It depends on your position

In Nigeria

Junior devs earn anything between 80-250k larger startups like opay, paystack, terragon grp etc could even go as high as 300-350 depending on how talented you are

Mid level guys earn anything from 250-600, again depends on the company.

Seniors earn 600 and above. A dev once told me andela seniors earn about 800 upwards, alongside company perks, like lunch, transport and bonuses etc

Many senior and mid level devs move on to remote jobs though, especially the very talented ones. That’s where the money is since you earn in dollars or euros depending on the form that employed you. At that point you’d be talking over a million per month and yes they’re more common than you think


Below is a junior developer opening on stackoverflow so you get the drill. It doesn’t mean such jobs are easy to get, that’s why I said the very talented ones

Seniors are upwards of $70,000

you are very funny

If you find python too hard then am afraid programming is not for you. I learnt C++ first, then Java during my school days. Coming to python it was obviously easier to get a hang than most languages.

Web dev is saturated and watered down. Unless you are really good at what you do, and you work for top clients, then you'd be competing with all these bootcamp interns and copy and paste Indians.

In the 2000s, web devs made a lot of bucks just designing a HTML CSS static page. Not anymore.

Anyway, to the question. I'd say it depends on the project. But a project as basic as three pages of static website should be pegged at 200k.

The problem is many of you get the talent and fail at the marketing.. But marketing brings the money.

No matter how good a product is, if it failed its marketing, it would hardly sell.

What if I told you that I know someone who does not code but has managed to build a multi million business out of just WordPress set up?

You guys should learn marketing... It is very important.

How many of you have a blog where you talk about what you do? Do you know how much that alone can bring when it is well optimized?

But you are here saying it is saturated... That sound to me like someone who has failed at positioning.

If you a full stack developer, you shouldn't earn less than 250k

These days Nigerian companies want an IT personnel to do the job an entire IT department

I strongly advise web developers to look beyond Nigeria and focus on the international market

If I can earn more than $1k as a content writer, a web developer should earn much more

How can one be a content writer

It's so saddening to see guys here watering down an average income for devs. If you're good at what you do, you should be raking in dollars not Naira. Entry-level/ junior devs earn between $65-120k per annum (divide that by 12 and multiply by 410).

However, you have to be on world's best or international standard before you can earn that, which is where most problems lies for Nigerians cos we like to cut corners

I haven't failed at anything. Matter of fact I'm not even into web dev. I do Android and iOS. So watch yourself with the hasty assumptions.

Marketing is key, I agree. But it would be easier if amateurs didn't provide a cheap alternative for clients.

Look, don't wait to know everything. You go learn tire. Get the basics and move on to the next one. When you are working on projects you'll learn the rest as they come.

Matter of fact, web dev needs you to learn everyday while on the job because technologies are changing and updating at a rapid pace.

They don't want to do the hard work but want all the benefits, Nigerians too like short cut.

Exactly what I said, it’s a lot cheaper for the company to pay 70k to hire the same level of talent remotely in india or Africa than to pay 130k plus in the US
