Not suprised in the slightest this guy is a coding teacher. You are phenomenal at it. Kinda reminds me of the lead developer at my internship.
Thanks!
Honestly pretty good video. I liked your approach to the reality that web dev is not always just straightforward coding, it does include page builders, CMS, shopify, etc etc etc. It's a wide industry with so many different avenues and demands from clients.
You have to learn to be adapatble and willing to grow your skills whichever route that involves.
100%
It was really relatable when you said that we feel lost when we start to build something on our own from scratch . There are so many little stuff which i have to google everytime that sometimes i feel like do i even know web dev at all.
That's normal, eventually you might google less but I certainly don't
@@dannydiscoverswhat a good way to get a solution for that cuz it be so frustrating to feel like that tbh, learning for 2months just to get confused is mad annoying ngl.
@@Gamer-kj3vi You improve by coding experience , the more experience you have coding and facing errors, theless you google, don't push yourself too hard I've been coding for a year now and i still searching things, not as much as i started or 6 months ago.
The thing is, getting good at coding in general is a skill requires time, sometimes, you will face the same/similar type error 2 times and then your brain will start to say "wait, i solved something like this before" and boom, you code a solution without googling it
@@Gamer-kj3vi code more confusion is just an opportunity for growth.
@@Gamer-kj3vi There is no solution, but you can change your mindset to understand this: If you really want learn something, your education will never end. You will never be "finished" learning anything.
The first 2 minutes of this video explained my current situation, you literally hit the nail there and thank you so much, I will keep learning and you just got a subscriber
Great to hear
bro I'm 16 and have learned HTML, CSS, JS and now learning React.js. my aim is to complete whole MERN stack in the next 6months with a lot of practice so I can do atleast an internship after 11th or 12th. I'm in 11th right now. but I'll try alll the opportunities you mentioned above 🖤🖤
Good luck!
If I were you I would take advantage of everything AI right now and get to speed. If not, then you'll be left behind. Things are changing too fast.
If you want an internship, focus on getting into university and keep up those projects. Internship is unlikely for a minor not in Uni, sorry to say
@@juggles5474 ohkayy 👍, I'll keep my practice up 🤞
@@cowl6867Yupp, I'm trying to take full advantage of AI and trynna keep myself up to date 🤌🤌
Thank you so much for this video. The number of insights and things that you give out are soo appreciated!
Thanks for commenting, that's why I make these videos
As an SEO specialist learning how to code, this was very valuable. A lot of these things are very important to clients
You have a lot of extra value to add for them
Man, you're so nice, helpful and even handsome.
No one ever told me of these small gigs. The most I saw/heard of "small gigs" was looking for freelance on freelance websites.
Your video changed my perspective. What would I lose by being active instead of passive. Nothing really for an undergraduate.
Im graduating in half a year and live in a country falling apart by circumstances, Im hoping to work online even at much lower salaries, which would stil be great locally, to support my old parents.
I really liked the video. It also indirectly gave me the obvious answer of "I need to work hard to start. I can't just study, remain passive and expect to find a job easily. I can start my own path"
I wish you a happy day/ life.
Thanks for the video and the encouragement man.
That was a lovely message! Wishing you the best of luck with your journey
u are so gay
Thats the one of the best videos about code and freelance, thank u so much.
Glad it was helpful!
I love the lighthouse tip. Can you do a video on an example report, how you contact the client and how much you charge them? That would be super helpful
Good idea - I actually did a similar breakdown to that in the free part of my course. You can access that when you sign up on www.framer.courses Even if you don't want to buy the course, you can learn the approach.
I think most sites have contact info
Sir what is code for encoding in make manoney apps
Finales de Junio
Thanks man, that's exactly where I am now. Still learning, already have a bit of knowledge but don't know how to monetize it as I need to keep learning
Start asap, you'll always have things left to learn
This is the first video i found specifically on this subject. I definitely need this because i quit my last job to become a software engineer. I am a 40 year old professional just learning to code having some undergrad courses from 20 years ago. I am competing with 16 years old😂.
Your experience is a bonus as a freelancer. People will trust you more than a 16 year old
@savingday I’m in the same boat with you. We got this! 💪🏾
"I am a 40 year old professional" ... Me Too! ... Welcome to the best part of your programmer Life.
Good Luck!
I'm rooting for you, You inspired me. Keep pushing, kindly come back here , I want to see your success. I'm 30 now and trying to recover from the last 5 years of wrong decision in my life.
I got in this video with low expectations and your tips here are really useful, thanks!
Great to hear!
thanks for great explanation, very informative and clean. keep up the good work
Glad it helped!
