Best place to find a solid reliable web developer? by payymein startups

[–]james-f -2 points-1 points ago

payyme - Sure. I am a freelance developer looking for work. But also, I run Freelancify.com.

So Freelancify has only been up for 3 weeks, but ALL of my freelancer signups came from folks who either read Hacker News or Reddit's dev subs. Those came from a couple articles I wrote. Anyways, I noticed that the freelancers on the site are all solid, have higher rates, etc. which would make sense because anybody worth their salt is probably reading HN on a daily basis so they can always learn more, stay updated, etc. The good ones anyways..

But yes, I'm looking for work myself too. You can email me at james@freelancify.com if you're interested in seeing what I can offer.

Yes. I was suggested from a friend to post it in this sub-reddit yesterday. As for the other times, I did post this in the /startups one before and got a comment that I should post in other subs (which at the time I thought was maybe unethical but was told otherwise), hence why I posted them in several subreddits. [Ironically they didn't do well because they probably all contained the same users] http://www.reddit.com/r/startups/comments/oz567/how_i_learned_enough_ruby_on_rails_in_12_weeks_to/

But with that said, like @Spaceomega said, the article is def worth reading to those who haven't, and the reason my friend suggested I do this one is because it's going to be more designers and less developers than that have came across this article previously.

Thanks guys.. and glad you all found it useful. I'm 100% sure the reason why that post got popular today was because of the cat picture..

I love Reddit! I actually troll the main Reddit page everyday but never participated.. this will change. Noob question: when you post links, is it considered not cool submitting to multiple subreddits or is it totally fine? I only posted to one, this /startups. Don't know the "unofficial" rules yet..
