I find the clients mainly via word-of-mouth. I did several projects for free, and those paid off: I was recommended to other business owners who needed such services, but this time I got paid. Some clients just found my business website in Google, asked for a meeting and I got the jobs. A third way was to tell all my friends what is my current business. As some of them run their own advertising agencies, I've got some more jobs through them. Another method, which failed miserably, was to call my former business partners, suppliers, distributors, and tell them about my services. None of them was willing to ask me to pitch for jobs they had available, as they probably had already set their deals and there was no desire or no room for change.

Take the funny side of things and learn: you'll be better. My first blogging attempt (which was on a blogspot blog) also brought me $1.7 for some 10 days of work. :lol: You are funny, bluefrogx!

I've also learned from mistakes, and as you can see, the direct income is not yet so great. Luckily I decided to use the knowledge and apply it to other people's sites. If you are interested, I can write some more detailed articles on this topic, so you can see what programs I used and how. Unfortunately, I might have done something really bad in Google's eyes, as my PR dropped to 2 (from the 5 I had in January, to 4 in April). Thank you, Shankar.
