Looking for a new project. I'm a freelance iOS developer and posted in the most recent "looking for project" topic but I wonder about whether that's actually very effective.
How did you get your "Confidential" Airline gigs?
there are posts all the times in coding sub-reddits asking what people should charge and 1 post in particular literally asked for a "levels.fyi for contractors" so I made it.
My specialties are everything but front end, but it's fun to start learning.
1. I run a blog that is about 4 years old. I spend maybe 5 hours or so each month writing a new post to keep it fresh, and an additional 2-3 doing generic maintenance work (responding to comments, SEO checks, etc). This generates good income for me.
2. I am working on a saas project that fixes a simple but very important problem. Cloud functions make my life so much easier, it's incredible. This generates no income, but probably will.
3. I run https://contractrates.fyi. We are a crowdsourced dataset of freelancing hourly rates. I don't know why this site didn't exist already because it's such an obvious problem. Anyway, I built it and the reception has been insane. It makes zero money because I can't charge people to share information, but it's a nice resume boost site and a joy to work on. This is the only one I'm okay to share :)
I am just obsessed with building stuff. Adhd is a significant advantage if you can harness it correctly shrug.
