How to earn big money building E-homes for businesses and individuals

Welcome dear reader. I am always happy to pass on valuable info as my contribution to you and to society. Hence, today is no different. In this article post, I will show you just another way you can earn good money/income as an E-estate developer, building E-homes for people. I know some of you might be wondering what I am referring to as E-estate of homes.

Amongst the variety of advantages the internet came with is the opportunity for people to create wealth either by selling products or sharing information etc. however to do this they require a platform. This is where E-estate or E-homes come into the picture. When I use the words, E-home and estate respectively, I refer to Website Development. The internet is, as it were, is simply the interconnection of computers sharing files across the network. This can be via upload or download as the case may be.

The files so shared are usually, but not limited to, html files. Web pages are simply html files that have been designed to display the way the designer wants them to. Thus alongside displayed texts flash videos and images can also be displayed on web pages. We are concerned with this aspect.

The Internet has proved to be a spawning ground for a large and growing number of e-businesses that carry out most of their sales and services over the Internet. Other conventional businesses are not left out too. Hence, with the potential explosion in the number of individuals and businesses in quest for web presence you should you should consider cashing in on the opportunity. Just like humans reorganise shelter as one of the necessities of life and therefore require houses to live in or to serve as office blocks so also everyone desiring to explore doing business online must have a website or e-home – the reason I gave this article its name.

How you can get started

To begin earning from the business of web development you need to take the following steps to get started

Develop your skill: Designing websites can be very interesting. It is not as difficult as it appears. True you may not end up doing everything yourself – as many websites design are contributed to by different professionals qualified in different aspects like java script programming etc – but you can perfect your skills on the basics, arranging html elements in an aesthetic way.

To begin interest is important. It’s a fact that ventures driven by passion succeed. Thus to be a good website designer you must have an interest in and passion for it. Next step is to invest in skill development with respect to html (Hyper Text Mark-up Language), CSS (Cascading Style Sheet), Databases etc. this is achievable by enrolment into IT schools or even by subscribing to online tutorials too.

You can also do like me.  A social scientist I had interest in web development and had no opportunity to attend regular training. Hence I invested in design applications like Macromedia Dreamweaver, Adobe Flash Professional, Adobe Photoshop and Motion Artist (Read Up the article) etc. I also visited websites that offer  

tutorials on how to use such applications to create great graphic and web page designs. Soon I will be launching my own website I have been working on and other services I am also going to build around it. Think about how much I would have parted with to get someone else do it for me. That is exactly what I will be making from my clients whenever I do a job for them. Again, if you cannot come up with designs or feel you are not creative enough  you can visit sites like www.newtemps.com for sample designs you can modify to build something new. A none-expert may find it a bit challenging to do this if the design is based on table layouts.

Register for a Web Hosting package: When you are sure that you are ready to float your website design consulting service the next step is to register for a Reseller Hosting Service. This will ensure you make money not only designing a website for your clients but also earning from hosting their websites and registering Domain names too. Thus, you earn either by just hosting clients’ websites, hosting their domain names alone or managing the content of their websites if they want you to take the responsibility.

As a consultant, you should at least get a registered company name to give your business a legal and professional outlook since you would be dealing with people you’ll be meeting probably face to face. This does not mean you cannot begin without that. Many who earn online conduct business and seal deals without ever meeting clients or being registered. I have seen people who landed huge contracts just sending a company a quote and sample designs and delivering in the end; yet they owned no company. It’s all about what you have to offer in terms of quality. You can start at once while you work on registering your business name.

 

Engage other professionals:

Know man is an absolute possessor of skills or knowledge; hence the place of collaboration. One of the advantages of working with a team of designers is that you get to compare notes and trade ideas with other people who know as much, if not more, than you do. If you find you cannot undertake all aspects of designing a website – like me not fully grasping the JavaScript stuff - you will do well by outsourcing that aspect. Partner with those who can take care of aspects beyond you. For sure, you will recoup whatever you spend from your pay when you are done with the job. It might interest you to know that great websites are managed by different professionals handling different aspects of the website design and managing them.

Make contacts:

Making known what you have to offer is where marketing come into the picture. As you work on producing killer designs, also make contacts with people (potential clients) around you. What use is bread just lying on a shelf in a supermarket if not bought? Hence, while you send sample website designs and your proposal to individuals and organisations also explore driving traffic using forums and social networks by spreading the word. You can upload samples of your website designs to your own website and then drive traffic from other places online to it so that they know just what you do and how to reach you for your services – this is because your homepage now serves as your e-office since we are speaking of it in perspective of E-homes.

Conclusion

The internet is fast becoming an extension of planet earth if it’s not so already – an electronic version of our world. It has led to the building of vast network between communities and businesses never before taught possible. Not people interact and do business not restricted to geographical location.

With the opportunities created by the World Wide Web website designing has become a lucrative business for those engaged in it, and the best have the capacity to earn big. You too can! So far, I described websites as e-homes to emphasis how important it is as a need for all seeking web presence.  I then proceeded to write on what the conditions are if you want to join those generating income via website designing. They include: building your skill, registering for a hosting service, creating partnership and sourcing for clients or marketing if you like. However I will close by leaving you with this, for you to succeed as a website designer and to earn good money from it you must uphold integrity, have an eye for detail, be passionate, know when to involve someone better in certain aspects if you want to deliver with regard to quality; and above all you must be creative and research continually to discover how to improve your designs – particularly graphics.

Apply all you have read and you will reap the reward that comes from website designing (developing e-states as it were). Cheers.
