SEO - Link Building Salaries Survey

This is an incredibly basic survey where I'd like to find out whether link builders are being paid at a better rate for doing better quality work.

Over the last 12/18 months we have seen the number of viable link techniques plummet. This has resulted in a lot of companies and consultants using a content led approach to gain those elusive 'quality' links.

There is no doubting that link building via guest posts etc takes a lot more skill, experience and patience than submitting to directories, social bookmarking or forum commenting but has this been reflected in your salary?

*Yes I'm sure this can be ripped apart from a data point of view. This is something that I'm quite interested in so any advice on questions etc would be appreciated :)
