[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're doing well at 46K. You would probably at or below that as a teacher or working for a nonprofit. It's a reasonable goal to want to make more. How can you do that? Talk to your manager about growth opportunities. Be a self starter – take on tasks outside of your current responsibilities to keep it interesting. Talk to people who have jobs you want – what is their background, education, skill set. Also find out what is good and not good about their job. The grass isn’t always greener. In my experience, it’s nearly impossible to find the perfect combination of salary, interesting work, good co-workers & boss, good location, good benefits, and good hours.

Bone up on skills that make you more marketable. Do you like managing the website? Maybe take some IT related classes to gain more skills in that area. Companies also like to see some career progression within a job. Try to stay in one place for a little longer (2-3 years) and take on more and more responsibility.
