@Op
As a freelancer what to charge varies from customers, timeline, and project needs.

for Wordpress, Opencart, Magento, Silverstripe, Joomla and Drupal... I charge between $400 - $800


for Wix, Shopify. I charge between $750 - $1500

for Custom development: it's between $1,500 - $3,500

for custom server setup, VPS configuration, relay email server configuration: it's between $200 - $750


Depending on what you requirmemt is, the aforementioned prices are set to change ooo...

I've actually submitted a quote of $12,000 to a client. Problem was he was bidding for $4,000 as what he can afford. Well, the project is still pending until he gathers enough resources to fund it.

In rare cases, I've actually done a website as low as 40k... (you'll know how quick this will be)

The more money a client pays the more attention I pay to the project. That's called Value for Money.

But the client don't come everytime ooo, so what I do when I don't have any client is, I learn a new thing. You see... Still expanding my Horizon.


FYI: 99.9% of my clients are Nigerians

Ur price is incredible Nigerians pay you in USD or u give them the equivalent ?

What would be your reason then?

If you could read, you'll see that I never had any problems with him taking the job.

I expressed concern about him needing the 150k to settle bills when he earns 1.5m monthly.



I put those in bold so you won't miss them. I'm also not expecting you to provide any reasonable answer to that anomaly since the OP himself couldn't answer it either.

Good question bro.

Some pay in USD while some use the current market rate.
Some are Nigerians in Nigeria and some are Nigerians is Diaspora

My initial quote to you was not for picking a 150k job, it was for using the 150k to SETTLE BILLS.

Don't change the narrative Mr. Developer. grin

Since qtguru couldn't respond to this, it's safe to assume that he is lying about earning 1.5m monthly.

If I had a bill of ₦180k and see an opportunity to earn ₦150k (with minimal effort) towards offsetting that bill, I will take it and pay the bill

I understand you bro!! But not in programming or any tech related career. You can only survive if you're really good at what you're doing. Keep practicing keep reading documentations keep learning new tools and framework will be introduced which you have to learn along side it. No room for lazyness in technology career or else you will fade away then abandoned it for those people who really serious about it. It can't be saturated like other fields. Get 10 guys today buy each of them a laptop and data to start learning programming or any tech related field, 2 years later, you will be surprised that hardly 3 guys will still remain learning while the other 7 must have abandoned it.

It is true Programming is exhausting and takes alot I often refer people to try out:

1. LMS You don't need to code learn to manage a platform like Moodle
2. Shopify
3. Virtual Assistant
4. UI/UX Designer
5. Video Editing, if you are good, you can get gigs remote and sell montages
6. Specialized toolset skills, like maybe a specific solution e.g Articulate Studio


There are so many ways to make cash asides tech, the advantage tech has, is you can show your proof of work and it requires specialized skills so if you know your tool. you will always be in demand.


I have been doing this freelance for a while but despite that it's not everything I know, in the slack group airsaylongcome posts the most IT Support jobs that I didn't even know was an option. We Nigerians spend much time on NL and only chase what is popular

Lying will lead you to Hell. Repent.
Anytime you lie and don't say truthful words, you run the risk of exposing yourself spiritually and holistically bro reason ur boy abeg to harmful demonic vibes that may in fact send you to damnation. Repent so that it will not be your portion.

When it comes to matters of intellect you won't see any lady on this section, because they don't strive to make it.

I think clients these days are skeptical in handling out projects, because of the notion that they can get everything for free from the internet. Some of them would post jobs on upwork only waiting for a free ride.

Lol! You are trolling bro. ₦1.5m is just a little less than $20/hr. That's entry level pay for a developer. But I get the basis of your doubt. I too didn't believe that people in Nigeria earn that amount

For perspective, this is a role for someone with Minimal Support experience. That's ₦3.4m per month for a rookie IT tech

Hahahahahahahahaha...Trust me there are a lot of ladies in Tech who follow these kinds of threads on NL. Most are just afraid to talk because of the testosterone levels in these threads. It's mostly a dixk measuring contest that they can't cope with

Boss can you put me through some? Please let's chat on WhatsApp. 0.7.0.5.6.2.4.3.5.1.2. Thanks
Also go to pdfdrive .com and download PDF on HTML, CSS and JavaScript....
That's for the frontend, if you don't wanna stop at frontend, you can also get that of MySQL, python and php...

Download videos on YouTube too, there are many resources online but I would best advice to learn from a computer institute then also implement on ur own too, knowledge from ur teacher and yours will go a long way...

Practice, pray, work hard...

Depends on the gig, 3.g Moodle there is no free resource it's so bad that Moodle devs are scarce, of you know Moodle dev well, you will get high paying ggis, but the development is stressful, there are many more platforms like that

JavaScript / HTML + CSS / Chrome API

it's easier if people join the slack group airsaylongcome is a strong person in our group and he shares alot of info on gigs and jobs. NL here it's the same old web gigs people are looking at.

tensazangetsu20 can attest to that

This would be a long process for me to be honest, data scientists don't get gigs?

Sorry for the many questions.

For learning management system, Moodle is THE defacto Solution. I also mess around with OLAT, Sakai, openEDX.

For Library Management there's Koha or Evergreen