I’ve spent the last year and a half hammering on coding to point of building PERN stack apps and still struggle to get my foot in the door for an interview because I lack “commercial experience”. I think you just gave me my in! It literally pays to not overthink your value 😅
so what will you do
@@adekunle4672 Start small, start local. I have a good grasp on frontend, so I’ll design a pitch (let AI be my assistant here!), reach out to local businesses and offer simple design edits, performance optimisations, accessibility enhancements, and maybe some SEO services.
Great news!
Hey looking for an update. Any results?
Thankssss so much this video was very interesting and genuine 🤩 Subbed
Great news! Welcome
Watched for 6 minutes and i so so love you already.. Great, goona watch all your videos
Great! Thanks for commenting
Great tip! I already build Elementor websites as a job, one motivation to learn more css and learn js is to have the option to customize more.
Absolutely, it's also pretty fun to learn new things
This video deserves more likes en share... Thanks Danny
Thanks for commenting. The engagement will actually help promote the video
thank you for the informative video Danny
You're welcome. Thanks for watching
Thanks for the info. Really helpful! 🔥💯👍
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks a lot. Never knew about these. I've gained a new perspective and you've gained a new subscriber.
Great!
Great video with good advice. I would like it if you would put out more content like this.
I made another one for CSS and HTML specifically
Thank you very much . Succinct and clear.
You are welcome!
Great video. I watch a lot of career videos and the type of advice given here is rare and helpful. consider adding timestamps to the video, I think it will increase the video's rewatchability
one question I have is how to get discovered when a possible client faces an issue with an integration for example
Vid summary:
1. IOED (you think you get it but you don't) 0:48
2. ppl react by either going back to learn more and practicing or by giving up 1:29
3. Method 1: lighthouse reports 2:50
4. Bounce rate 4:40
5. Method 2: using Web builders and themes 5:20
6. Method 3: integration and analytics 9:05
Thanks
getting started is always the hardest, you overlook a lot of things until you actually do something all by yourself
Agreed
you are a kind person thanks for the video 😍
My pleasure
love the video, one of the best i found on this subject.
I was wondering tho, you're talking about finding someone's website to suggest improvements that we can make to it. How do we actually find those website and contact the clients? Same for finding potential clients who would want to customise a website made with wordpress.
You can search all of the local businesses in your area, usually they will have social media or email/phone numbers you can use to contact them. Hope that was helpful
search google maps for any item and find the businesses that only have social media tags for contact information.. Just an idea.
Thank you for your perspective!
Welcome!
Nice tips! Thanks for that
Happy to help!
great tips that are really practical
Great stuff John, thanks for commenting!
Thanks for the video those informations means so much to my career goals 🖤
No problem!!
thanks man that was helpful
Glad it helped
Great video, *thanks* !
Thank you for watching
I'm struggling with me decisions in the past years.I got distracted pretty easily and i need to blame myself about this.I chose a course about Frontend Developer,i made a discord server with my friends who want the same to use ,html,css,js.This video helped me ,i will saved and revisitate your channel.And i know it's a bad moment in my opinion,but happy new year and for everyone who reed this,i hope everything in your life it's okay.
If you can keep going, eventually you will get there
I hope :)@@dannydiscovers
Thanks For Your Advice
Love You Sir
Always welcome
Thank you for this.
no problem - I made a follow up video with 6 more options
Nice video man !
Thanks for commenting, I appreciate the support
You Sir, got a new subscriber. Nice content!
One question:
How do you work on your clinets websites? Do you ask for access for their CMS? Or what is the best practice?
Yes usually
I found it
Motivational
Thank you Sir 😊
All the best
Inspiring video!
I recommend pointing your microphone towards the source of the audio it's recording (your mouth). What you're recording is the reflection of your voice of the room which yields a bad recording.
That's really helpful thanks. Just move it higher up?
@@dannydiscovers Just a tad. You want to make sure you are recording on-axis meaning pointed directly at source audio. Especially with lav mics, they're usually designed to cut frequencies from the sides.
You're doing great with the quality content though! Just wanted to give my 2 cents as an audio engineer trying to get into software engineering :)
Thanks for the tips, I'll do that for the next video. I noticed other creators using this mic a bit lower so I just copied them. Let me know in the next video if you think it is better please
You are now my Go-to-channel
That's a great compliment
Thanks for this😊
No problem
Good video. I'll look into this.
Good luck
Really informative...I don't know why I didn't think of this...
Glad it helped
Thanks for the tips ;)
No problem!
great👍🏼i really like the info...
So glad!
