Being a web designer is a good thing: the industry is growing, and the income is pretty good.
E-Commerce
Numerous online businesses have, understandably, risen, seeing as how they don't need expensive inventory, overhead, and sometimes the product itself.
When the customer places an order online, the retailer buys it from a good-relationed wholesaler. The wholesaler then ships the product so that the retailer makes a margin off the profit without exerting too much effort.
Even big box retailers, like Wal-Mart and Target, have certain items on their web site that are available online only and can't be purchased offline. Web designers are needed to create, maintain and optimize the website to enhance consumer's retail shopping experience.
Web Design Salary Increases
Salary levels depend on experience, education, and location. Also, most companies prefer to keep web designers nearby instead of having them work in a remote location.
