The Pakistani Spectator

If you are a graphic designer, web developer, web designer, software developer, database administrator, IT consultant, writer, IT operator or even engineer or medical professional, you can take advantage of the Internet and start earning by working online as full time or as part time as a side job along with your day job.

You can earn while remaining in Pakistan in any city if you have Internet connection and a computer. There are numerous websites on the Internet like Elance, GetAFreelancer, Ifreelance where you can get projects and bid on those projects to win them and then start earning. The biggest problem is how to start, because initially you dont have any examples or profiles, or portfolio to show to the prospective clients.

But this is not much of a problem. For example if you are a graphic designer and want to get work from the free lance website, you should create some good images and then upload them to the website of freelance website and show that work to the clients to win the projects.

Most importantly, initially concentrate of making customers instead of making money. I am not saying work for free, but money should not be the major focus initially. Build your portfolio, get experience, and after a while you will be able to have your own clients.
