Rates, positioned honestly
25-30% under London. The national medians this positions against (Q2 2026, mid-level independent, USD/hr): WordPress $62 · Shopify $78 · React $88 · Node.js $86 · Webflow $68, <a href="/locations/uk/">full the UK table</a> and <a href="/pricing/">all-region benchmarks</a>. City pages on this site deliberately quote positioning, not per-city tables: a grid of slightly different numbers per city would be invented precision, and you would be right not to trust it.
