/fgt/ stands for faggot.
Can we start doing this? Posting freelance ideas, share our experiences doing gigs, hustles, whatever you want to call it. The main idea is that we are our own bosses setting our own hours and pay rates. What do you do? What do you plan to do? What have you done? Post freelance stuff!
Me, I do people's computer science homework for money lmao, and some digital art commissions
Easy
>offer literally every digital service in the book
>hire it out to faggots on fiverr for a tenth of what you charge
done
This is evil
Anyone else want to draw cartoon fetish stuff and pander to normies for their autism bucks? Last time I checked this one Chink makes over 30k from her Patreon drawing Disney porn and gay buttsex and her art sells like hotcakes.
i've freelanced as a web designer and basically copy pasted good looking templates or slightly altered templates from template packs i pirated
>30k from pictures of buttsex
guess I'll lurk /ic/ then
Haven't been on /ic/ for a while but they get buttblasted by the very mention of Sakimichan, there's actual dedicated Sakimichan hate threads much like Jow Forums's nigger hate threads kek
No, that is sustainable
I already do it
I used to run a digital media/web development/SEO agency but when other things got more profitable, I just put it on autopilot
Now I have 12 different clients paying met to make one phone call, a couple of emails, and send them an "update" each month
which gives me more time to devote to marketing my SaaS and managing the several ATMs that I own
So recently I saw some YouTube videos saying that one could download Creative Common videos off yt, reupload them after editing, changing titles and thumbnails, and make money off of them. Is this legit? Does anyone know anything about this?
You need a thousand subscribers and 400 watch hours before monetization.
kek, this. /ic/ hates people who make it, they devote most of their time to not making it and attacking people who do make it. I think it's subconscious self-sabotage
That's pretty cool. A few of my digital art commissions, I just traced lol
It comes mostly from their own failures and inability to be able and create an appealing work of art despite their years of grinding boxes and fundamentals thinking that by doing so it would somehow fulfill the need for an attractive style to be able to sell it.
They need to just start doing commissions. For me, I deliver exactly what the customer asks for. You can't just say, "Oh, I didn't grind enough boxes, I don't know perspective, etc." because you're getting paid, so you just do it. Because you have to. If you can't get something right, you trace or photobash. It's all about the bottom dollar. You're not making money on boxes
Do you mind if you post your work please? I'm not trying to be like one of those bitter faggots that go around saying post your work I am genuinely curious.
yeah its decent, i made about $25k or some shit all in all between 2005-2012 (about 70 websites in total)
after 2012 javascript became too popular and i didnt bother to find a way around it
fiverr or some other easy outsourcing solution might work now
maybe there are some template javascript as well thats easily configured for a general website i dont know
now i sometimes sell chink rep watches as stolen originals to local niggers or the odd white guy
i make about $3k profit off of a watch since they cost between $200-500 and are basically identical if you hassle the chinks to send you their best one
Yes, if this thread stays up. I'm not at home right now and I don't want to post something from my social media accounts, for obvious reasons.
I'm also the guy who's going to draw Link-chan
Okay and thank you for the advice on not being too hell bent on fundamentals before doing commissions. The only thing holding most of us back is that fear of not being able to complete a request from the inability to draw from imagination especially hands and feet most of the times the sketches are unfinished because of hands and feet.
make link-chan a loli or i will murder myself
This.
Holy fuck, guess it's time to actually read loomis.
Hum yes I know that, I already have a channel with the monetization on. My question is about Creative Commons specifically downloading CC videos and reuploading them for ad profit.
We should keep starting these /fgt/ threads and gather all sorts of resources and material to start sidejobs and avoid any crab mentality sabotage faggotry. We're all going to make it bros.
JavaScript after React and Node is unironically pretty good for freelance, $50-70/hour rates are fairly easy to come by with very modest experience.
And le ebin blockchain development can be done in JS, too. Poorly, but well up to the production-ready state.
yeah i bet its lucrative to be a decent javascript dev, every website uses it nowadays
Explain further please
Real talk, which of these could I start within 3 months by putting 20 hrs/week in and make some spending money off of (like $100 a month)? I need to choose one and stick with it but I can't decide.
