I want to give you guys three reasons Is it a good idea or a bad idea and let you guys kind of figure that out? But guys before we get started with this I want you guys to check out my free development guide that gives you more insight about PHP and how to get started in your development career and make the money you want links are in the description box go ahead and Sign up for that guys and I'll give you more details on how to get started in seven easy steps So go ahead and do that so number one guys is PHP has been around for a long time and traditionally if a program language been around for a long time It means that it probably out of date got a lot of legacy features and functions that are not relevant to today And yeah in the past that was true, but you got other programs other Platforms or companies like WordPress who really took PHP and modernize it to the way where it's still relevant today 25% online guys traffic goes through a PHP related site 25% that's a huge and Rory presses leading most of that But you also got other websites and content management tools that actually push the PHP to guys that lambda stack is Something else guys is very lean it works It may not be the most powerful stack in the world But it does what it can do fast and what it needs for small mid-sized companies Even some large companies who don't have a ton of traffic going to their WordPress website is Works great for them guys a lot of plug-ins a lot of features a lot of tracking It does everything for you especially for mid-sized companies and guys we have roughly about 17 Million companies out there and probably the bulk of them gonna be small and mid-sized companies so you got that's a lot of WordPress sites out there and Lot of work for you guys as far as just for freelancers or just it won't make a little money on the side There's lots of money out there for that guy. So I Know I know a lot of you developers want to be on the cutting edge You want to be on the latest technology in the latest? Framework release or a lot of latest programming language You feel like you're not there if you're using PHP that's far away from the case guys I personally think the top seven languages gonna be around longer than Things where in the past because you got the big Microsoft oracles who back in these develop these program languages And they're continually building them out because they have infrastructure They have programs applications that are running on these particular softwares So I think they're gonna be long-term around and since oracle kind of in that my php Ram and they know importance My SQL and they know the importance of that relationship between PHP and my SQL I think it's gonna be here for a long time guys So at the end of the day, can you get a job with PHP and the answer to that is yes That's gonna be number two is actually in demand guys PHP is in demand a lot of people want to actually hire PHP developers for Integration with their WordPress site their CRM's and all that stuff like that guys and number three Is the customer relationship? Databases I'm gonna kind of tie all this together, right if you're dealing with a company infrastructure They just talk talk about the web land us lambda stack usually you have Everything online cloud base or maybe on on-prem server, but it's all through a web page you log into that CRM which is WordPress it want to integrate into that customer relationship database which sugar CRM and they able to put in all the Information be able to track it with Google Analytics be able to send emails all these are PHP websites or Application that are functioning on in the cloud that they don't have to manage on-prem guys You don't think that's valuable to those companies to be able to do that That's really gonna put them in a position to do the same faster. They can get people who know the language Yes, it's not the fastest thing in the world But you guys it all depends on results you guys if you watch enough of my videos, you know I'm results driven a lot of companies think that way results driven They can give a blink about the program language long as it does the job and get them results in the time frame They want don't cost that much money and it's easy to implement. That's all they're concerned with do you have? Do your program language or your solution be able to provide that to you guys so what does it mean first of all I think PHP is one of the top language when it comes to Starting off from scratch learning one of the first program language is to learn I think if you're gonna learn program language first either Python or our PHP in my mind I think PHP would give you the direct to job right away Not that Python can't get you those jobs. It's just that I'm pretty sure for a small medium-sized company that are not AI companies that are not machine learning that are not data science companies. I'm pretty sure they're gonna be using PHP in some Level or a platform and PHP actually gets you in the door to learn other advanced languages like C sharp or Java and that's where the big money is for the enterprises guys But still those concepts those the core knowledge that I Push you guys to learn and a lot of other developers are youtubers push you learn is going to you can learn those fundamental to a PHP So is PHP a good idea?
