    Time to update my earlier comment in another place:

    Freelancers who are looking for local clients should add one more marketing tool to their arsenal: http://www.FreelanceLocalTech.com. The site is designed to help you market your services to clients in your local community.

    Our latest news: We added Canada! We now support freelancer listings for both USA and Canada. Australia is being added next week and we’ll likely add the UK in the next month or so. Other countries will be added pretty quickly after that. We’ll post announcements on the site’s blog as we add new countries.

    Bonus offers: Canadian freelancers who post approved listings will get an automatic 2-month listing upgrade. Any freelancer — whether you’re a new listing or an existing one — who add a backlink from their site to FreelanceLocalTech will also get an additional 2-month listing upgrade. See the site for details on these offers (expires 11/15/2007).

    About FreelanceLocalTech.com:

    Creating a consultant listing is FREE. Posting a client project/need is also free. Consultants and clients contact each other directly. FreelanceLocalTech is only helping consultants and clients find each other; we don’t want to be in the middle of your relationship or get a commission for each project.

    This is the anti-elance/guru/getafreelancer site. No bidding. No foreign competition driving down your rates. Just consultant ads organized by location and services… and clients coming to the site looking for consultants in a particular city and maybe posting their needs (although most just call consultants directly after reading the consultant listings on the site).

    It’s free, it’s simple, and it’s helping hundreds of USA and Canadian freelancers find new clients! Check out http://www.FreelanceLocalTech.com.
