System Admin [ Neo ]
Paid account on the main page really helps with new clients' attraction and makes a promotion of its services more effective. I am very satisfied that portal provides such services, they really justify spent money on it!
I didn't think that the advertising would work but decided to try, I didn't risk for a lot of money. Saying honestly I was surprised by results - now I haven't got free time - always at work.
IS IT EFFECTIVE TO PLACE ADVERTISEMENT ON THE MAIN PAGE?
Yes it is. Because customers are people who do not like to go through all catalogue. If a customer sees avatar, suitable specialization, rating, then he clicks - and he is on you page with YOUR portfolio. That is first that ADVERTISEMENT GIVES -the advantage in attraction of customers' attention to you portfolio.
DOES THE ADVERTISEMET ON THE MAIN PAGE INFLUENCE YOUR RATING?
Yes, but not much. More likely it influence on visits to you page. The matter is that people are not very generous for "+5" points. They put "+1" more often. But if you are a designer and you have got excellent works - YOUR RATING WILL GROW before your eyes.
YOU SHOULD PAY YOUR ATTENTION:
1. On your Portfolio. If you advertise yourself on the main page then you should put your best and qualified works into your portfolio. Otherwise the advertisement will turn against you - more people will see that you have nothing to impress with. And more… Don't put into your portfolio somebody else works. You can get a lot of negative responds. And it is dishonest also.
2. On your contacts. Because YOU ACTIVELY PROMOTE YOUR SERVICES BY ADVERTISING ON THE MAIN PAGE, make sure you provide needed contact information for a customer :). Otherwise, what is it all about?
WHETHER TO SPEND MONEY ON ADVERTISEMENT ON THE MAIN PAGE OR NOT?
It is up to you. You are the master. Your earnings depend on your skill to sell your services, that is the advantage of freelance.
My experience: I AM SATISFIED :)
