Monetizing your coding skills is like following a map. The first step is figuring out where you belong in the coding world. It’s like finding your secret identity! Whether it’s web development, mobile apps, data analysis, or cybersecurity, you need to master your domain and be able to attract clients who appreciate your unique skills.
Once you know what you want, improve your communication skills now. It’s like learning the language of success!

Just as important is writing code that works perfectly!

MARKETING AND SALES

  • • Create a sales funnel that converts leads into paying customers.
  • • Utilize online platforms (e.g., GitHub, Stack Overflow) to showcase your expertise and attract customers.

Finally, it’s crucial to understand the principles of value-based pricing and billing. Rather than simply charging by the hour, aligning your prices with the value you deliver to your customers allows you to capture your fair share of the market and maximize your earning potential.

Is it only for young people? I was interested but I think I'm way past that age. 😔

About us at devmedia, I think the study trails are incredible, they help you stay focused, however I believe that the platform could create groups with students who are already on the platform so that we can share with each other, and more bonuses to motivate students, and challenges with hackrank so that students can notice their progress and what they need to focus on more, or even competitions in groups of students.

My son took a 3-year course and couldn't find a job in that area. He's in his third year of law school and is working in logistics. This is all nonsense. When you go to look for a job, they demand experience, and there's no way to have experience without a job opportunity. It's very complicated.

My son too, he took so many courses with the promise of a job and then he just received the diploma and nothing more.

It's not a scam, it's the pure truth, research how much a person with a degree in information technology earns in Europe.

The best profession? Medicine.
The most sought after? By companies it could be IT.

@Edson Luiz Silvestre but even medicine is already in a bit of a decline, due to the large number of people being thrown into the market, year after year.

Situations that not even science can explain, people who fail exams and are unable to study, and end up giving jobs to those considered geniuses, in short, God is perfect.

Profession is not synonymous with having graduated from college. There are many people with degrees who do not actually have a profession. A PROFESSION is formed over time, through internships, work and study at the same time, educating yourself and after many years of this process you become a Professional, and you will always have a lot to learn.

@Joyce Florencio a diploma does not guarantee employment. We are living in difficult times. Many professions are disappearing. I know people with a master's degree and a bachelor's degree who are unemployed. I did a survey at the University with the theme "Goodbye to Work." Many young people will not even be able to find work. It is becoming scarce. It is a reality. I have a degree in Social Work and a secretarial degree. And I work in sales. This is the reality.

I am a student at DevMedia, the course is very good, the material is very well explained and easy to understand. The only thing that could be improved is the exercises, because when we make a mistake we have no way of knowing where the mistake was. In this case, it would be good to have the correct answer with an explanation, so we would know where we can fix it. So when I make a mistake in an exercise I am unsure where I went wrong and have to ask for help. However, it is a constructive comment, so that it is perfect.

Go study and acquire a profession and not just think about quick solutions to make money! That's why this society is a mess, full of incompetent people occupying positions without knowing anything!

but it's true because i saw on another page talking about new areas that are being created due to changes in the world, we are living in different situations, it's not the same scenario as 2 years ago, especially in the digital area, i was even looking at courses here to take advanced computing courses but they are very expensive here where i live, it seems that the job market will start looking for professionals in this area, i'm going to start investing in good courses to get a job with a better salary 😉
