I will be outsourcing those to other people that will do it cheaper so that I make a profit. I am setting up a consulting Business per say. Is this legal in California.
Outsourcing jobs to myself from the company I work for.

Lately I’ve been running across so many websites that needs to be developed. And I’m stuck when it comes to contacting them and letting them know about my service.

Is there a proper way of telling them about my service, I dont want to come TOO professional that they’ll think I’m a Spam or a big web design firm.

Any suggestions on how to email potential clients? Thanks!
I

I know doing volunteer websites are one. I want to create a portfolio website for myself but I currently can’t afford a domain and monthly hosting yet.

I’m about 4-5 years of self-taught HTML and CSS with a about almost a year of experience with PHP. I’ve been designing with photoshop for about 2-3 years now and there’s a lot of professional designs I have done.

What else could I possibly do to get my name out there some more and get myself a web designing job? I also prefer not to code but I can if I have to and I like to do pretty basic websites for people. I still need a lot of experience with databases and mySQL so I don’t really want to do anything too big too.

Thanks for the help. I’ll choose a best answer too. :)

Everywhere I’ve checked is pretty full and I also cannot seem to find any web design jobs so I’m turning to Yahoo.

I’m a 16 year old web designer (my age seems to be my downfall) but I’ve very skilled. I just need ideas as to where I can find work. I’ve tried Get a Freelancer and other sites but I’ve had no success yet. Is there any place that will hire me and allow me to work from home (I doubt theres anywhere locally) that I would be able to send examples of previous work to?

Any help finding some web design jobs would be outstanding. Thanks.

And I have certification of basic knowledge of html, xhtml, css, and I know some javascript. Is this enough to get an entry level job as web designer/developer? Would I be struggling to learn and catch up with others that went to school for it? I don’t want to get in over my head but I have a technology job recruiter calling me for a web job. I am also expecting to get my BFA in graphic design in May, and I am very good with the graphic programs. (Illustrator, Indesign, Photoshop) I want to about how much web knowledge I am expected to know without real world job experience.
