Browsing the internet for poorly designed web sites is another way to find potential clients, but contacting them requires tact. If you come across a web site that you think you could greatly improve, suggest it to them in the nicest way possible or they might find your approach insulting.
Another great source for finding web design clients is freelance work web sites. Freelance work web sites are not only for web design, they also have many categories for other professions. On these types of web sites, in the web design category, companies or individuals post a web design project that they want completed. Web designers then bid on the project within a specified amount of time.
When the time is up, the company or individual can then go through and view the bids and the web designer's portfolios. They can then choose the web designer that they think will best fit their needs. This is a great way to get your name out there, and since these web sites have rating systems, it is also a great way to start building a good reputation.
So if you have great web design skills, and you are ready to start making extra money as a freelance web site designer, get out there and start building up your clientele.
