2. Join Coding Competitions

Coding contests are a great way to get paid good money with your coding skills. Most contests offer substantial cash prizes to the winners.

Some of the most popular coding contests include Topcoder, CodeChef, HTML5Contest, and CallingAllInnovators…but there are definitely more out there.

There are 3 competition areas:

Once you’ve developed your app, you can sell it on Flippa for cash through an auction process or a classified listing.
