Where to promote programming services?

13 years ago

What bout offering basic programming & problem solving on fiverr. Followed by some extras I am not say it will make you rich but its a place where you can make a lot of contacts and build up a client database who you can proactively contact for more work.

Thanks

Really? I have to disagree. :rolleyes:
...but warriors are little savvier on this topic, than some other potential clients, so they (we) demand higher quality service.
...or a lot cheaper.

It all depends on your skills.

You could start with some text and a link to your site in your signature; that's allowed here.

Your Code Mongoose site seems nice enough, but there's nothing about "you" (personally) there.

It all depends on your skills and ambitions.

Some webmaster boards are allowing advertisement from new people, but you should be ready for "test tasks". It is a chance to get positive feedback or review from reputable member for that kind of tasks.

You can play around freelancer, sometimes you could be pretty lucky there.

But first of all think about informative profiles at about.me and linkedin.

Code Mongoose is not my site. It was a place i was working for a while back but decided to leave it and venture into my own business.

OK, so start by putting up a website. Potential clients want to see who you are, your personality. Why should they hire you and not someone else?

If you started your own business, you should establish a company. Then you can advertise the services of your company in a professional manner, and hire help if/when you need it to complete contracted jobs.

While I completely agree for the long-term, when someone is first starting out on one's own, there's nothing wrong with conserving resources (i.e., saving money) and presenting oneself as an individual.

You can list your services here,
http://www.warriorforum.com/warriors-hire/

However, offer something specific that warriors are looking for, e.g. WP Plugin development, WP Bug Fixes, Dynamic Sales page development, etc. etc. stuff that IMers will be interested in.

Fiverr? It might sound silly but I have seen people selling programming services at Fiverr. It's a huge marketplace there.

Hey Ben Nash,

I would agree with the folks in here with the idea that you would first need your website up.

Make it simple, modern, readable and most of all responsive. Use twitter bootstrap framework or Foundation 5 framework to accomplish that goal more easily.

Be clear and specific about your services and about your audience that you are trying to target.

All the best!

Thanks
