SumitI love programming. I love marketing and web development, too. The point is that we need to take responsibility for our choices—our choices to make better use of our time and resources, our choices to make a living wage. It’s just as important to take responsibility for our choices as it is to work for a living.
You can’t say that a lack of a job is the only reason to not take a job. There are many reasons to not take a job. We live in a society in which the only way to make a living wage is to work for a company. Unfortunately, that means that many people get used to working for the company, not realizing that they get used to the money that they work for, and then don’t spend any of it on their own entertainment.
Its easy to forget that most people are working for companies for a good portion of their lives. When you’re working for a company that you like, you are doing a lot of work for the company. This is a good thing. However, there are many good companies out there that don’t require your services. It is possible to work at one of those companies and be happy in that job. It is also possible to work at a company that does require your services and not like it.
That’s all marketing. It’s all about making your company look good. It’s all about getting people to buy your products and services. It’s all about getting more people into your business. It’s all about getting more dollars out of your pocket.
The marketing game is much different than the web development game. At a company level, marketing is more about helping your customers out. In web development the focus is on building websites that sell. You are not going to be selling your product or your services to just anyone. A good web developer should know what your customers want, and how to get them to do what they want. You can go to a bad web developer and just hire a bunch of random web designers to build websites for you.
Marketing is an important skill to have because there are three major marketing channels: Search Engine Marketing (SEM), which is a method of getting traffic to your web site in exchange for a reward, e-mail marketing, and outbound linking. The SEM channel is where you will get your website listed in search engines like Google and Yahoo, and the e-mail marketing channel is where you will get mail blasts to your customers telling them about what you do.
The best thing about web development is that you get to focus on your core business, the one thing that everyone talks about. To do this you need a knowledge of the various marketing channels and the tools to use them.
It’s a tough skill to learn. Since the late 1990s I have taken courses in basic web development and marketing and found that in order to learn effectively, I had to learn all that I could about each one. But as the years have gone by I’ve come to realize that web development and marketing are two sides of the same coin. As we’ve all learned, the only way to monetize your website is to charge for the services it provides.
A lot of people have the misconception that one day they will be able to charge for their services. Well, they may not be able to charge anything at the start (which is why a lot of websites are free), but they will be able to start charging after they have built a nice following.
