If you are a freelancer, you will probably also need marketing skills.

Front-end: -html -> page structure -css -> style -javascript -> behaviour Back-end: -php -python -sql -> database I would personally suggest to go for Front-end first Then there are other technologies that you can use like Node, React or Angular

The only skill they want is that you should be able to complete what they want before the deadline. And as far as technical skill goes, that I think Elz _ covered

You should be good in HTML and CSS and JavaScript. You should also know about graphics designing. Furthermore, if you want to make your website more dynamic and functional, learn PHP and SQL. If you learn all of this, you will be a very good web developer. A good Idea is to finish the SoloLearn HTML and JS course. Then you can work your way up

It depends on whether you want to be Front-end or Back-end, both are for the web. The front end is the visible part, what the user sees and what interacts. The Back-end is the part that is not seen on the page, for example when a site asks for your data, they ask for it with a form made in the front-end with html, javascript, css and sometimes some javascript frameworks , but that information is sent to the server through the backend, which processes and stores what you requested in databases. If you are interested in the front-end I recommend you start with HTML, then CSS, Javascript and some frameworks, if you are interested in the back-end, learn python and DJango to start Depende de si quieres ser Front-end o Back-end, ambas son para la web. El front-end es la parte visible, lo que el usuario ve y con lo que interactúa. El Back-end es la parte que no se ve en la página, por ejemplo cuando un sitio de pide tus datos, te los piden con un formulario hecho en el front-end con html, javascript, css y en ocaciones algunos frameworks de javascript, pero esa información es enviada al servidor mediante el back-end, que procesa y almacena en bases de datos lo que solicitaste. Si te interesa el front-end te recomiendo empezar por HTML, luego CSS, Javascript y algunos frameworks, si te interesa el back-end, aprende python y DJango para empezar
