Default Design Work

As some of you know I have been put onto a freelance basis by my company, so I'm now out looking for more work,

I'm a designer with one of the top ad agencies here in Dubai, I do a lot of brochure work, corporate and non corporate, leaflets, flyers, press ads, logo and then stationery work,

if anyone knows of anyone who needs some really good work done, at a decent rate, then please PM me and I can speak to you about it and come and see you as well.

Cheers,
Spugsy

(um, hope this doesn't get deleted by the mods, its not really advertising is it?)

Can we all advertise our design companies now?

Our new art management & design + packaging agency is fully operational and legal entity.



Spugsy - I did ask you to let me know what you do best, but didn't hear anything...

according to the rules you are allowed to advertise businesses that are you own so no problems there alot of people put their website link under their signature.

But what if we actually want it to look like a standard Ikea hole?
And Spugsy, if I was trying to get some design business, I would seriously think about changing my avatar from a cucumber.

Get yourself an online portfolio asap. You can use wordpress (use the download version) to set it up, modularity is a good theme to use. one.com have decent rates and are good types.

register a decent dot com name. spugsy.com is available should you want it.

post on dubbizle etc.

Default Re: Design Work

A friend of mine does cheap websites- 90 pounds sterling all in- she uses a template basis <snip> you can see the set up- I would have thought something like that would be simple enough for you- she turns it round quickly.

It includes 40 pages
The price includes:

*The actual website, and design.
*Hosting for 1 year
*A website name/address - whatever you want as long as it's available
*A shop to make some cash! if you want one
*Use of your own logo if you have one
*Guestbook
*Blog
*Gallery
*Loads of webspace
*Use of metatags - so you can be found easily in search engines like google
*Tracking, so you can see how many visitors you've had
*No pop-ups or ads

If you use her then tell her Cat recommended her and she may do you a better rate PM me for details
