Is $50 an hour (W2) on the low side?
 
$50/hr is $100k per year. If you're paying your own benefits and live in an
area with a high cost of living, it's not great. If you get benefits and
you're living in the middle of nowhere, it's a damned good salary.

Pay also depends on what the employer can afford, the employer's size, what
other people working at the same place make, your negotiating skills, and a
lot of other factors.

Really the only question should be are you willing to do the work for what
they're paying?
 
Good points...

Anyone know what a good contractor rate for the Austin TX area would be?

The question for me is, "anyone hiring?".
