- logn 11y agoBuild a portfolio. Do real projects for people. If you really have no experience, then you can offer your services to people at a low cost. I'd shy away from people who need things completely free unless they're legit, and either a charity or have no chance of making money either (e.g., a band). Look on craigslist for projects. I wouldn't spend another dollar on learning anything. Or, do projects for yourself. You can host them on GitHub for free and open source it.
- vezycash 11y ago1. Freelancer.com 2. Fiver.com My most important advice to you is to make friends who are programmers. As many as possible. How? Join programming themed forums, introduce yourself, help others out when you can by answering questions and offering to help any other way. Programming competitions online would help you pick up new skills and experience faster. Lastly, write programs everyday. It doesn't really matter what you write. It doesn't also matter if it's a little script or a large one. Keep at it and you'll be alright. PS: Be patient and try to have fun. Thinking mainly about money right now will likely frustrate you. Good luck.
