Ask me almost anything (avoid questions that might reveal my identity).
A couple years ago I learned how to make websites. WordPress. A year later i learned SEO too (easy). I'm doing a website a month (on average). 20 hours of work per week. This year I grossed more than €60k.
*I know I could work more and make more. But I started to be a gym rat (and i'm lazy)
Where do you find clients willing to pay a decent wage? I know all that stuff too (& more) but gave up because injuns work for rupees on the dollar & I couldn't be bothered to compete with the needfuls
Blake Anderson
is it too late if I want to do the same? is it worth coding websites from scratch with so many builders out there? do I need mad sales skillz? btw, thank you for posting
Jose Torres
>get paid for doing web with WordPress. People who pay for that are literally retarded.
Josiah Brooks
working through theodinproject atm and it's been fun so far. Any ideas on what to build after the course? What did you do when you first started?
Colton Adams
Brick and Mortar shops. I go there personally. I'm including design work too. But, the main work is addressing a problem, "more clients", so -> SEO. I let them think what the advantages are on an economic level. Make it look like an investment. What's €5000 for a website that can make your biz increase 10% in revenue? builders, lol. People don't know shit about what's outside. Working in a big city helps (I live in Rome) and bonding with the client is crucial. Almost all my work is starting to be from recommendations. most jobs on this world are useless. Also, to learn most things you need 6 months of practice at best. A secretary in Rome gets on average €1300 net per month, that's €28k gross per year (with taxes). Is the company retarded paying her? Are you retarded for paying a personal trainer? Don't tell me you cannot learn on youtube. Are you retarded for fucking a hooker? Don't tell me you cannot fuck a girl for free. Where is it written that you should grind and struggle to have a good life? (at least in a 1st world country). Also, most of the times you buy a coffee you are hugely overpaying. Cannot you make a coffee at home?

Sounds like you need a lot of social skills

I contacted nearby businesses that didn't have a website. My first client was an interior designer agency, I asked them €1000. Second client was a Parquet shop that already had a shitty looking website. I made it beautiful, and added an e-commerce. I asked them €1400
David Sanders
I was reffering to fact that WordPress sucks. Nobody serious would want to have his webpage made with WordPress ffs. Don't fucking tell me you need 6 months to learn WordPress, you must be joking.

Which of the following is valid: a) Home b) Hehehe c) d) e) I'm in Middle!
Lucas Wilson
Yes, you do. But once you start it's smooth and easy. Like cutting sugar, it feels like you're in a deep pitt, getting out is hell, but once you're out you literally don't understand why it took you so hard (it's way easier maintaining a business instead building it the same way it's easier maintaining a good body instead of losing fat
Brandon Fisher
How are you finding jobs? I've been doing crypto sites for a while but the work has been drying up recently
Levi Ramirez
I'm referring to most jobs. Unless you want to be a surgeon, most jobs are easy to learn, 6 months at best to master
Zachary Roberts
Yeah, some are extremely easy. Like doing web in WordPress, you can master it in a week. Don't get me wrong I applaud your ability to earn money for doing nothing, but as I said before - people who pay you are retarded.
James Cox
It took me months to master Javascript

Should i have a landing page for my free pdf? (For doing affiliate sales) or should i add content like a blog to my website which will allow users to know what i'm all about and add links in the content to have them join me? How do i get more people to join my website? Should i buy an email list and just send out cold emails to everyone? What is your method of gaining more traffic and conversions. Thanks user
Nathan Hernandez
If you have mastered JavaScript why don't you just do real websites? Raw tailored web is what most people want.
Hudson Moore
Mainly because I haven't found the right project yet. It's way easier to me to continue doing the same stuff for the moment. you don't sell gold if people are asking for silver
Jack Reyes
Thanks. Which of the following is NOT a valid CSS rule? a) body {background-color:”Alice Blue”;} b) none of these are valid. c) body {background-image:url(brownpaper.gif);} d) all of these are valid. e) body {link:#0000ff; alink:#ff0000; vlink:#666666;}

Aiden Lee
What are you selling?
Brayden Lee
How did you grow your bussiness? How much stress is there to it? Do you have comfortable life, because of this?
I'm first year comp sci student and we have web dev also, went from HTML, CSS, JS, jQuery/Bootstrap and now PHP.
I wanna make some side money during study years, where should I go from here on and focus on growing bussines?
Jordan Ross
So you are saying they pay 5000€ per website? I suspect a bait...though, what the fuck...here they go for 100-200€ ..you could outsource webdev and become just a salesman making 10-15k in that dumb area.
Leo Wilson
I started as you during university. I studied Finance and Banking. I'm not selling them websites but business improvements, more sales, all due to the kind of websites i make.
Michael Clark
You don't have to shill here, though you put it very nicely. Some talent indeed. Well in autistspeak it's a website, hosting and say SEO optimalization and some meme advice.

> months of Javascript > 300k starting classic biz
A "satisfied client" puts me in contact with one of his friends that has a restaurant, they already tried to make the website by some relative, nothing cool, basic stuff. So, they ask me for something similar to this: ricardcamarenarestaurant.com Cool, I offered The Website (with Logo included) for €5500. They are trying to lower the price. I never lower my price. If they want a lower price they can go elsewhere, ...and they did. They contacted an agency (i know the owners, they do almost every website for €3500/€4000). 1 month later, I contact my friends at the agency, I wanna know the domain. In Rome is courtesy to share the jobs (at least with who I know), to compare and see who has done a better job. Simply measuring who's got a bigger dick.
You wanna see the website they paid €3500 for? Take a look:
