My first steps into the programming industry

2006: First Computer

As I wrote in the "About Me" post, our house met the computer first time in 2006 in Ardahan, -where my family was born-. I remember that day, I didn't know what I going to do. One of my friends installed a lot of games on my computer then the connection between the computer and me has been started. After several months I already started copying CDs and sell to people. BTW we still hadn't internet.

2007 - 2008: Introduction to HTML

Next year we were moved back to Istanbul, and I started mid-school and we got the Internet. I was lucky because we had Computer class, and our teacher gave me print which contain 5-6 pages of HTML code. A few days later, -after a lot of trying- I asked the teacher "How can I publish the websites to Google?"

2009: CMS World

I was collecting the computer magazines, and one of the issues had an amazing booklet. Joomla & WordPress.

I read every word of that booklet and studied. Then no surprise, I learnt a lot of things about WordPress. How to install it? How to configure the template? How to install the plugin? Also, I published a lot of posts about it. But the most important part is I started freelancing. To be honest I was a cheap worker. But I earned money and it gave me extra motivation.

Also, I started to high-school and was known as a computer guy. I continued my freelance career with the school website. "kocasinanlisesi.net"

Besides these stories, I was improving myself on SEO and Adsense and built websites for Adsense incomes. (zevkliblog.com)

2013: Computer Engineering

Again without any surprise, I started a bachelor's in Computer Engineering. To be honest, I was poor in my classes and my main interest was always in building a team, doing something, and earning money.

2015: Finally! First real job!

I struggled with a lot of classes but finally, I got started on my career as a professional in May 2015 when I was studying.

(One day, when I walking home. I saw my computer teacher who gave me HTML prints. We talked and he told me that I can reach him whether I want to make an internship.

I was also working daily jobs sometimes like welcoming customers at the event gate with a suit and I thought teacher's words. So I texted him and made one interview with the company then my career started.)
