sell stuff as a developer ?
In my experience, you don't make money by selling support unless you are
a large company selling support for a large project or a wide array of
projects. The people that will use your library will mostly be
developers and not end-users, after all.
To make money from things you develop, I think you need to take your
library and either build an application that has wide appeal and sell
that, or sell yourself as a custom developer that can build the
application the customer needs, using the tools you are comfortable
with. You can then build in the cost of developing your library that you
will reuse for the custom applications.
And where do you find customers, most people i talk too fall a sleep
let alone understand when i say the word xhtml ?
What does it do exactly.
Forum, shop, appointments, invoice, EAN13 barcode or just simple sql
statements web based. Code is very straight forward. Applications
included are just examples of what mod_python basically can do for you.- Hide quoted text -

People do put python stuff up for bid at rentacoder. What I am seeing
is general stuff, I would say as part of my web presentation That I do
custom work or whatever, part of it is to be that person and then do
it... You might try google I have an add on the side of my screen
that says freelance web designers part-time or Full-time Earn up to
$40 an hour..
When I was looking at your page I couldn't tell what it was, I see
that as a problem from a promotional standpoint (I do google adds so I
am big on self promotion)... I would add to that you are available
for custom work... maybe do some stuff with paypal or some payment
system. You may want a wider focus, and screen shots of stuff you
have done