Hello bro really love this video I have been coding for a year now I learnt html css JavaScript react and other css and JavaScript libraries bt yet to even get an opportunity for interview tho am still improving my slf bt staying motivated is getting difficult because I have not been making money with these skills
I know how tough it can be. Try creating profiles on freelancing platforms, doing cold outreach on LinkedIn and also offer people free work for a set number of hours etc. Building trust and experience will lead to well-paid work eventually
@@dannydiscovers thanks alot I will do those
you replying to everyone>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
true mentorship ngl
Try my best to anyway
Thanks Danny
You're welcome. Thanks for commenting
Good idea thanks
welcome
Low key chill gigs 🤙
Or high stress gigs, whatever pays
@@dannydiscoversyeah or high stress gigs or whatever! Beck yeah
Can completely relate to what you said. When I can't build anything by myself, I start again from ground zero in order fill the gaps. Ans this cycle keeps repeating. It's been a year since I started learning and i still can't build anything on my own ☹️.
I made a video on this called One HUGE mistake slowing your coding progress where I talk about that
Thanks! 👌
Welcome!
Dude, you've saved a life!!
Hope some of this helps
Thank you bro
You're welcome - more coming soon
Hello, I’m enrolled in a coding Bootcamp. I’m in week 10 of the program. I completed several projects including a group project . Where do you suggest me marketing my skills to start freelancing?
Make your own website and create a profile on upwork and linkedin
Thanks!
Welcome!
Thank you for the information! I wonder, how do I determine how much I will charge my client? can you give an example please, thank you.
Depends on the client and the value you bring. As well as the rates in your country
Thank you ❤ this vid helps a lot. 🙏 I didn't understand the Google analytics part, how can i get gigs that require me to add code snippets?
Glad it was helpful! You'll have to research it
Very, very, very underrated video.
Thanks! Trying to grow my channel so I appreciate the positivity
thank you so much
You're welcome! Check the other videos for more
Hello brother ,love from india ❤
Really helpfull
Happy to help
Yes please make a video on how to find small gigs
I made an upwork video that might help you
it would be better if the music were lower than that but, a great video
Good advice, I raised it up at the last minute thinking it was too low. Thanks for the feedback
@@dannydiscovers my pleasure
Thanks, I created a poll on my community page to ask everyone since your comment. I'm always trying to improve the videos for you all
@@dannydiscovers that's a great step
I just wish RUclips would add some A.I. feature to mute stupid background music in RUclips videos. So many RUclips videos have unnecessary background music...
Started html and css at 16 but listened to my dad and stopped. Wish I didn’t but I’m learning Lua now not going to give up this time.
Lots of languages and options.
Thank you so much ..may i ask you something?
If it doesnt bother u i cant focus on video while some musique on your voice is actually good and enough ..thank you so much
Yeah, in my recent videos there is less music
Great and concise! How to get clients to get started?
Cold calling ane freelance platforms
At first I learned to code for money but I can't help really fall for it and now I still make no money yet due to where I live it would be better if I have a degree to apply for a job and a remote market .Still keep trying it and trying to build a small project for local business.
Good luck! It is never easy
The video was great, pls can your put together the video on how to get the freelance gigs
Please check my video on Upwork. I discuss it there. "Secrets to a $1B industry"
Ok, thanks@@dannydiscovers
Guys, with the advent of website builders and generative AI, isn't it wiser to focus more on languages like python , c+ and java? Have a strong foundation in the web technologies to understand how to integrate different stacks? Just a suggestion but big ups to dude for great advice and everyone trying to learn abd become better. All the best guys.
Those languages are definitely also a good idea!
The thing is there will always be people who are just too dumb to know how to use the most basic of website builders and hence why these jobs still continue to pop up
This is the way.
very informative
Glad you think so!
Great video ♥, but I have a question how can you be sure that the businesses you completed work for will send you the money after you finish the job?
Use a contract
Very informative. Can you lower the volume of the music though. It’s so easy to get distracted by the music and block out your voice
Done
Hey Danny, im a beginner towards the coding words, and I have started to learn python, and when I started, the reason why I got into coding was to become a freelancer website manager/creator.. Would python still be a good language to learn before, or since I want to go towards website development. Would I switch to java, css and HTML???
Python is good for backend and AI stuff. I did JS and I mostly do front-end
We will make it
Good luck!
You look like a second life avatar
Hopefully that's a good thing
lol wow i play second life and thats kind of true
Can you tell me more on how i should going forward from this point. I've been learning some HTML and CSS basics (i haven't learned JS yet), even tho i can write some basic code, it is nowhere near an functionable web. Most of the webs i did is just plain (only include some colors,...). So my question is, should i learn JS next or practise my CSS more? My understanding of flexbox, grid is just clueless. And haven't worked with querries yet.
Go through the Odin Project and then try projects on frontend mentor. You 100% need to know flexbox
where do you find these client opportunities? Does lighthouse give you different jobs for clients or is it only just used to see the status of websites you come across
Yeah, I show how I use it in the free course on www.framer.courses
I learned html & CSS with 14/15, but stopped learning because they changed the layout of the app I was working with (they made it worse). I am Curently learning python, after finishing my course I'll pick up where i left. Any advice on what to "especially" focus on, while optimising a site.
