Anyone Looking for a Wordpress or Ruby Dev?
So, instead of drop a web dev pitch here I'm just going to ask - what's a really great way to land some web development work as a freelancer?
Here's the thing. I've been doing it for about 3 years already, but I got spoiled since all my clients were based on referrals. Plus I was lucky because when I got in it my first clients were very well connected. So it just spread from there.
I decided to make a change for a while and work for a single company. I decided that that wasn't for me and I'm back again doing the freelance thing. But instead of going the slow route and building up referral clientele again I want to jump start the process with new solid clients.
And the rub is this - I moved to the middle of nowhere to focus on building a web application. I'm dead smack in between San Fran and LA - in silent hill. Thankfully I've got a decent cushion of money to live with for a while but it's not going to last forever! Otherwise the obviously easy thing to do is to go to dev and tech meet-ups (None in my area).
Anyway, your thoughts are warmly welcomed.
