I started freelancing over ten years ago right after the 2008 global recession. I worked with a variety of online platforms and I enjoyed the freedom and flexibility it provided. I still do
freelance writing today and in this post, I’ll discuss how you can stand out as a new freelancer.
Get That Website Up And Running One of the best investments to make as a freelancer is to set up your own business website. The website should include a current portfolio of your best work
samples for potential clients to see. On your “About Me” page, you need to go into as many details as possible about who you are and the types of services you offer. Discuss how many clients
you currently work with, and include a few client testimonials on this page. Include your contact information and links to your social media pages.
Use Paid Ads When you first become a freelancer, you’ll benefit from using paid ads to draw traffic to your new business. Pinterest, Instagram, and Facebook all offer affordable rates for
you and you can customize your target audience to get the best results for your campaign.
