Career in php

It is a common rumour that php cannot be used for creating big websites(projects). Initially big projects were only created in jsp(javascriplet) and asp.net. However, today websites like  www.facebook.com (created using php)  and www.yahoo.com (created using php) has proved that very huge projects can be created in php. It is  simply the way you think. Most of the php programmers  donot follow  programming  standards and security mesaures and move an easy way to complete the projects. However in due course of time, those projects are bound to be unsuccessful.

    

Starting with web development career in php  is easy than other technologies as php being an open source is used extensively in all software companies today.So , the number of jobs in php is far more than in any other web development technologies. However, if you dream of working in mnc like yahoo and microsoft, you need to ve very much technicially proficient in php programmings and other php supporting standards like  java do and you need to have 3+ years of experience to enter into any good mnc in the field of php.
