Well usually you have to know PHP first, but go to craigslist.org, find your city and look for web jobs. some will actually pay to train and learn php.

good luck.

I think you can create your website and show your competence
or go to site like getafreelancers, rentacoder … to find job

Put emphasis on your ability to learn. Also mention that once you’ve learned 2 or 3 different server-side languages, they really are all the same, just different syntax, and differently named functions.

Good question ! I asked the same before …
Check this:
free to register and can start bidding in project, you can find no only php job, but also in any other language.

First, I’d suggest study PHP using multiple tutorials. If you don’t like to read tutorials, here is a great site where you can watch PHP video tutorials!

After you think your confident, go around and practice your coding on sites that want help with their PHP. Start small and preferably free.

One place that has alot of need for PHP programmers is Virtual Pet Sites.
Two sites that have people looking (for help with Pet Sites) is virtualpetlist.com and virtualpetcommunity.com

After you’ve done some practice with them and your 100% confident, they try to earn some money, by looking on job sites.
