Programming tips that can save you time

As a programmer, you will want to find as many ways to save time as possible as time is money. When programming, you will often discover that you use some of the same bits of code again and again. It is worth creating an inventory of all the code (a code bank) which you can refer to when working on websites. This will allow you to copy and paste blocks of code on to the page that has been tried and tested saving time.

If you have created a contact form or scrolling image carousal for a client then you may be able to use it again in the future on other projects. Be sure to keep a record of how you did it. The first time you create something new you may not be able to make much money when selling it on to your client but the more times you can resell it the more money you will make back.

Another way in which you can save time is by creating template websites that you can sell for a fixed price. Once you have created the first template you can quickly sell it to other clients that are looking for a new website. Often these templates will allow for unique content, images, logos and forms to be added to each site to make it unique.
