Looking at the skills and stress involve in Web developing, i think the salary scale of web developers should increase drastically soon because Nigeria is really Moving towards that. Because at present - 2018, Web developers in Nigeria earn:

Web/App Developer: 200k - 280k per month for entry level with experience on html, php, javascript, css
Web/App Developer: 300k - and above per month for experts with experience on html, php, javascript, jquery, css, asp.net, sql, etc.

However if you want to be an entrepreneur then your salary depends on you and how you negotiate with your client. some entrepreneur earns as low as 300k per month in web design, some earn as low as 1.6M per Month..
Meaning one can earn higher than this as an entrepreneur. ... However as an entrepreneur its not all the time business comes in. so one need to be smart&prayerful and by the Grace of God all will Go well.

It depends on how good you are, the type of site you want to build and the kind of client involved.

Thanks

your upstairs matters more than grade. develop ur self beyond wat u studied. YouTube is a tool.

yeah, Youtube has been really helpful in my developer journey, taught me pretty much all i know with the exceptions of some exemplary books

Updated: As a web/App developer, i will advise you go as far as getting skills in Digital Marketing because
Web/App developement skils + Digital marketing skills = #350,000 to #450,000 Per month in Nigeria today which is very much likely to increase soon, just sell yourself well (higher than what some managers earn)
This is so because most industry are tending towards the digital world and in-other not to waste millions of Naira on campaigns with no result.
And as an entrepreneur you can make as high as #2,000,000 to #5,000,000 in a month [b](please note as a [b]web-App developer/ digital Marketing Specialist, the sales is solely defendant on the sales team, yours is to push the brand out there and make the brand well known not sales, however if you can include sales into yours then you are making far more money)[/b] [/b]

This is just the reality

Are you just cooking figures up or what is your source for this figures ?

@ojive I want to apply for a web development bootcamp (Html, Javascript, css, php and so on). Duration is 3 months and Fee is 200k.

My concern is the fee, do you think it's worth it?

While they are some website designers earning 5k per project and 15k per month here

correct, web designer + digital marketing skills is boom, you can earn as low as 450k monthly and as high as 600plus based on the company you work with
