mrperfect: Add adsense in mobile version of your site. According to google tos you can't add more than three adsense ín a page.

doncigalo: @spike C I take it that you're part of those developers that know what they are doing, right ? Your a joke and a disgrace if you consider yourself a developer/designer of any sorts.


Im laughing in wugubantini, look at your websites and their logos !! Did you use MSWORD to design them ? Do you even know how to use or what fireworks is ?

Your websites are so poorly designed; no overall design concept, no colour scheme, your menus are terrible, you lack any form of design consistency, your incapable of producing your own graphics as you rely on free icons, you text layout is terrible (ever heard of left/right/justify alignment), your command of English is atrocious. What is worrisome is that you actually think you've built something. You need to wake up and stop deluding yourself.

I can say that you are a perfect example of the title of this post; WHY MOST NIGERIAN WEB DEVELOPERS FAIL.

You should change your slogan from "We give you wings to your dream" to "We give you wings to your doom" because if anyone should engage your services it will only lead to their failure!

@Michky Your a hundred percent correct. However concerning your app, could you start a new thread and lets see what the one percent of us that know what we are doing can come up for you.

Michky: Most Nigerian developers fail because they are greedy cheap ppl who, like housin agents, want to rip you off at the slightest opportunity. Many of you should have either made it big from referals or patnershp but the 5naira consultation fees and inconsiderate hyper-billin of clients have destroyd most of you. There r many nigerians out there wit gr8 ideas but no funds dat you could work wit and share the spoils but yall r lazy hyennas who wud keep blamin everythin on others.*hiss* I av nt even mentiond d fact that many nigerian developers are olodos. U'r empty upstairs and u know almost nothin about coding. U'r similar 2 ordinary road side fulganizers. God help u al. Imagine i askd 1 of u 2 do a job 4 me. He agreed but said i shd pay 50% upfront which i dint mind. Problem was, dis guy has no contact info (xcpt his fone & email) and he wantd me 2 pay cash @ mr biggs on a public holiday. What if i nd u 2 correct a part of d web app dat i dont lyk? (i askd him). He said av i nt seen his website? If i like his site, i wud lyk wateva he wil do. Idiot! What if he bails? (i askd myself), my 50k is gone wit d wind, just lyk dat! Wel, i dint gv him d free lunch. Haha. & after tryn odas (even wit a/c nos), they cudnt even get it done ryt. Wel, u al shd either work as a unit, or push d best 1s 4ward, or stop calin urself developers cos u S.uc.k!

cryptic: I also think it is very imbecilic for you to say I stupidly generalized when I said the fact. The bold statement is also absolutely incorrect. Most websites being built here use CMSs(Most either use wordpress or Joomla). The banks use frameworks. Listen dude, as far as IT is concerned, Africa is in its infant stage of development. I lived in America for quite a while and I have met with quite a number of IT pros. I met with John Resig the Javascript Evangelist( The inventor of Jquery) in 2009 after the 2009 Jquery conference and I was inspired. Don't get me wrong, I am not trash talking our jobs here but the Poster said the fact.

cryptic: As for the website you asked me to take a look at, I will try to detect if there is either a framework or maybe a CMS. If it is a hand coded job, then I think it is a really great job but the developers of the website have to work on the UI as the UI is really poor.

cryptic: Show us what you are made of sir. You can't just debunk my assertion. Give us links to jobs you built from the scratch.
