So how much do web designers get paid?
With work experience, a degree and some example work the average grad wage is between 15-20k these days. (thats now, in a couple of years its likely to change obviously).
I'd advise getting a degree. I wouldn't normally give someone an interview who was that age and didn't have one (but thats a personal thing). And then lots of good example work shows you're keen.
But you've got to think... In a couple of years time who won't have a webpage already. Not everyone is going to be wanting a new website every week. It's the same in the US. All these companies making PC's - they're all going pear-shaped because people aren't changing their PC every month. It had to happen eventually. The market will becoming saturated.
If you were asking me for career advice for I'd think more long-term and think about providing longer term web solutions, rather than just designing them...
What does everyone else think?
