There definitely are clients who are happy to pay $40-$75 an hour for senior full stack eng talent. We are such a client, and two VPE friends also commonly use upwork for 1-3 month gigs where they don't want to pay $175/hour for an sfbay contractor. The reason you're not seeing them is good clients eventually find a good contractor and either just run fulltime ongoing work through upwork (for eg payment convenience) or move off upwork.
- mrhappyunhappy 8y agoI was earning $95/hr as a ux UI designer. Now I run a consultancy and charge per project which equates to 260-300$ an hour. Upwork has many issues and limitations but if you do well by good clients you can make it work pretty well.
