I googled translated it and it said well done today, but my frd told me there is more to it..
this means pretty much like what you said. "Well done today as well"

Here is a scenario.

You're helping a lady with a favor. Since it's 오늘도, it means "again today". So it's like you've been helping her for few days. Then at the end of the day, she says 오늘도 수고했어요. This can mean several things, but all mean the same purpose.

- Thank you so much for helping me today again.
- You have done very well for the day again.
- I appreciate your help today again.

Also to mention. It ends with 요, which is more polite than just 수고했어. 수고했어 is more suitable to close friend and younger crowd. Never say that to elders.

Hope this helps.
