Welcome to ContractorCalculator, the UK’s leading website for contractors and freelancers.
We’ve been online and independent since 1999, when we launched ir35calc.co.uk to help contractors count the cost of the
then newly released IR35 tax legislation.
Still owned by founder and former IT contractor Dave Chaplin, the site has grown
dramatically since then to become the expert guide to contracting. Dave is still actively involved in its management,
supported by a dedicated team of contractors and freelancers.
Our ABC-audited monthly audience of regular readers
(our last monthly audit was over 130,000 unique visitors) is made up of contractors,
freelancers, interims and consultants from the IT, telecoms, engineering, oil, gas and energy, business, marketing
and medical sectors. They keep coming back as we offer:
- A comprehensive range of essential online financial, salary and tax calculators
- A high quality news service from a professional editorial team
- Expert commentary and analysis from industry and sector leaders
- More than 1,000 online articles and contractor guides suitable for beginners and veterans
- Access to leading contractor services.
As a result of this comprehensive resource for those new to contracting and experienced old-hands, we’re proud to call
ourselves The Expert Guide to Contracting, and have even published the definitive
guide to contracting – The Contractors’ Handbook:
the expert guide for UK contractors and freelancers.
And how do we know we have so many loyal contractor and freelance followers? Because, uniquely for a contractor and
freelance website, we invest in regular independent audits of our site visitor numbers for
ABC certification – the online marketing industry’s ‘gold standard’ for
measuring website traffic statistics.
We’ve had eight audits over the last four years, each confirming over 100,000 unique visitors per month. This
means we can offer advertisers ‘Power advertising’ – an integrated online marketing solution
that allows our advertisers to accurately target their advertising spend in one place, without having to
spread their budget thinly over multiple sites.
More importantly, if you advertise with ContractorCalculator, you know you are getting what you pay for,
because we are the only contractor and freelancer website that is prepared to back up our readership
claims with independent verification by ABC. You can invest in our marketing solutions with confidence and trust.
