Prior wrote an article entitled called " nest in second-tier cities tough, you want to comeback in the first-tier cities ," which referred to the programmer then outsourcing it, so many small partners on privately asked me:
Brother, I also wish to take outsourcing, but do not know where to go then, tell us some more?
In fact, outsourcing pick the most direct way, that is, an acquaintance introduced. There is no secret, doing business under the sun is only one reason: to start acquaintance to start (the truth, do not hold back laughter).
For then outsourcing it, mixed. That in the end not to take outsource it? We may wish to move a small bench, incidentally, take the packet of seeds to hear how I look at this matter.
01, sideline ways to make money
Sideline ways to make money in addition to access outsourcing, there are many, some easy, some need some skills. I can only say that some of his past, and continue to do, which you can try without any difficulty, the only requirement is to insist.
1) Share rebate
The first turned out to share rebate, is not a little surprised, a little shocked? This way everyone in my circle of friends is estimated to have not been rare, an estimated 90% of people still operated, very universal. I simulate this process.
Pharaoh out a new course called "Java self refers to the North," To this course, Pharaoh was a painstaking ah. With excitement, Wang took this course to share a circle of friends.
Friends saw the horse. To the great friendship between the two men, a horse not only to buy the support, the course also forwarded to the circle of friends, this time beginning on the poster more than six eye-catching characters: "Pharaoh effort to recommend."
Maradona's fans saw a small two, I thought the horse recommended certain courses can not go wrong, so they dig 66 yuan to buy. At the same time, receive micro-letter nag a notice: a small two bought "Java self refers to the North" by your share, you get the bounty 8.8 yuan.
Share rebate this way the operation is very simple, to see the content you share is not good enough to share the program is not enough to attract attention, the audience share is not wide enough. As long as three conditions are satisfied, the commission will not earn less.
2) Write blog
Write a blog can make money? To be honest, not too easy. Today someone said to me, you can send a text ad, budget $ 150. I refused, because this amount of money is too less ™, funny play with me, whatever the outcome, I am also CSDN top 500 bloggers ah.
Most of this year, personal blog is public in nature, relying on advertising into the blogger rare (Lu Songsong's blog to do a good job). But the aggregate class of blog traffic is often very large, such as "rookie tutorial", "push cool", "CSDN" and so on.
3) write the number of public
No public write, can not make money? The answer is sonorous - can! If the number of fans over fifty thousand more than the public, basically every month to ensure that the meal there.
But the public can not put numbers to do more than fifty thousand fans, in addition to the academy, but also know how to "operational." As far as I know, the powder before giving up five thousand of many, many, many times I have almost give up.
Up to now, the "silent king" number has been continuously updated public 11 months, and readers a reward of more than two thousand pieces, the main flow of advertising there are more than 200 pieces. The money although insignificant in amount, but they are mind readers ah, still quite component, in my heart heavy.
4) writing a book
Writing a book, earn more money? Really too small (could not help but sad)!
General technical books, sold 5000, are regarded as a good result, tens of thousands of book are regarded as the best-selling book. The proportion of royalties is generally 8% (volume pricing book * * This ratio = number of direct benefits). Press said that my " Web advanced full-stack development road the number of copies" sold quite satisfactory (give yourself a praise to encourage it).
5) Posts
For now, contributions accounted for a large part of my income sideline them (there is a monthly 2 ~ 5k).
"Virgin vote" for the public life is CSDN program number, one hundred thousand words each, entitled " the end of programmers all living creatures ." This gives my writing has injected a shot in the arm, original writing can really make money ah - at the time such an idea.
Over time, more and more I share the original, opportunity comes more and more, I grasped a: (the "Java technology geeks" No public pure smile created) in a row Submission of six high-quality original articles, compliance after I became a partner of this public number. After the number of public cash, there is a part of the proceeds that I mentioned above.
According to her friends feedback, sideline ways to make money in addition to those I mentioned above, as well as know almost Live, Wukong Q & A, Corporate Training, GitChat pay and so on, but I have not tried it, so skip this.
02, the first to do outsourcing
Whether blog, write public number, write books, contributor, or share rebate, these sideline ways to make money, you need to accumulate a long period of time. Because writing skills, readership base, no way overnight.
