Elance

Freelance Web Designer

Jun 2012 – Feb 2013 · 8 mos · Bhilai, Chhattisgarh, India

I used to design websites for clients from all around the world. My services included websites using Wordpress CMS. Firstly I would quote the price and time duration required to create and deploy the website. If agreed by the client, then I would start working on the project. Communication to clients was made on a daily basis over Skype, WhatsApp or Elance. After the website creation is done, the website was finally deployed on the server. Following that, the client gave me ratings as well as comments about my work on Elance.
