A site that shows its numbers.
HireWebDeveloper.net exists because hiring a web developer is harder than it needs to be, mostly because nobody publishes prices, and the advice that exists usually comes with a pitch attached.
What this is
Two things, honestly labeled. First: a resource. Rate benchmarks by stack and region, a brief builder calibrated against real market bands, and guides written for the buyer, cost, vetting, contracts, engagement models. Use them with whoever you hire. They work everywhere.
Second: a working development practice. The services listed on this site are real engagements. Core work is delivered directly by the developer behind this site; where a build calls for specialist depth, it runs through a small network of vetted senior specialists this practice manages, one accountable senior, same contract, either way. Which mode your project runs in is stated in the quote, in writing, before any money moves.
The uncomfortable questions, answered straight
These are the questions every hiring site should answer and most avoid. Including this one's flaws.
Who operates this site?
Madhurjya Sarmah, a backend engineer turned full-stack practitioner, working with clients across the US, UK, Australia and the Gulf. Based in India (IST), working async-first with scheduled calls in your timezone. The guides, the rate tables and the code all come from the same desk.
Is this a marketplace?
No. There are no listings, no developer profiles for rent, no bidding, no matching algorithm. The hiring flow is deliberately short: you send a brief, a scoped quote comes back within two business days, and you decide.
How does this site make money?
Development work. Projects, retainers and maintenance, billed like any independent practice. There is no buyer-side platform fee, no recruitment fee, no commission on anything. And developers never pay to appear anywhere on this site, because there is nothing to appear on.
Are the people doing the work employees, contractors or partners?
Core-stack work: you hire the person you talk to. Specialist-heavy builds: delivered through vetted senior specialists engaged as independent contractors, managed by this practice, the accountability stays in one place, and the quote names the arrangement. No anonymous teams, no juniors you never met.
How are specialists vetted?
The bar for anyone touching work routed through this site: a portfolio of live production systems you can open and inspect, a technical interview against the stack they'll work in, reference checks with real clients, and a probation first project. It is a small network on purpose, breadth is not the product, accountability is.
Who handles the contract? Who owns the code?
Contracts are direct between you and this practice. Code ownership is non-negotiable and standard: repository and hosting access from day one, IP transfers to you on payment per milestone. The five clauses that make this enforceable are published in the contract guide, every engagement here runs on exactly those terms, because the guide describes the actual contract, not an aspiration.
Are you affiliated with HireWebDeveloper.com?
No. HireWebDeveloper.net is an independent project with no affiliation, connection or shared ownership with the company operating at HireWebDeveloper.com. Similar domain, different everything else. If you were looking for them, that's the .com; if you wanted published rates and a straight quote, you're in the right place.
Where are the testimonials and case studies?
Testimonials: the ones below, fragments quoted verbatim from public platforms, sources named on every quote. Nothing written by this site, nothing incentivized, no review gating. Case studies: not published yet, they go up as client permissions come in; the case studies page explains the standard, and the portfolio links the verifiable work that exists today.
The rules this site runs on
- Prices get published. Every service page carries its band. Every quote says what's in it. The rate tables show their method.
- No fabricated anything. No invented testimonials, no fake portfolios, no vanity metrics. The reviews on this page are verbatim excerpts from public platforms, fragments only, sources named.
- No paid placement. Nothing on this site is ranked by who paid. There is nothing to pay for placement.
- Advice that can cost us the sale. The guides recommend platforms, freelancers and in-house teams when that's the honest answer for your case.
