I have started learning WordPress and elementor pro about 1 month ago with YouTube videos. Currently I am able of making simple web pages and using elementor. Also I am a little bit familiar with CSS. I wanted to start getting projects but as I searched through freelanceing websites I felt I am not ready and good enough. What is your recommendation for improving my skills and how should I understand that I am ready for getting real projects?
Find local small businesses or non profits that need websites and build them for free. Imo you shouldn’t be selling shit yet; that’s like hiring a skydiving instructor that has never pulled a parachute and is semi familiar with how skydiving works.
make a few projects of your own, just copying the one you feel it’s better than you, when you dont feel you are not good enough, then it’s time
You can start with small stuff, but honestly doing Elementor pro off the bat is you are not really learning WordPress. No matter what people say, Elementor is added weight to your site
Start with small, simple freelance projects like basic websites or landing pages. Keep practicing with Elementor and CSS, this get you more expertise in websites. Start with easy gigs on freelancing sites or offer your services at a lower rate to build your portfolio.
