How to Turn a Web design Degree into Instant Money

By: Gen Wright

Do you have a degree in web designing? If you are then you are probably busy looking for a job in the Information Technology sector. If you are already an employee of some software giant then probably all that you have to your credit is a couple of episodes of low back pain and some creatively designed web pages – the remuneration for which is happily resting in your company's bank.

Now let us look into a couple of things in detail. How much knowledgeable are you about web designing? How many years have you put in this sector and what is the number of web pages that you have successfully designed? Well if you say that you are an expert in the subject, have a couple of years of experience and there are some good web pages that make you smile with pride – then you are the right person to start earning on your own.

What keeps the oven burning in the kitchen for the I.T service providing giants? Well, they live on the orders they receive from their clients. They send in a price quotation along with work samples, establish a business relation and start delivering. The irony is that the real heroes who put in their heart and soul behind every design do hardly get noticed and paid for what they do. A web page design can cost anything from $20 to $250. How much does a designer get paid for every page? The answer would point to the fact that his salary is not justified.

Well, you can't expect Manna from Heaven to compensate for your losses, but you can expect orders. Just change your mind set and hop on to the freelancing bandwagon. Freelancing not only offers you an independent work environment but also easy money because the buyer doesn't need to pay for the overhead costs of a firm. These costs pile up on the designing cost and make it bigger than what the buyer wants to pay. If you have all that HTML, DHTML, ASP.Net mumbo jumbo running wild in your head, web site owners are looking for you. The good news is, designing is by far the most wanted service from project creators. Just search the net for designing work and you will come across scores of web – sites offering work.

It is advisable to first establish your name in the freelancing arena by offering high quality work for nominal prices. The gurus might say that under pricing ruins the market, but it actually doesn't. First you should run after work by registering with different freelance sites or contacting web administrators or even joining designers' forums. Once you have your name established with service buyers, then work will run after you.
