** PLEASE NOTE: Freelancentral is not a project bidding site. We simply provide a place for freelancers to promote themselves. We believe that cost should not be main driver when it comes to choosing a freelancer. **

** NOTE ALSO: We are not a job listing site. We are simply an online directory on which freelancers can promote their work - and clients can find all the freelancers they need in one place. We do from time to time advertise Placements but these are infrequent. **
