Guys, this is not my best work. It is only the last work. I agree it is pretty simple, but simple doesn't mean easy.

I work as a webmaster, web designer and internet marketer since 2007 from my home office.

I know marketing. I know usability and the difference between text and images. I know SEO.

All my websites that have images as text are using the "image replacement" method. If you see the source code you will understand.

I have some very popular Brazilian websites.

One thing I learned: less is more.

The content is king, but you need to have an UNIQUE design, otherwise you are just one more between millions.

The best blogs, in my opinion, are elegant and simple:

www.smashingmagazine.com
www.incomediary.com

I have a fair price for every kind of work I do.
If someone liked my work and want my services, have to pay what I'm charging or go away.

I am the person that put the price in my work, not the others.

Don't let your possible client set your own price. You know your value.

The world is big. Someone will like our work and will agree with our fees. They will be happy because we just helped them.

@harvey - You think just like me!

We need to learn more in order to survive. All job offers, even full time offers are asking for a set of skills that includes design, programming, coding, marketing, etc. They want one people to do everything.

It is funny, but I never saw a job offer for doctors saying that they need to be a dentist too.

This happens only on the internet. The fool people think that an "internet guy" must understand everything about the internet, from IT to networks, from design to code.

What I think:

CHARGE MORE OR GET OUT OF THE ONLINE WORLD.
DON'T FUCK WITH THE SCENARIO EVEN MORE.

BY THE WAY, BURGUER KING IS HIRING :-)
