Hello!
I'm new here. I've been browsing tons of forums for an idea of what to do. I was laid off from my job about 3 month ago. I've been looking for a job since then, but did not even get a single interview. I worked as a web designer for a publishing company for the last 5 years. Looks like www.affiliateprograms.co.nz is an active forum with active members and may be someone has some experience working as a freelance web designer. May be this category is not the most appropriate for this question, but I want to try anyways to get some opinions before I go ahead with my life. I'm wondering if it is possible in the current economy to find work for a freelance web designer and make enough to pay for rent and groceries. I was able to find a small project on craigslist and I developed a website for a company. It was a small project and took me only a week to complete. I got paid $800 for 1 week of work which is not bad. Please people give me some ideas. I have 2 kids and my wife is out of work as well. Thank you in advance. _________________ Website I developed for Online Payday Loans Company |

hi there, hey i totally know what your going through - we hit rock bottom also, and its awful when you have kids relying on you. I couldn't even look at mine without falling to bits. But hey hard times are done with, lets look at what we CAN do.
I'm in the market for web designers - and need 6-7 global sites set up. I have an awesome designer now, however will require more in around a months time. Maybe you could email me some of the sites you have created?

Hey my friend,
Hang in there I know what its like, Im a freelance graphic designer myself, its not easy but a skill set like ours is needed online, check out my website because it will give you an idea of how we can automate our business using video.
best of luck with the outsourcing if you flick me an email with your portfolio that would be good, Ive got some extra work I could flick your way.
regards

Oh that's so terrible. I often get people asking me to design them websites and if I get too much work I will seek your assistance ok, and that goes for anyone else who wants web work when I have too much to do. I am sure we can work out something that works out for us in a WIN/WIN situation.
Email me your details and send me links to sites you have already done please so I can check out your skills.
Bye for now |
