Dear Aspiring Website Designer:
Here’s a little secret I haven’t told you yet. And it’s one that holds a hidden profit opportunity for you.
I have had literally hundreds of clients, students, and readers ask me, “Can you recommend a good website designer in my area?”
And I’m almost always stumped.
The fact is, decent website designers – those who actually know what they are doing – are in short supply.
So if you like design and computers, website design may be the perfect home business for you.
Even better, as a beginner, you can get by with little or no technical knowledge.
How? When starting out, you can use pre-designed templates. Explain to your client that templates are no longer boxy and unoriginal. Many are beautiful (and inexpensive.)
You should easily find something suitable. This last part is most often, but not always, true. Occasionally you may spend many hours searching.
You’ll be tempted to optimistically suggest that you can change the color scheme, add an additional menu, etc. The more the finished website deviates from the template, the more costly the site becomes. But after a few sites are under your belt, you will become bolder and more creative.
For years, successful Website designer Terri Karp has been telling freelance designers and aspiring website designers the simple secrets she has used to make millions of dollars as a freelance web designer. Now she shares her hard won experience in her ebook Start and Run a Successful Website Design Business – which you can download, read, and refer to for 90 days without risk or commitment of any kind.
Become a highly paid website designer
In the Internet age, we’re flooded with information, as the store of human knowledge grows at an exponential rate.
Therefore, no single person can even begin to keep up – making it extremely difficult to be a generalist in your field.
Since most of this information is posted on the web, and not printed in books, the demand for good website designers is exploding – and there aren’t nearly enough to satisfy the need.
Now, in her ebook, veteran website designer Terri Karp shows you step-by-step how to position yourself as an expert in website design -- and enjoy a never-ending stream of clients, with cash in hand, ready to pay you.
