You're right on letting them know firsthand, but it still hurts when you lose jobs just because of your nationality

I've lost jobs because of Nigerian reputation. Freelancers goal in Nigeria is to jump on a freelance visa and work outside the country or outside Lagos and enjoy your money. Those are the options for us

Exactly. I'm looking to leave the country this year. At least, the fact that you're not based in Nigeria is an advantage, even if you're Nigerian

Bro, how is the pay as a pentester? I did CyberSecurity last year, presently running a Penetration Tester Course online is it worth it? I have a background already in HTML/CSS and average on Javascript.
The pay is very good especially if you have a certification. Learn the basics...TCP/IP , Linux OS, the command line for a start.

I prefer TS over JS, but I can share resources in the slack, plus i assist people with their Upworks profile, the goal is having community of devs we can outsource our work to, soonce a gig comes, i can send to another dev add my money and we both get paid and move on. I don't believe in just me knowing alot of tech without sharing it with another. Outsourcing is the sweet spot, the issue is finding competent devs.


Please share the resources, also just starting out and building my folio. I will share my progress in the slack channel.

To be sincere, web development is becoming stale....so much competition there....
With a domain and Hosting, I earn too little because there r others who will even pay less.
5k is within the gain range after deducting domain and hosting
Thats way too small maybe you should try using Nigerian hosts or hosts that give you the option to pay in naira.

Let me ask you this,

Assuming you earn 1.5 m monthly but came across a gig that earn you a quick 500usd that's 250k-ish parallel market and it takes like 6 days worth of work, would you do it regardless of your financial bracket ?

I would take it obviously but my reason for taking it would not be because I want to offset 250k bills.

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

But I think the best is for you to contact me through my signature below the prices.

10mm @N415, 000 - 133pcs

12mm @N410, 000 - 93pcs

16mm @N410, 000 - 52pcs



10mm is #340.

Great I am on it. I already have a Certification on CNSS ( Certified Network Security Specialist) but for me that look as the basic as Pentester Certification is like mastering the art. How available are remote works on as a Pentester because I am on a paid employment already. I am really glad to come across a Pentester as they are not as common as developers

You will reach a point regardless of what you earn, money at hand quickly means alot. But I can't make you believe you me anyway so

Bro.. don't say much. I can totally relate. It doesn't matter how much you earn. Sometimes you need money that aren't even in what you earn. We call it emergency money.. cos it comes and go.

As as dev myself, sometimes I delve into selected graphics jobs just to settle some bills. And my graphics job, no matter how small. It's $50. So If I run 3 designs in a space of 24 - 48hrs, that's $150. Convert to naira... aboy you go flex weekend small.

Na so naija things dey be...Ones you start up something, everyother person will follow up without being creative..

Back in 2009, computer science was a hot cake, but today so many computer science graduate are not even doing anything related to it...They bastardized the whole thing.

For this Nigerian, soon programming and developing will website will go as cheap as free...just soon.. grin

100 people hustling for one position, the pay go reduce...Because labour supplied has out numbered labour demanded.
I understand you bro!! But not in programming or any tech related career. You can only survive in this field if you're really good at what you're doing. You keep updating, Keep practicing, keep reading programming documentations, keep learning new introduced tools and framework. 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.

For non company projects. I have charged like 300 USD for a simple JavaScript carousel which had like ten lines of code. I however charged someone in Nigeria like 800k to build a WordPress theme. Only 150k was paid and I kuku locked the site. They no send till today. That was the end for me and working for Nigerians.
You're greedy, almost 2k dollars for a simple WordPress theme? shocked

@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

Nigerians could be the worst you would deal with. I was to work with one guy for an assignment, 4 actually and I did one free, these assignments include creating websites and using Flask in python, one included creating a type of game too. I told him, since its assignment, he should bring 60k for the 3, I'll leave one out as he was half done with it, He said 25k. I just blocked him without even saying anything.


You say wetin. You never meet Indians. Nigerians dey learn for where Indians dey. Indians go frustrate your life to the last sotey you go begin reason make you kpai yourself

If you can study and get enough lab hours and a certification then you can get remote jobs easily, even in naija jobs are becoming more available.

Yeah Yeah...

What most people don't understand is.

Money is Value.

What you put out there is what will bring in money for you.

What Value are you building? Add a price to it, make your Value unique and you will get the money you put on it.

See my proof of yarns... make dem no think say na lie. I urge myself and everyone to be better each passing day.


Pamper your clients. New or Old. Regardless what they say initially, if you're good they will pay.
