50 years ago people started out in a job on the lowest rung available and spent 40 years working their way up the corporate ladder. Nowadays people are happy to hop from job to job as they look to shortcut their career but in addition the job security that our parents enjoyed is no longer a fact of life. The recession and inflation has put further pressure on personal finances and all around the world people are looking to supplement their income with their skills.
For this reason, sites like Freelancer and eLance have seen a phenomenal rise in the number of people competing for jobs and it doesn't matter whether it's programming, design, content writing, voice over or even resume writing, the demand is strong for people needing to get work done quickly and cheaply, by-passing traditional companies who have their own costs to pay.
GetLancer is not just another Freelancer clone but we have taken the best and most popular features from a range of sites including eLance, Scriptlance, vWorker and Guru to create the ultimate freelancer marketplace software.
Auto-Pilot Income
GetLancer has been designed to make you money in a whole variety of ways to ensure that you have a consistent income around the clock. You can choose to charge a listing fee for every project that is posted. Scriptlance do this and make hundreds of dollars each day just from people listing their projects. The next method is to take a commission on the final project price, so if you have a 5% commission and the project cost $1,000, you will make $50 when the project is closed.
You can also monetize your website in other ways such as charging an escrow fee or a withdrawal fee or with a bit of customization you can add additional features like making a project be featured or stand out or verifying the freelancers so the project creators can have more confidence that their project will be completed.
Geo-Location Based Freelance Services
Most freelancer websites only have one global option and will connect people from around the world. But GetLancer is designed to be as flexible as possible and can work on a location basis if you want. For example you might want to create a freelance website only for Germany and so you would list the German cities and the people who post the projects can decide if they want to work with someone from a particular city.
No other website has this kind of technology and it means you can start targeting niches by providing freelance services only to certain areas.
User Friendly Employer Dashboard
Your project creators need a simple and easy way to post their project requirements and manage the bids that are received and that's exactly what GetLancer does. We've made it as simple as possible for your users to post new projects so that they don't get 'bored' or 'confused' half way through the process. Once the bids start coming in an easy to use review system enables the user to discuss the project with freelancers before selecting the chosen candidate.
Once the freelancer has been chosen, the user has the option to transfer all or part of the money in to escrow and both the user and the freelancer can create milestones to ensure the project remains on target. Once the project is completed the user can select to release the escrow payment.
Advanced Freelancer Dashboard
Everything your freelancer will want to efficiently manage their projects and find new projects is included in GetLancer. It even comes with several management systems so the freelancer can keep a track of which projects they have submitted a proposal for, which ones are waiting for escrow, which ones need to be completed and more. There is also a milestone management system which helps the freelancer keep control over which projects need to be worked on urgently and which ones are nearing completion.
Freelancers also get their own profile page which can be used as a marketing platform to talk about their skills and achievements as well as have the ability to add a portfolio to prove their skills.
Efficient Admin Area
Some companies create the admin area as a bolt on afterthought but Agriya takes pride and effort in to creating easy to use, user friendly admin areas with intuitive controls and a focus on making actions as easy as possible for the admin. Every function has been thought out to provide a quick shortcut to make any process as easy as possible and where ever we can we have added automation in to the system from collecting payments, processing withdrawals and even handling disputes automatically.
Customizing GetLancer
GetLancer is built on the CakePHP 2.0 Framework which is fully documented on the CakePHP website. It uses the an external templating system to separate design from code and also utilizes external language system so that the script can easily be translated in to multiple languages through the admin area where you simply enter a translated version of each piece of text on the site. An experienced designer and developer will be able to create a completely new design and layout for the script or alternatively Agriya can provide you with a quote and timeframe on how long it will take to complete.
Hosting Requirements
GetLancer should run fine on most shared servers which use cPanel, however as your site grows to several hundred active users per day you may need to upgrade to a more powerful hosting solution. Agriya can provide no support for customers who choose GoDaddy hosting as their hosting service is incompatible with Agriya's software. Agriya can recommend several hosting solutions.
