In your opinion what skill is worth learning? In 2018 and beyond.
I know that there is no get rich scheme everything is about investing time.
So I want to invest my time in learning something worth my time.
I can spend about 2hrs to learn additional skills. (coz I am a student)

My Current Skills:
1. Basic Logo Design in Illustrator : got 6 orders till now 5$ each.
2. Video Editing (Intermediate level) (SVP 15, Premier Pro, Camtasia 9) : YT Videos of my channel, no actual client orders.
3. HTML, CSS (Beginner)
4. Know how to make a completely responsive site using elementor and divi WP plugin. : No clients yet.
5. Know how to setup a Web Server.

So What skill can I learn to be a fully fledged Web Designer, Graphic & Motion designer and Content Writer ?

Courses I have in my udemy account:

Thanks for Reading...
Thanks in advance:)
 
You can't be everything.

Just pick one that you think you'd be better at.

If you're going to tech side, go for php, Ruby on Rails, Java, JS.

Or Just Swift (iOS) - this is the hottest right now
 
I vote for 'writing' if you have interest in it. Writers don't lose their jobs regardless of what happens. The world needed content 100 years ago, and will keep on needing for the next 100.

You want to do everything ? Better focus on or two things and outsource rest. Among these, do not choose content writing as it is already crowded.

I'll give it a try by writing on my blog, thanks..

Okay, So I should be able to design and code websites from scratch and outsource the rest.
Thanks for the advice.
 
I know a little bit about video edition, my gigs about this at fiverr were making a profit for me some time ago

but what I would really like is to learn how to draw and make money from it
 
You oulined you had some coding skills in html. Upgrade these so you also can code java. Then you can create apps.

Or

Learn seo, ppc, social media marketing, etc.

This way you can offer any clients a full service.
 
Learn Internet Marketing, mate.

Yeah learning it mainly from here. but It requires a good investment currently I have about 30$-40$ I would like to grow to 1000$ and go all in with IM.

Have you bought reviews for your gigs? coz I posted 4 gigs on video editing and logo designing also done some seo, i got good impressions but "zero" orders.

Yeah I am working on Java, JS, python.

I still have to learn site seo, but I am good at YT seo I have total of 40 videos on my channel about 20 of those rank in first 5 results in YT search (low-medium difficulty KWs).

I never bought reviews
 
If you could learn how to bring the targeted traffic. You will win the Game.
 
Your skillset needs to be coherent so you can offer a full service to clients or indeed for your own projects.

It is pointless being good at youtube seo but not being good at creating professional videos.

Just as it is pointless being good at html web design if you cannot drive traffic to the sites you create.

If you cannot offer a full service you are best getting a job with a company that does, as it will be difficult to land clients consistently.
 
Hi, I am trying web design and development.But can't understand how to complete this?
 
i would say focus on the one thing yoy are most passionate about. When you like what you do its going to show in the quality of your work. And when you do what u love it wont feel much like work.

Yeah I agree, I like designing stuff and editing videos a lot...

I never bought reviews

oh, awesome. all orders from good seo?

Yeah!

These skills are pretty basic (DiVi sucks donkey ass BTW) and known by most already. And as this is an IM forum primarily, focus on learning IM and make some real money.
 
I think the best skill to learn today is SEM.
Mostly because its the most needed job in the market right now (well maybe still developers)...
If you can successfully run Google, bing and Facebook campaigns you can get a pretty decent job.

Yeah Thanks, I am doing a bit of IM like selling SM services (reseller), building up e-mail list, etc. The goal is to invest what I earn from my other skills (GD, WD, etc) into IM.

Thanks, it takes a bit of investment to test different strategies which I intend to earn through my other skills.
