DUBLIN, Ireland -- Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c34696) has announced the addition of Agency Rate Card Survey to their offering.

What is the average daily charge out rates for different roles at UK new media agencies? And how do they vary depending on

the size or location of the agency?

The author published their first agency rate card survey back in 2003, so how have day rates changed over the past two years?

Which agency roles attract the highest fees? The survey will help you benchmark day rates for a wide range of positions, as we now track around 50 individual job roles. These include: SEO consultant, online marketing manager, head of media, eCRM consultant, strategic brand planner, information architect and usability / user experience consultant.

Are agencies bullish about prospects for the future? The survey and subsequent research carried out by us suggests that the vast majority of agencies are confident about the future, although there are issues too, such as finding the right staff and increased competition.

Other questions the survey tackles include: How big are UK new media agencies and where are they based? How do agencies track time and what percentage of their work is project-based versus a retainer? What percentage of work is done by freelancers?

More than 300 UK digital agencies participated in the survey, making it a very useful - and accurate - guide to help agencies and clients benchmark fees.

The vast majority of agencies (83%) estimate that their revenue for this year will outstrip their income for 2004. An impressive 11% of agencies are growing at 100% or more year-on-year.
