Ask HN: Where to find remote PHP jobs?

#1
I've been developing with PHP/MySQL/Apache/Jquery stack since 2009. I'm looking to get some more clients, particularly to work on LAMP stack type of projects. So far I've tried craigslist, reddit but I find it tough to find remote based projects other than one time gigs (which I'd still be okay with if they were at least 4+ weeks worth of work).

Any other recommendations to landing remote PHP gigs?

Have you looked at Stack Overflow Careers 2.0, specifically for jobs tagged with php [0]? Quite a few of the listings are for part-time positions, if you want something steady but not full-time. Do you check out the monthly Freelancing post on HN [1]?

We're hiring - send us a message: http://www.NetizenCorp.com

We have several commercial clients that have systems based heavily on PHP that we are supporting and have been having trouble finding qualified PHP talent, so remote is definitely an option for us.

That same goes for everyone else here. We're looking for solid PHP talent and trying to avoid having to outsource overseas for it. I had a job posting up but it just came down recently out of frustration from the lack of quality applicants - I can re-post again.

UPDATE: Position has been re-posted: http://www.netizencorp.com/careers

In Sacramento, I've had success landing long-term PHP contract gigs by placing on Craigslist a well-designed Markdown resume rendered to HTML, with links in the top section to other formats (PDF, Markdown source, lowest common denominator plaintext) along with links to my GitHub page and my oDesk profile.
