While not everyone will be earning at those levels right away, freelancing does offer plenty of opportunities to grow one’s career.

In this article, we have gathered insights from various Web3 freelancers and taken note of their best tips to find a freelance job.

We have put these together in a easy to read guide that will get you started with a Web3 career.

Use platforms to find a Web3 freelance jobs

Many readers ask, “Where can I find a freelance job?”

While there are many ways to go about this, the obvious choice would be to create an account on a website.

Freelancing sites connect freelancers with potential clients and leverage the traffic and security that their platforms provide.

As detailed by The Mega Maxi’s own Head of Content – Jhas Vidal found her current stint when the TMM founder reached out to her on popular site Upwork.

You can find a freelance job on UpworkCompetition remains stiff as you’ll be competing against hundreds or thousands of freelancers.

Make sure to setup your profile and build your portfolio to give yourself a chance of getting opportunities on these platforms.

Join a community

With the right people in your corner, you can go places.

As Web3 freelance artist, Marso advises beginners to:

Find a community to help you and guide you in the path that you are going to take here in the Web3 space

Web3 communities cater to a wide variety of members – from builders, traders, and artists among others.

Fellow community members can teach you best practices and help you navigate the Web3 industry. They can also help you land a freelance job through a helpful introduction.

Furthermore, you can also find fulfillment in a community by adding value.

Raine, a Web3 freelance marketer and founder of FilipinasNFT, advocates that beginners should build their network and provide value to others. Opportunities will flow naturally.

Interested in joining a Web3 community? Check out our list here.

Build a strong portfolio to get a freelance job

Jobseekers face the eternal dillema – how do you get a job that requires experience if you need a job to get experience?

Luckily, experience and a successful track record can come from many places.

Be a Web3 freelance volunteer

Before you tell me the negatives of doing work for free, let me tell you about the advantages.

Volunteer work provides you with actual experience. Whether it’s helping an Non-Fungible Token (NFT) project by being a Discord moderator, or creating engaging content for a Web3 website, these opportunities arm you with valuable learnings.

In addition, as a volunteer, you get to build connections with professionals in the space. From business founders, to artists and engineers.

Remember what we’ve said in the past? Network > Networth.

Create viral content

Never created paid art? No problem. Make it for free.

Create content such as art, music, writing, or videos, and make them go viral. This serves as a great way to advertise your work. The more likes and engagement that you get, stand as testament to the quality of your work.

Interested parties will see these viral content and engage you for your service.

Web3 freelance host Banana has a weekly Twitter Space called Judgementea where she discusses important events within the local industry. With an average of 50 audience listening, potential customers can see the power of her hosting skills.

#judgementea recap

• web3 sweatshops exploit newcomers
— ginawang cash cows yung mga grinders/hustlers new to web3
— scaring newbs with contracts & NDAs that aren't legal anywhere para hindi mag-talk
— 50% or more ang cut ng web3 agency; no permit, no receipts

Be proactive

Finally, remain persistent in your search for a Web3 freelance job.

Social media tends to highlight outliers and success stories. But the fact is that freelancing, just as any career is a long-term journey. Expect many bumps and failures along the way.

Here are other ways to give you success:

  • Attend networking events – put yourself out there and build connections in person. It takes one connection to change your life.
  • Keep your profile up to date – as you gather experience and credibility in Web3, add these continuously on to your profiles in networking and freelancing sites. In no time, interested clients will see a powerful resume.
  • Continue learning – whether it’s by studying courses or listening to thought leaders, keep building on your skills. This will make your services more valuable.
