Come on, I can't be the only one around here?
I'm not a webmaster, but I am a developer. Have been since the day I got my BS. But I've avoided the front-end, and all my experience is with the middle tier and back-end. I'm a Microsoft guy basically.
I'm almost exclusively a C# programmer nowadays. I've been at this for a long time, having started with Fortran and run the gamut through C, but it seems there's a great demand for C#, so that's where I've settled.What language do you use the most?

I imagine you're all over the board with HTML, CSS, Ajax, JavaScript and a bunch of other stuff that I've only had brief exposure to?
Yeah, I heard PHP 7 was a huge improvement, which is awesome. I may not like it, but I can't ignore how important it is as a language for webdevelopment. Even with Node becoming as popular as it is, I still think PHP is the most sought after language for a webdev. I could be wrong on this though.You are correct it does move fast. PHP has got a lot better with the release of PHP 7. It is still a frustrating language though.

Developer and Webmaster here. Mostly asp.net in C# and VB.
Most forum software is PHP-based from my understanding, including phpbb and Invision Power Board, though I’m not sure what language Discourse is made out of. That could be a JavaScript construction. Wordpress is also PHP-based, so the Wordpress-based forums out there are PHP as well.This site is behind a Centos 7.3 / Nginx 1.11.10 / PHP 7.1.2 and MariaDB 10.1.21 and it runs very well.
I have a college certificate in web development and an associates’ degree in web design. HTML, CSS, PHP, basic JavaScript, Java for web development (get your WAR files), SQL, Dreamweaver, Photoshop, and Wordpress. I concentrated on publishing for awhile, so I also picked up some InDesign and email development too (ouch).
I also read books on XML and AJAX. Not that is useful now. Recently I’ve been trying projects in Node.js. The whole JavaScript framework stuff and NPM is frankly beyond me still. I took Data Structures but Graph databases are still beyond me.
After all my web design research and education, I concluded that I like talking and writing about web design more than actually doing it. When I do something, I much prefer front end work - I like art making much more than math. I also like working with people and talking through a project’s process. When clients or teammates don’t talk to me, it gets miserable to code alone.

You'll want to focus on social media for the affiliate products you want to sell in order to drive traffic to your site(s). I had fun with affiliate marketing a few years back, but make sure that you scrutinize the potential affiliate's rules as well as the social media TOS. You don't want to misrepresent an affliate's product. A good way to avoid trouble and get more customers is to start a blog in which you provide expert content about whatever knowledge area your products are in. Or a video series, if you're more of a camera person.I want to focus on developing my own websites and make money with ads and affiliate programs. You can make a lot of money doing that without the stress of dealing with clients.
I'm also into digital art, I'd like to spend more time on that as well.

My experiment was selling internet marketing books to businesses, so I started a blog about internet marketing and hyped the posts on Twitter. It was really fun to play with.
You can also sell digital art online. Starting a blog about digital art techniques in order to sell your work and taking commissions can get you some cash. You can probably find some digital art affiliates too. I'd check tablet makers like Wacom and XP-Pen, as well as affiliates for digital art software. Think Clip Studio Paint, Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, that kind of thing. You could advertise commissions for other artists as well.
