Another aspect that remains undiscussed in this context the income capacity of a freelance web developer which varies from 14K- 1 lac INR per month depending on the skills and project value. Looks like scopes of employment are immense but the beginner level requires a lot of brushing skills and ultimately after 6-7 years when a professional has honed the skills he might be recipient to a handsome salary with other facilities.
