Contracting: Flat Fee or Hourly Rates? Excellent combination and presentation of not only helpful and useful information, but applicable as well.
Writer gives detailed, thorough information in an engaging style that is easily understood by the reader and holds interest throughout the article. Good to read an article with new information, not recycled from similar articles.
