I am a Software Developer: 12 Side Hustles Made me 12K last year
A software developer is a demanding role. Good software developers are really hard and it is a very high-paying job. However, as you will find out below there are many other ways to get some additional money.
1. List in local directories
Although the days of everyone using big phone books to find a business are over, there’s nothing stopping you from listing in a local business directory. Some irreducible customers will be able to contact you if they need your services.
- https://www.google.com/business
- https://www.bingplaces.com
- https://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/local-listings
A lot of small businesses don’t have enough budget to spend on expensive development companies, and will instead look for freelancers in directories. This is why this medium should not be completely neglected.
Note also that the conversion rate will probably be higher since the contact will be more direct and perhaps even more interested.
