Freelance Jobs and Opportunities


On this page:

A freelancer is simply someone who provides services to others on an independent basis. Freelancers don't work for anyone in particular; they do jobs whenever they can find them, and as their time allows.

Freelancing is ideal for people who want as much flexibility as possible. You can pick and choose the projects you want to bid on ... or choose to take a break when you need one.

Freelancing over the Internet is a great opportunity to work from home. eLance is a global services marketplace that brings together people who need work done with freelancers who have the skills to do the work. Because these jobs can be delivered over the Internet, phone, or fax, the marketplace is truly a global one where people from countries all over the world come together.

There is a wealth of freelance opportunities in a wide variety of fields:

  • Business
  • Computer
  • Creative
  • Education/Career
  • Engineering
  • Family and Household
  • Financial
  • Legal
  • Marketing
  • Medical
  • Personal
  • Travel and Entertainment
As a freelancer, you make a bid on any projects that interest you (and for which you are qualified, of course). A winning bid is chosen from amongst all those submitted.

Every time you complete a freelance job, the person who hired you submits a "rating" on your services. Do a good job and you'll get a great rating - which is a huge advantage to you ... people looking for freelancers will see that you have satisfied customers and will look more favorably on hiring you for their own projects.

Freelancing is a fabulous way to begin a work at home career. You must register to use this service (registration is free).

Need a Job Done? Hire a Freelancer


Hiring a freelancer is an excellent way of finding qualified people to do a job at competitive prices.

You simply post a job description of what it is you need done. Your job is opened up for bidding; freelancers interested in doing the work will post a bid stating their qualifications, their portfolio (if applicable), and the price at which they're willing to do the work for you.

Each freelancer also has a rating. This rating is provided by the freelancer's previous customers, and will rate the quality of work provided, professionalism, responsiveness, courtesy, and timeliness. That gives you more information so that you can make an informed choice.