It changes all the time. Research SEO
I understand the “inspect” to see a websites code, but when we’re actually modifying it for a customer, how do we access their code?
Wherever they have it hosted
I had one question
Like Elementer pro is paid
and many plugins and builders are also paid
Then how i can practice that as i can learn from various videos and Courses ...
I never really used elementor too much - You can learn the basic version by running wordpress locally etc. I use Framer for no-code work - I do a free intro course on it at www.framer.courses/
That's great video. but how to find those people to pay you? Also aren't they just gonna check out the solution on the internet?
You have to search for them. Most people are not technical enough to solve these solutions alone and would rather pay an expert
you are my best
you are
Thanks for the video Danny, would you be able to share where you source your work from? ✌
Upwork, LinkedIn, referalls and RUclips.
I made a video on Upwork you can watch
@@dannydiscovers Thanks for the reply! I've already watched the Upwork video and it inspired me to sign up!
Thanks for the great video! But how can i contact the customer? Do you just email them or how do u do it?
Have to get creative. I use LinkedIn a lot
How do i edit and sent changes to cliants to start i have a basic grasp or css ans html while learning js i havent started with lenex or servers and stuff so im comfused but i do want to try as i see it as a good motivater?
Very broad question. Usually you need git
nice content
Thanks
I am 13 and really good with python. Now i am planning to make my own game. If I could just make money to buy a laptop or computer that nothing could stop me
Good luck
Hi tnx for the tips.I'm wondering though let's say I find a client and the said person agreed, how can I have an access to the codes of their website? Like how can I permanently add my input?I'm totally clueless about this🤷
It depends on the platform. I would just google it depending on the platform. Shopify has a built in editor for example
@@dannydiscovers tnx you're the best
Thanks!
@@dannydiscovers In this vein, how do you gain trust (in order to access dev tools and source code of a company's website)?
The right question here is that, where to find these clients? Like where do they ask if they encountered these problems?
LinkedIn and Upwork
I'm supposed to pay attention to his advice but I keep being drawn to the color of his eyes LoL never seen such a beautiful color before
Too kind
so good
Glad you like it
Do you think it's worth it to learn C# for 3D games that will take years to create especially if I'm a solo 13 year old coder??
I first started python then I quit it I moved to java then I quit just like python.Then Html,css and js ,swift,ruby and so on .
I'm lost as to what to do
I would like app or game development but I just don't know what language to start
It's probably worth learning something reasonably deeply. You can make basic 3d games using no code tools like Spline relatively quickly. But you can also do some 3D in JavaScript with ThreeJS.
Id suggest talking to someone that works in game dev first because I know nothing about it. From what I can tell is it is difficult, lower paid and longer work than other coding industries. Definitely find a mentor though. I know this answer is vague but I do recommend you learn one thing well before quitting for something new
@@dannydiscovers Thanks for the advice👍👍👍👍
I've chosen app development with Java and I think It's the best language for me because of its write once ,run anywhere property and it's popularity in the app development industry
I took a game dev class and I used pygame. Python has alot of libraries for game dev. But I'm sure c# or Java or any language is ok for game dev as well. From what I've experienced, its mostly math heavy. Like trigonometry. You use Trig to calculate angles.
For example if you wanted to make a game that an enemy is heading towards the player, you would use Trig to find the angle to point to.
@Vision1-pd2he imo you shouldn't be focusing on the niche that you are going to get into when starting out, but you would rather instead get into programming in general and see if you are interested in it, I would start out by just learning a programming language that you are interested in(you are already doing that with java), and then after you get good at it you can start to explore other options like other programming languages or maybe think about the niches that you might want to get into now that you are acctually ready and are aware of other options and how it is like to code
thats just how I think its best to get into programming and someone might disagree with my aproach
Good for banking jobs too
Does degrees required i learned next js and build so many full stack projects like twitter clone netflix clone e-commerce disney+ clone and many more i am currently studying in class 11th but i dont want to do more
You shouldn't need a degree to get started. Try to build an original project maybe? Do one or two freelance projects for cheaper/free
@@dannydiscovers Thank you so much for suggestion and your web dev roadmap video was so good that video helped me lot
cool video)
Thanks
Been learning Python for 8 months now..Kinda very slow as i learn it along side college and work…So anything way i can earn as suggested in the video but for python users?
Web scrapers are an option
I'm 17 and I have learn html , python,java and about to finish c++
But the problem is my laptop 💻is corrupted and I don't know if i could do it from my phone
I think you really need a laptop to work
@@dannydiscovers thank you
Hi I would like a video for finding small jobs please.
I posted a reel on instagram about that @danny.discovers
I can make another longer video on the topic here though
I dont know youll get this but im new to this coding thing have no idea whatsoever how can i start learning as a beginner
