Hi, I'm a WordPress developer. I also sell licensed products (Envato, Freepik, etc.). I work on speed optimization and SEO. Actually, I do everything related to the internet. However, I have difficulty finding clients.How can I find them? I use Fiverr and want to become a JR member here soon.
 
If what you are is just a reseller of third party products (which are cheaper and easier to get with the correct license information from the source not you I assume?) and you can tinker around the basic wp and change SEO settings, then good luck finding clients I think starting is like you and stays like you, and the pool increases incrementally every day.

Can you create plugins easily? What about themes? How long do those take you to make from scratch? Can you create custom CSS files for responsive template conversions? Can you create a batch install file and install 10 sites, with a custom setup and theme? Can you work and fix almost everything related to elementor?

That's really where the money is to be made, as those skills are in demand by people who can't find professionals among the noobs, as they don't have the patience or experience to learn these skills, as they take years.

There are webmaster platforms where everyone is about their vision and bringing it to life, and you can discuss and talk there as well as sell services, BHW included.

Thank you for reply
 
Good luck on your new journey with BHW. You may find many clients here.
 
That's a very good question, and it bothers me too, because we're very professional, but we can't get new clients, and it's killing me, so what's the best way to do it?
 
Market is already saturated with wordpress freelancers. I suggest newbies to get a full time job for stable income.

How are you advertising at the moment

There are plenty of ways to find clientele. So, what you'll hear in this thread and on this forum is how saturated Upwork, Freelancer, Fiverr, etc. You should be advertising your services on all of them.

Including:
- Freelancer
- Upwork
= Toptal
- Guru
- Linkedin
- Instagram
- Facebook
- Craigslist.

Alternatively, you should be marketing your services on Linkedin. There's an entire market of possibilities on Linkedin and it's good to network.

You can write a script (python is pretty easy, see this guide) to scan yelp and other social media for websites and then filter them through a mobile checker OR manually check them. If they're not modernized sites, approach the owner for an upgrade.

There are lead lists you can either scrape or buy to email or manually contact the leads.

Fluff up your portfolio of previous work, market yourself, the business will come to you.
 
Getting hired as a WordPress developer involves a combination of showcasing your skills, building a strong portfolio, and effectively marketing yourself. Break a leg!
