the magazine's publisher this & get paid for modernizing & recoding it to proper CSS standards.

I'm no expert but I've been doing websites for about 6 years, and have been running a medical reference website the last 4 years. I also wrote the search code in php that makes it run; sticky me if you would like the url.

I have no idea how much to ask for. I appreciate any advice you all have for me!
