What online professions do you recommend?

Question

Distant work

Friends, I did not think that I would ask such questions, but I am completely confused. I am 17 years old, finished school, and that's how I spent 4 months studying website layout, which is extremely small for monetization, but I will return to this later. I’m entering a technical university and here’s the problem itself: all my life I’ve been annoyed by the fact that I’ve been sitting on my mother’s neck and graduating from school I’ve been waiting for the second coming of Christ in order to finally start earning money, they say, I’ll have time to study layout of sites, develop in this direction and finally earn money. Haha, I guess I've never been wrong. If you go to freelancing, you will see an extremely disgusting picture with 70+ responses and wild competition, in which it will be extremely difficult to advance. (thanks to the courses "master layout in 6 weeks and go freelancing") you can get a job in a web studio, where it will be much easier for a beginner to get at least for an internship, but even here there is a problem, in order to do this, you need to wait 4 years of study. Therefore, I won’t be able to make money on layout. it will take a lot of time to constantly monitor orders, and I really don’t want to wait 4 years. And so I think to leave the layout of sites as a hobby, which I will do and develop further, but change the main activity. And the question is, where? What professions can you advise at home? My eyes fell on SMM. What can you say about this industry? Does the industry need SMMs? And how long will it take me to study SMM qualitatively? Continue to typeset layouts and upgrade your skills or hit another industry? Oh, forgive me here for my writings, I'm just really confused and don't know

Answer 1

Earning on the Internet?
Do not take it for a joke, but you will earn more with your hands - construction, mowing grass.
You will not find orders right away, the competition is terrible and you will most likely waste your time studying all this in vain.
Learn languages, start at least with php and fill your skill during your studies.

Answer 2

you're looking for the wrong job. you want to get a job, this is not the right approach. You have to offer services.
Do you do layout like this? are you doing well?
if so, create a website, create templates, make business cards.
and advertise that you offer layout services. do not look for a job, but offer the service a link to a site with your work, the deadlines in which you do it. I can tell you about promoting your services .... but not here, in a personal message what you need to promote without money ...
But you need not look for work, but to promote services ..... it is possible to complete design courses.
these are in-demand services, but everyone is looking for an employer, go the other way. Offer your services
you don't need monitoring..... place ads, fill your site.... set up a feedback system.
instead of monitoring, develop your site.
If your work is of high quality, within a reasonable time frame. the choice is great .... the site is well designed, there will be no problems.
although your specialty is really not in great demand. All large companies order from three resources. But you can win some market share.
perhaps it makes sense to retrain for a useful and sought-after specialty.
e.g. Welder. Turner. CNC programmer ......
then where there is no grip, but to do layout in your free time.

Answer 3

What professions can you advise at home?

There are no such.
Get the thought of "working from home" out of your head. Work from home is a myth created by schoolchildren for schoolchildren like you.

And so I think to leave website layout as a hobby, which I will do and develop further

You do not need this activity, and even more so this is a hobby. There are a lot of people here, the industry is overflowing with IT people who are not needed in our country, vacancies are only in million-plus cities, outside the Moscow Ring Road, salaries in IT are like those of an auxiliary worker in Moscow.
If I were 17 years old in 2019, I would go into auto business. Learn how to repair foreign cars and then open your own business. Anything is better than learning all this crap. Now every second person has a car, you will not be left without work + useful skills. And few people need websites now, they will soon disappear altogether, only monopolists will remain. Yes, and you yourself saw that the competition is wild - if you were a private auto mechanic - you would have well 5-6 competitors in the area, and on the Internet you can have them indefinitely.
