I echo the sentiment of many folks on here- you pay for quality. As a development consultant and programmer, I've heard one too many horror stories from non-technical folks who just hired the cheapest freelancer they could find. That being said, freelancers range from $30/hr (for asian low cost providers) to $150+/hr (experienced guys in the USA).
If you're looking to build fairly robust web app that you plan on scaling, I suggest either:
1) Recruiting a technical co-founder and letting him choose a freelancer he's closely screened, and then micro-manage the hell out of the project;
2) Hiring a reputable firm to do it.
Either way, pay no less that $100/hr for good work.
