FREELANCE PHILIPPINES is a “website set up to be a place where freelance graphic designers, art directors, programmers, writers and editors from the Philippines meet with potential clients who post details of their projects and receive bids online.”

The beauty of this system is that it takes out the cost of marketing and advertising and passes those savings on to the client and contractor. Imagine an Ebay-like community where Filipino independent contractors can meet with potential clients, expand relationships, build reputations, and do what they do best without having to leave their desks (and deal with the traffic!). A place where a small or medium sized company can look for a qualified parttimer to do their website, or their brochure, without going through the expensive process of hiring an advertising agency or placing an ad.
