Which best course for Website development, design or WordPress development in order to get me better freelancer job?

I am a freelancer (mostly admin. support work). I worked very hard but still not happy due to unreasonable paying and overload hours. I try to learn for website development and design, including WordPress CMS as I want to improve more skills and more experience for website development. I am glad that I found Treehouse website instead four-years college.

I reviewed the projects detail for WordPress developer, themes development or WordPress website design in online marketplace website. Some clients around the world are looking for WordPress developer expert need to migrate the content of their old WordPress website or other CMS website (like Joomla, Drupal etc.) to a brand new themes WordPress website, or some other client who are looking for WordPress development etc. Where can I learn regarding migrating contents to other site or anything else customer’s requirements?

I am wondering how can I provide good proposal details and what sample portfolios looks like.

I know long questions but your answer would be very helpful. :)

Hi Farhana,

It generally depends on your already existing knowledge. I would suggest working your way through the "Web Design" track here on Treehouse, continued by the "Learn WordPress" track and finally "WordPress Development".

That way you should learn the basics to start working in this industry. Ultimately it really depends on your already existing knowledge and what you want to do.