>drawing lewd shit - I don't know anything about it currently
>writing lewd shit - wrote some fanfiction a while ago, could look into writing erotica
>game dev - probably using Python to make lewd games like CoC
>programming - I know some Python, Java, and C, but I don't know how to use those to make $
this.
I always just give up half.
Been doing pretty good with music though, don't know how to monetize it though
Agreed, and if successful it would mean never leaving home again.
Trading, commissions and maybe programming or writing sleazy teenage romance novels for passive income would be great.
Programming hands down, but you will need around 1000 hours (and some projects) to be reasonably competent. Might be less for analyst-type positions if your math skills are still sharp.
>but this is too long
True. Fastest of all four options, though.
probably writing or drawing lewd shit
game dev is probably not going to net you anything for 3 months 20h/week work unless you luck out and make the next meme game
programming is way too broad to get you any good free-lancing opportunities, you have to narrow your search to something more specific (front-end, back-end, embedded systems, arm/ppc, testing/verification, machine learning, etc etc)
i could be wrong but these are my handful of cents
Music seems pretty sad desu.
Every tutorial guy with fl or ableton have tons of equipment easily worth over 10-20k, but then you see their patreon with like 10$ a month.
"Reasonably competent" here means junior-level job or $25+/hour freelance with consistent client flow.
Asset-flipping games is still good and fine, but requires a certain initial investment ($1-3k) and willingness to take some risks with the fiverr crowd
>Drawing lewdshit
If you're looking for a quick buck you could look for a niche fetish (usually Furry shit) and these communities have been known to have some richfags that pay top dollar for whatever specific content that arouses them especially if they are fixated by their own "Original Character"
I hire cheap labor to do airdrops for me.
Not gonna be as profitable in this bear market.
But you can also hire cheap labor to do any other money making online
How is the bee keeping business nowadays?
How about truffle hunting or farming?
Kickstarter scams? Indie video games?
Not much to explain
>go on Upwork or some other commission/freelance platform
>Dress up your profile and skills
>Sell freelance work for $100
>Hire some pajeet on fiverr to do it for $5
>Deliver it as if you made it, for $100
That sounds busted, I'm going to try it.
Yeah, just remember, the client doesn't care how many hours you spend practicing, all they care about is the final product and the money they spent on it.
Checking out currently active $30+/hour accounts at the Upwork, and it really does not look like they are having much success with your scheme as their annual earnings rarely amount to more than $30-50k.
That's pretty good for just sitting at home and paying pajeet peanuts to do the work. But there are other platforms as well, and you can market yourself and run your own website. It's not my scheme, it's the guy you replied to originally
Fuck yeah, I’d love this to be a regular thread.
Been on upwork for 2 months, bought the $10/mo “premium” subscription, haven’t gotten any jobs yet. BUT i finally have strayed getting replies from people, one today who wants me to write articles about taxes and regulations on cryptos.
I geared my profile towards smart contract-writing in Solidity tho, so weird that I haven’t really gotten any hits for that. I thought there was a ridiculously ripe market for “blockchain engineers”. But oh well, if I get some work pretty soon, I don’t have to keep applying for part-time jobs around here. Sweet
true.
idk i guess just play faggot acoustic shit at bars for older women and get free frappucinos
Is ATM user around?
That's pretty cool. If you have a decent portfolio, I would recommend Contently
contently.net I mean
How much experience with Silidity do you have? In your case, it might be better to just cold-call people directly and get some referrals and portfolio showpieces at joke rates (but no lower than 25/h) from random startups to pad your CV.
How are their rates and rates/effort ratios holding up against the pajeet menace?
Thats because you need to set multiple accounts and offer multiple stuff 3x 30-50k is nice for just sitting at your ass
Nah evil is going on Fiverr and then outsourcing everything to fags from 3rd world countries
This pretty much onpoint, but have a nice American/English name face combo,
people tend to pay better for 1st world service
Also good idea is to have one account specialize in one thing and do multiple accounts
Also fake certificates and shit helps lol
And use multiple people to do stuff for you
Lastly always make sure to have good reviews if not refund
