Thank you for responding.
What I have been doing wrong is charging a flat rate for projects that is too low. Then the clients hold the final payment hostage while asking for unending changes.
I got smarter in my latest jobs, but they were only very small ones for low money. I have only been earning $15 per hour.
I would be incredibly happy to make $50 per hour for 3 months. I think my next best bet is to contact dev shops in my city that have clients already.

- danielweber 14y agoThen the clients hold the final payment hostage while asking for unending changes How much of your work did they have at this point? The client should be discouraged from adding more and more work because it delays them getting their website/software/app in their own possession.
