Who is Arul Prakassam?


Arul Prakassam

Arul Prakassam is a front-end web developer with a strong foundation in back-end technologies and a good content creator.  He was born in March 2002 in Puducherry, India.

From an early age, Arul developed a keen interest in space and science, aspiring to become a space scientist.  With this goal, he aimed to pursue his education at the Indian Institute of Space Science and Technology (IIST).  Although he was unable to secure the required admission score, he chose to pursue a Bachelor of Technology in Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) and enrolled at Manakula Vinayagar Institute of Technology, Puducherry in 2019.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, the disruption to academic life limited in-person learning and gradually led to a decline in his interest in ECE.  However, this period became a turning point when he discovered a growing passion for programming and web development.  He began learning web development independently and started publishing online content through Blogger-based websites.

His early ventures into blogging faced multiple setbacks, with his first two websites failing to gain traction and eventually being discontinued.  These experiences taught him a valuable lesson: consistent effort and continuous improvement ultimately lead to results.  Applying this mindset, he launched his third website, Switch2Knowledge, which marked a significant breakthrough.

Through persistent content creation, Arul successfully ranked articles on Google, gaining practical expertise in SEO and content strategy.  He later joined the Google AdSense program, receiving approval and monetizing his website.  In the initial phase, his primary focus remained on content writing and search engine ranking.

In 2021, he expanded his digital presence by launching the Switch2Knowledge YouTube channel, aiming to grow as a content creator.  While traffic and earnings were modest, this phase reignited his interest in web development.  He resumed learning development skills, eventually identifying front-end development as his core strength.  During this period, he built multiple web projects to enhance his technical expertise.

Alongside his professional growth as a developer, Arul continued to actively manage his website and YouTube channel, steadily improving his skills in front-end development, SEO, and content creation.

After completing his undergraduate studies in 2023, Arul began his professional career at IBM, Bangalore, joining as a Quality Engineer. After one year, he transitioned into the role of Application Developer, where he currently works, leveraging both his technical and problem-solving skills.
