Hello,
I have been thinking about learning to code.
At this moment I'm doing freelance work in a very saturated field with low paying jobs (graphic design). I do understand that coding is also over saturated AF, but at least people in that field are getting paid significantly more.
My goal is to be able to get some type of little job in the next 90 days.
Here are two strategies which came up with:
- HTML + JavaScript
Why I even look in to that? Well, I do have basic knowledge of how to create a web page and most importantly it is something intuitive for me.
The biggest downside which I see is that this field is extremely competitive. Pretty much every third Pajet on Fiver and Reddit is offering his HTML and CSS skills.
- Making Python bots.
I have done that type of stuff before then was playing RPGs. I don't see that many people doing that type of stuff. But on the over hand not that many people even want that type of service. Simply because we have plenty of automation software available for free or for small price.
Any anons who have learnt to code on their own? Do you work in house of freelance? Any suggestions?
I have a listing on fiverr, but so far no bites. I think I'm charging way too much, but what I'm offering is basically to do your university projects, and those take time, so I'm not going to sell myself short you know?
Unfortunately it is very oversaturated with Indians, as you said, selling their poor skills for $5
People going to that website looking for help will have a hard time telling the difference between a competent person and a pajeet unless you present yourself better, I suppose.
