and i mean by that if i had a company in India what would a professional web designer earn monthly?
it depends on which company you are working for and what exp you have. For a fresher its between 2-4 laks.
For 2-5 years its between 4-8 lakhs. And more then 5 you might get 8+ lakh.
Hope this helps

Could someone tell me the average start up salary of a web designer with 3-4 years experience, in Manama, Bahrain ? This position is with a marketing / advertising company. I am a Asian (Sri Lanka). Also, state about the accommodation expenses and monthly costs for meals in Bahrain. Normally do Bahraini companies offer accommodation separately or do they include an allowance in the salary ?
Try to look at the salary survey available online

-More in here because this is what I plan for integrating into my website…
As I have no experience in asp.net, I can not relate. This is what I would look for, and what is commonly used. Research functions and abilities of these languages to see what you want.
What should I do to start this career?
I;m 17 and about to finish high school in a few months, what should I do to become a web designer?
What can I do now?
What should I do after high school?
I would suggest going to college. While it’s not necessary, it will definitely teach you a lot that you don’t know. Plus most employers won’t even look at your portfolio if you have no degree on your resume’.
But right now I suggest learning as much as you can. Visit design sites, blogs, read books, build sites, learn code, stay on top of all the latest trends in web design and coding.
Find freelance jobs, this way you can get practice dealing with real clients and real jobs.
Hi Folks
Where can i find good web designer/developer/company that can give assurance the that once the keyword is keyed. The website will guranteed be in the top search list.
I heard it is call SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION.
no one can guarantee top search list results and it would cost you a fortune if it was possible and they always change the algorhythms anyway – you won’t stay on top for long without continued expensive payments to the search engine
What are the major things that a web designer should know/have a good understanding of (for example programming languages or Photoshop)? Should I get started on my portfolio now? I am a sophomore in high school (10th grade). And what electives should I be taking?
Also, how is the pay for a web designer (both free lance and one assigned to a company)
The first thing to consider is that you will be competing with cheap labor from India and other foreign countries. If you really want to get into web programming/design, you will need to know most of the following: HTML, DHTML, XHTHM, XML, XSLT, ASP.NET, VB.NET, C#, Java, JavaScript, Graphics Design (Photoshop, etc…), Web Services, SOAP, AJAX, OOP (Object Oriented Programming), and SQL (TRANSACT and PL/SQL). I would start with HTML and XML, then go from there. The two leading technologies appear to be .NET and Java but the two are generally mutually exclusive.
A web designer able to work for giants such as microsoft, yahoo or google. And if you could give details on the job of the web designer…. what does it consist of?…what the web designer should do or know?
In as much details as possible.
Choice is up to you totally. There are many technical things following a specific web designing course. If you see in accordance with today’s technology go for the following sequence:
1. HTML & CSS //for designing
2. php
3. ASP.NET
4. Javascript
5. AJAX
6. Flash
If you have good strength in any two of these technologies you’re considered a good web designer 
… stay awesome!

If you’re an experienced web designer how long would it take you to make a website if the customer already had the css and index.html but just needed 3-5 more linking pages, one of which would be a contact us form?
About an hour or two depending on the quality ofthe template
