I like the idea. One suggestion, provide the "social proof" so people are confident you can pull it off.

- seyz 14y agoWhat do you mean by "social proof"? I'm not sure to understand.
- dirtyaura 14y agoI think he means that you should add references from the people you've worked for, e.g. "Sandro is a great developer who can deliver on time" Tim from Company X. I wouldn't worry about that too much. If you get a deal - which shouldn't be a problem as your price is very reasonable, even low - deliver it on time, maybe putting a little extra effort if needed, and use it as your first reference.
- seyz 14y agoOh I see! There's already a link to my Linkedin account with my recommendations. Not sure that the website is the right place to put these recommendations. However, maybe I need to list all the projects in a 'portfolio' page.
- dirtyaura 14y agoPeople,who are three or more degrees away from you in LinkedIn, can't see your recommendations at the moment. Anyway, the idea is to highlight one or two of these recommendations, because "social proof" usually works well. See e.g. http://basecamp.com/ http://basecamp.com/ landing page.
- seyz 14y agoOh ok, I will think about it... thanks very much for the suggestion!
