Best skill to learn for freelancing?

[Deleted member 403]

Becoming a freelancer when your completely new to the game can be a challenge to say the least. Some ask how can I do it? What skills are the best to learn as a starting point in your view? Personally it’s hard to speculate or make recommendations without knowing the specific interests of the individual before hand

There are many threads related to recommendations for making money with different skills. I always think that you should not choose the one that pays the most, on the contrary you should choose the ones you have and develop them, try to be better and seek to generate profits with them.

Well, this will depend on what you really are good at. But i usually advise freelancers to have writing skills. Irrespective of their main skills. Copywriting skills will be necessary in your own business, in pitching your gigs, in your day to day life even in simple conversation. Thus, i would say, one must at least have writing skills in his arsenal.

In my honest opinion, the best skill to learn for freelancing is programming and web design. This is because the earnings one would get from using these skills to freelance is more than other freelancing activities like posting to get paid or writing articles. Also having design skills is also fantastic as there is a lot of demand for designers.

The basic skill for online freelancing is good written English. Most of the sites are using English as the main language and if you are good in written English then you can write articles that can earn you good money. For starters you can join forums to hone your basic skills. For the computer users I think good typing skills can be an advantage.