In comparison, outsourcing is more universal, lower input costs, easier access to benefits in the short term. So long as the programming (how does the programmer), it has all the conditions for access of outsourcing.
I was in July 2016, when life first took them outsourced. Prior to this, I have been outsourcing prejudice, holding a "killed I do not take outsourcing" attitude that only programmers will encounter a problem at work knows better than to pick outsourcing .
Well, then, my work has encountered a bottleneck. The company's profit project delay, hopeless salary increase, promotion hopeless.
This time just before a leader in Suzhou, called to ask me if I had the intention to take outsourcing. I hesitated for a week, bite the bullet and pick up. JEPF project is done (before no contact), I spent two weeks out of three or four pages, party leaders said the results of the exchange program, JEPF do not want to do! As hard costs this week, the leaders said the opportunity to ask me to dinner (leadership in Suzhou, Luoyang I).
Although I was complaining, but that is the previous leader, did not say anything. After a few days, the leadership came to me, saying that there is a new project: to make an e-commerce site. I have not learned the lessons eat a cutting wisdom, and did not want to deposit, no contract, buried dry. I think before leading me well, I should not lead to pit again.
Do before and after four months of time, leading me settlement 7,200 yuan. Now look, I was betrayed cheap labor, ah, the leadership in the middle of the water can earn a lot.
But at the time, I thought it acceptable (under the self-comforting). For this project, I learned a lot of new technology: JeeSite, ECharts, Maven, file HTTP, Spring Security, and so on. Although, back and forth to do for four months, but the specific time to spend per day, not too much, about three hours now.
The first to do outsourcing, the overall feeling okay: no-show, the demand for change is particularly large, the situation did not balance due to not appear. Like first love, though bitter point, but also a lot of harvest.
03, dungeons outsourcing
For four years, I do a lot of outsourcing, some Party is very honest, very pleasant chatting, cooperation is also very peace of mind. But some Party really want to hammer burst his head.
1) Party did not demand documents
2) No matter how much money the party wanted to build an aircraft carrier.
3) delay the final payment of the Party.
04, in the end not to take outsourcing
Liang Ning An essay called "money and valuable thing to do," there is, indeed, very philosophical.
Money thing, the core interests of the moment, cash spot, the pursuit of profit.
Valuable things, structural core values, honor time, sometime in the future.
Outsourcing thing that counted money or valuable thing?
I have a friend star, he is now a monthly income of 250,000, began to make outsourcing a decade ago, we have now made the scale. So outsourcing for him, not just something to make money, or valuable thing. He told me that he now received either project can be replicated (reducing overall development costs), or long-term maintenance is required (maintenance cost is very low, but the cost is considerable).
For me, part of the outsourcing business to make money, a substantial amount of income can be increased without affecting the life and work uninterrupted writing.
If you like the original, like me, work encountered a bottleneck, time is very adequate, and no other things to do, you can take the outsourcing. Outsourcing is like a good open source project can make money, temper not only technical, but also have an income, in addition to "double benefit" this idiom, I can not think of anything else.
For star and my case, we naturally have to take the outsourcing. Because outsourcing to us, on the whole is positive feedback. But not all programmers are suitable for pick outsourcing !
If you have a very bright prospects for the development of work before, you should put heart and soul into work, because the work is not only a matter of money or valuable thing. Because the moment you have to work a steady income, future work can also give you more in return. That is certainly not to take outsourcing ah, because outsourcing there are many uncertain factors, like those party do not fly I mentioned above. You put energy into outsourcing above, from a long-term perspective, it is uneconomical.
Recently, I put most of the energy into writing the above, then outsourcing is no longer my first choice among the sideline. Why should I do it?
Because in the long perspective, writing in relation to outsourcing, not only is a profitable thing, it is a valuable thing .
The day before yesterday in the circle of friends bask a map to mark the CSDN ranked 499, so there is a friend commented that the sentence: "Such a high number of visits, access to project much easier." To prove I'm not boasting, screenshots to prove look innocent.
Really, last month Luoyang outsourcing is a fellow I found in CSDN above.
05, finally
In my opinion, then outsourcing is not right or wrong, there is no distinction or distinction. Most programmers then outsourcing because of the life force, as far as I know, some of the big brother Ali also pick outsourcing.
But I hope you can think about outsourcing before then, what you are for.
