Hi Isabel Aug 20, 2007

I've also been thinking about this.

You may find a few tips here:

And, on the ProZ home page, if you go to "My ProZ.com", then "My website", you may create a website too.
However, I have no idea of how this might look. Maybe someone with a website on ProZ could give us an insight on this... I also wonder what the domain address a

Googlepages Aug 20, 2007

My website is hosted on googlepages. And I made it myself in less than 2 hours.

Agreed, it's not a state of the art site. In fact, I'm quite unprofessional about it. I use it as a place to experiment.

So what? I do what I enjoy doing.

My website is hosted on googlepages. And I made it myself in less than 2 hours.

Agreed, it's not a state of the art site. In fact, I'm quite unprofessional about it. I use it as a place to experiment.

So what? I do what I enjoy doing.

According to site-statistics I have quite a lot of hits. I've been contacted by many prospective clients through it. More than I can handle. I'm a freelancer and not an agency. So there's only so much work that I can do in a specified period of time.

Another small detail... if you look in my profile, I've given www.ritubhanot.com as my web-site.

It's a domain name that I bought for USD 10/ annum. I just pointed it to my googlepages website.

I tried proz site-creator but it is just too complicated for me. I don't have that sort of time. I don't want to outsource my own web-site to someone else.

I'm quite happy with my present clientele. I can't handle more work than I'm doing right now. So I think I can afford to play with my site...

It still brings me new clients. Good for my ego

But can't handle the jobs. So I just send a polite e-mail refusing the offer. But it does feel good because it is my original work.

Ritu: thank you so much for sharing your experience with this free hosting system. So, just by buying a domain you can tackle the issue of having google.pages as part of your name-domain... Interesting

Anne, you referred me to a very relevant poll, reaally useful!. thanks! As you, I've seen the Proz website tool but never gave it a try... just (probably unfairly) thought it to be more of the same layout.

You're welcome Isabel, Aug 20, 2007

and I look forward to seeing your brand new site!
I don't have time for it right now, but what Ritu says about Googlepages is really encouraging, it might take me less time than I thought to simply go for it.

¡Suerte!
