Hey @warrensteem, I hear you. Finding clients is usually a struggle to begin with. There's a bunch of different marketplaces you could try for starters. Just to get something going. Afterwards, when you've gained a lot of customers, I'd recommend setting up your own website instead.

It all depends on what you can do actually, and how much you believe your work is worth. Marketplaces like Fiverr for instance, has a fixed price of $5, so you won't be able to change it.. And you'll earn $4 for each order. They take 20% commission. If you're more into something bigger than that, then you have Freelancer. That might actually be a good pick for you, as you can bid on peoples listings, and also offer them your expertise and set the price yourself.

Oh man... Fiverr is where I started my web dev freelance career around 5 years ago... interesting times. Started building $50 sites... then $100.... then $500, to finally being able to find work outside of the platform due to the portfolio I was building along the way. Not sure how Fiverr works now, but at the time, processing and confirming 100 orders was a job onto itself! It definitely helped me get comfortable communicating with clients though. It also helped me view the work I was doing as a valuable asset versus just a hobby, which is hard to do when you're not getting paid for stuff you're creating.
