Many webmasters do have the knowledge and experience in developing websites, installing scripts, etc. There are, however, a large number of webmasters who do not have the time or experience in installing different scripts on their servers. This has established a potential market for generating additional income.

From experience, the majority of webmasters requiring script installation services need assistance in installing PHP related scripts. Often webmasters wrongly upload files, do not configure permissions correctly, etc. and these scripts are left not functioning. These webmasters generally resort to fellow webmasters for assistance.

If you have knowledge and experience in PHP and MySQL you may experience that script installation services could be a generous source of part-time income.

Advertising your services

The fastest way in which to get you settled in this area of service delivery is by joining one or more freelancing websites. These websites often have sections dedicated to script installation services. By simply joining these websites, you can start bidding on projects posted and aim to get chosen as the winning bidder.

If you do decide to go the freelancing route, it is highly recommended that you lower your prices initially so that you can become competitive and get work. Freelancers are always rated after they conducted work for a buyer. Once you start increasing your positive feedbacks, you can start increasing your fees or bids.
