Long hours, high competition for jobs, tight deadlines, and low budgets make running your own web design firm difficult. There are a lot of websites that provide a way for clients and designers to come together, but which of these are reliable places to find quality jobs? We did a review of the top 10 freelance job boards on webdevnews.net, and the results may be of interest to those looking for new places to network and find clients.

Our top 10 Freelance Sites for Web Design are:

  1. odesk.com
  2. getafreelancer.com
  3. elance.com
  4. rentacoder.com
  5. getacoder.com
  6. scriptlance.com
  7. guru.com
  8. serebra.com
  9. sologig.com
  10. Sourceforge Marketplace

These sites are also good when your workload becomes too much and you need to build a team to work together on projects. Outsourcing through the freelance boards builds a lot of new possibilities for independent web designers. If you need a custom theme designed, a new module coded, someone to do your SEO work, or to lay the installation groundwork for a site to finish up later, you can usually find good people on these boards to work together with from around the world.

We chose oDesk as the top freelancer site because of the number of jobs listed, the quality of the development projects, the innovative billing, collaboration, and work monitoring options, as well as its overall quality and professionalism. GetaFreelancer doesn’t even come close at second place, but the volume of projects posted their and the low rates for outsourcing make it a vibrant marketplace. We had issues with the membership fees at elance, but it is really a top quality site for finding good projects.
