Why not put some of that tech-savviness to use and become a web developer?

The AA Picks team is on the prowl for things we think our readers will value. If we make an affiliate partnership to reduce the costs of purchases, then we may see a share of revenue.

Yeah, sure, helping Grandma de-malware her computer is a perfectly functional humanitarian project, but wouldn't you rather be putting your skill to use to actually make some cash? The modern world runs on web development, and many experts agree that the current market is trending more and more toward freelance as opposed to the traditional 9-5.

Put 2 and 2 together and what do you get? Freelance web devs are on the rise.

However, it seems the only problem standing between you and never putting on pants or a tie again is simple: you don't know the first damn thing about being a web developer.

That's where Rob Percival comes in.

We first encountered Rob when we gave his Android app design course a spin and found him to be a delightful and informative instructor. We later actually interviewed him to find out more about how he became an online programming instructor and professional "code geek," and so far, our readers seem to have taken a liking to him.

Rob is the founder of Eco Web Hosting, a service that offers environmentally friendly website hosting options for conscientious site owners. He's also the guy who runs Code School, an annual summer program based out of Cambridge that teaches aspiring young students how to become masters of the digital world.

Rob holds a degree in Mathematics from Cambridge University, which might lead one to believe that he might be a difficult person to communicate with. Quite the opposite, as we found out during our own interview with him via Gary Sims last month. Rather, he's a passionate and articulate individual who is committed to helping students achieve their goals.

As a passionate advocate of the kind of freedom that being a web developer offers, Rob has started a class that teaches students all of the basics of web design using HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, Python, MySQL, and more. The course spans over 291 lectures articulated over 30.5 hours of video and currently holds a 4.7 star rating out of over 8,000 ratings on Udemy.

During the process of this course, which currently hosts over 40,000 students, you'll learn how to build your own attractive and efficient websites by building 25 increasingly complex sites of your very own. It's all the schooling you'll need to kickstart your potential career as a web developer, if you're interested.

Normally this course goes for $200, which is fairly understandable considering the breadth and of information covered, but from now until the 15th of November, Rob is offering the entire package to new students for just $19. That's an astounding price, considering this course is capable of walking beginning users with no previous knowledge of coding up to an employable level of skill over the span of approximately a week's worth of training (considering you're self disciplined).

What's more, Rob is even offering to give you your money back if you're not finding the course as valuable as you had hoped within 30 days. If you're someone who has been interested in making a career out of the internet, this is essentially a riskless investment.

So what do you think? Ready to stop being everyone's go-to IT grunt and actually turn your skills into cash? Click the link below to dive into Rob Percival's web development course!
