Computer Science Oriented Self-Employment Careers:

If you don’t want to do the job and you have computer science skills, you can launch a computer science-oriented business with little start-up capital. Below are the some fields in which you may start your business.

Mobile Apps Business

Computer science specialists with strong programming skills can develop and market mobile apps with little start-up cost. If you successfully market your apps to a mobile vendor, it will distribute your products through their app stores and return a percentage of each sale, so you can concentrate on development instead of sales.

Consider apps that solve common problems in daily life, support technical issues or address special interests. Even something as simple as a list of 101 ways to say “I Love You” has more than 100,000 downloads.

Web Based Business

As web hosting fees become less expensive, anyone with some web development skills can easily start a web-based business. Whether selling products or services, forming a community of like-minded people or providing specialized information, a web developer can easily build a site in a few weeks and upload it to a hosting service.



As with any business start-up, spend some time developing a business plan that considers how to market the site, researching the competition and determining how to win enough customers to earn a living.

Business of Supporting New Technologies

The pace of technology never slows down, and many companies need experts to train and support these new technologies. As a computer science expert, you can market services that assist companies in adopting new technologies.

Businesses need professionals who can train developers and managers in new trends and products. Those who get in on the ground floor of a company that has adopted new technologies can often command high consulting fees.
