    PHP developers are always on demand. You could understand Wordpress and develop themes. If you are able to create professional themes then you could sell them for great price. I hope you understood what i am telling !

    If you want to earn more money from programming, you could also try getting jobs from freelancer websites like ex. rentacoder current vWorker or getacoder. But remember that since they are job bidding site, you should be really careful not to sell yourself too cheap.

    $2000 a month is a very hard call but not impossible. i think you should get into some company as you are having so much of knowledge.

    Reading this made feel really sick. Is it normal in India that people work so hard? I hope that you find some way to improve your quality to life, because that does not sound like life at all... Amirk had also a good suggestion for you, which you could consider. After writing a few of those quality plugins, maybe it would be possible for you to start your own business.

    As a buyer of services, when I find someone that does good work, I keep giving them work. So, use the freelance sites to develop contacts for ongoing business. You could possibly also partner with a web designer, for example, to expand your services (via themes or website packages as suggested previously).

    I know someone who is a programmer. Sometimes he has clients which pay him $5000/project, of course he didn't start out with these numbers.
    He used to own a php-script webshop. He made scripts, I made the designs and we sold licenses for about $10 - $80 each. Let's say $45 average.

    45 * 45 = $2025 USD!

    Perhaps you should consider working for your own, companies rip you off. PHP projects are well paid, at least, here in The Netherlands PHP programmers earn quite a lot. More than web designers ;)

    If you are good PHP developer it is easy to earn 2k$ per month. In my country beginner in PHP development in mid-sized company earns about 1500-2000$ and companies are always looking for new employees...

    Start by taking your English to the next level. This is a crucial point, since it proofs your professionalism and ability to communicate well.

    If you are going to use the freelancer sites mentioned in this thread, you will have to communicate with your clients by using English. If you can impress them with your both language skills and technical knowledge, it will be much more likely that you are going to establish a solid customer base. Also, since English is a global language, it can be hard to sell your plugins, if the homepages are not written in solid English.
