My Attempts to Sell Websites and Enhance Skills
My Attempts to Sell Websites and Enhance Skills
Learning and Starting Out:
After learning web development, I began searching for ways to sell and buy my website codes. Initially, I created my own website and listed some items for sale. However, I soon realized that no one would buy from my site due to a lack of credibility.
Discovering ThemeForest:
I searched for marketplaces and eventually found ThemeForest in 2020. I sent my first website for their review to see if it could be sold on their platform. Unfortunately, my website did not meet any design standards and was rejected. At that time, I didn't realize the issue was with the design, and I mistakenly thought that adding new technologies to the website would get it accepted.
Learning New Technologies:
I began learning WEBGL, specifically the Three.js library, which is not very popular but is a beautiful technology for websites. It allows manipulation in three dimensions and the addition of 3D particles.Additionally, I learned AJAX ( barba.js ) techniques to enhance my web development skills.
Creating and Submitting New Projects:
After a month of intense learning, I created a 3D car website for practice and a 3D galaxy website, which can be found on the "Works" page. I submitted these projects, but they were also rejected for poor design. Each time a project was rejected, I learned new things and tried again.
Persistent Efforts and Learning Design:
From 2020 to 2023, I continued submitting websites and learning new things. In 2022, I started learning design to improve my submissions. Despite my efforts, none of my projects were accepted. The main issue was that my designs were not innovative. ThemeForest requires each seller to find their own design style and stick to it, which was challenging for me due to my lack of design experience. My confidence was in my coding skills.
Turning to Fiverr:
I decided to gain more experience and improve my design skills by working on Fiverr. This is where my story of working on Fiverr begins.
