This is the great thing about being in graphic design and web development. There are lots of opportunities you can use to make a decent buck – without having a solid client base:

Buy and Sell Wordpress Themes

Are you a web designer? Do you work with Wordpress? If not, you should look into it. Beeex.net runs on the Wordpress platform, as do millions of other blogs and even corporate websites. But you know this already if you’re a web designer. So here comes ThemeForest.

ThemeForest is an online marketplace for Wordpress themes and website templates. You can buy and sell themes not only for Wordpress, but also HTML/CSS templates, Joomla templates, and Drupal themes. On the buyer side, prices start at $10 for an already decent theme. This is a great price considering you get a full website template for it.

On the seller side, you can place your templates on the ThemeForest marketplace and earn money off of them. ThemeForest takes a percentage of the price the buyers pay – there are no other fees or initial costs. Take a look if you’re a web designer and you have one or two (or more) extra templates lying around!

Make Money with your Blog

Do you have a blog? If so, check out Netklix. They have advertisers in many niches that are willing to pay you money if you place their ad on your site – and you don’t have to worry about getting them to advertise on your blog, putting ads up, or billing your advertisers; Netklix does all of this for you.

Simply sign up as a publisher (use this link, then go to “Publisher”) to create an account. After you signed up (free), created an ad space and verified your account ($5 fee), you can start earning money right away.

Now this is not the case for the links to the Photoshop tutorials (or any other resources), just the anchor links within the page. And that is now fixed!

We edited the post and took out the anchor links. If they had worked, they would have taken you to the corresponding part in the post. We thought we’d offer a form of easy navigation because it’s such a long list… Oh well.

We are sorry if you encountered any difficulties and ended up on a 404 page. If you see something wrong on our site, please do tell us by either leaving a comment or just send us a quick message, we’d appreciate it!

Here are the results:

Photoshop Tutorials, Illustrator Tutorials, or WordPress Plugins?

1. Photoshop Tutorials & Freebies (150 votes), 38%
2. WordPress Plugins, Themes & Goodies (107 votes), 28%
3. Illustrator Tutorials & Freebies (92 votes), 24%
4. Web Development / HTML, CSS, PHP Tutorials & Tips (35 votes), 9%, and finally
5. InDesign Tutorials & Tips (4 votes), 1%

And the winner is…

And… we have a winner! With 38 percent in total, Adobe Photoshop wins before its sister design applications Illustrator and InDesign. The latter only got 4 votes, as you see. This affirms our perception that InDesign, as a professional layout and publishing tool, doesn’t have as many followers in as both Photoshop and Illustrator do. That may be because, just like QuarkXpress, Adobe InDesign isn’t a tool for creating illustrations, but for merging and finishing them to a publication.

WordPress as our favorite blog platform takes a respectable 2nd place! Yes, we know, we all love WordPress to death. As a result of this poll, in the future, we will expand our WordPress section for bloggers. Just like with Photoshop tutorials, we will post the web’s best links to WordPress themes, plugins and scripts.

Adobe Illustrator tutorials and tips takes the third rank. We will continue posting quality content about this application as well!

Web development in general got 9 percent. Here, we will also continue delivering the hottest resources – strictly free, of course – for your convenience.

What counts is that we will keep up our work of listing the best tutorials, tips and freebies on the internet for you. We will take the results of this poll and post only quality work that have the capability of improving your design and development skills.

After all, that’s what Beeex.net is about: A collection of strictly free quality resources for designers and web developers. Thanks again to all who participated in this poll!
