How To Make A Living Designing Sites For Small Businesses

You don’t have to be an expert designer to know how to upload a theme, these days many small businesses don’t have time to update their sites or do anything related to their sites which is why they often look for ways to get their site optimized and often reach out to web designers.

You don’t have to be a web designer to learn how to make a site look great, WordPress is an awesome platform and there are marketplaces like ThemeForest.net that have thousands of professional looking themes that if you know a bit about WordPress you can easily charge a few hundred dollars to get a website up. Like I said you don’t have to be a professional web designer to do this, all you have to do is simply learn a bit of WordPress.

I’ll give an example, I recently completely redesign the website for a limo rental cape coral small business and it took me less than a day to do, the owner was so happy with the results and only charged him less than 500 dollars to do it, while some other guy wanted 2000.

I have also partnered with a buddy of mine who owns diseno web miami and we exchange clients back and forth when either of us are too busy.

So if you want to earn some part-time cash I would say learn WordPress, you can find tons of videos on YouTube about how to build sites using WordPress. Of course get yourself a website to advertise your services and find some clients, maybe friends and family to start building a portfolio. Once you have 10-15 clients you’ll be able to perhaps go full-time by simply doing 1-2 sites per week. A simple, yet effective way to start a part-time online business. Hope this advice helps.
