SEEKING WORK- Remote or Bay Area

Every website and marketing push involves content. But is your content effectively supporting your business goals? Is it performing as well as you want it to?

Chances are, if you hired a writer, or if you did it yourself, your content could do more to achieve your business goals. The missing ingredient is usually a careful combination of information/UX design, content, and ongoing testing.

I CAN HELP

If your content is not performing as well as you'd like, or you need new content for your marketing efforts, let me know and I'll gladly take some time to chat with you about potential solutions. If I'm the right fit for your needs, I'll share work samples and work up a proposal.

About Me:

I started off in web development, doing mid-large size lead generation web sites. As a big part of dealing with lead generation, I became proficient in RESTful API integration and development, along with complex javascript web applications used for analytics. I then began working on iPhone and iPad applications over the years, working on apps for Cie Studios, BuySellAds, and their respective clients. My ability to understand complex api's, also helped me build connection management and caching systems for iOS apps that assured the user that their information would always be posted to the server, regardless of their data connection.

+1 for Joe.. great team member!
SEEKING WORK -- Remote, Bay Area, or SoCal

I'm a writer. I'm a pretty good one, too. (Feel free to look at my HN history and vehemently disagree, however.) I've been published in Slate, Priceonomics, Harvard Business Review, and other blogs and mags. I've been on NPR a few times, which was pretty darned fun.

By day I'm a marketer and growth optimizer. But recently I've signed a book deal, and I would love to take more time to focus on it. So I'm looking for remote and freelance opportunities. The sort of work that's interesting and pays the bills, or if you're feeling unusually generous, the sort that keeps me in Teslas and Tom Ford.

I do: content, web and app copy, analysis, market research, customer lifecycle communications, voice, PR strategy, etc.

You need: copy that converts.

Please email me if interested: jonfnathanson @ gmail.com

SEEKING FREELANCER - Remote Ok

I've co-founded startup called movidhep.com which is coded in C# Asp.net MVC and uses RavenDB as a backend.

We've got a couple of projects that we need some help with.

One of the projects is very ravendb centric so if you have experience there definitely shoot me an email.

Another project involves recording a video from a mobile app and uploading it to vimeo and/or elsewhere.

Two queries:

1- Any non .NET work? 2- How to contact?

Ready to help you on c# , asp.net mvc part. arjuns(dot)sapkota(at)gmail.com
SEEKING WORK - New York City/Brooklyn or Remote

I am a fullstack web developer who typically writes Ruby and Javascript/Coffeescript. I have been working with Rails for the last three years and working on the front end (markup and styling) since I was in high school (ten years ago). My recent projects include an XBRL parser to extract balance sheets, work on a Rails app for Bookandtable.com (checkout their staging url at http://staging.bookandtable.com, they're about to launch), and a JS/frontend heavy web app to endorse candidates in the NYC mayoral primary.

I am looking for part time/half time work as I have one other client at the moment. I am teaching him the Rails framework as we work together re-writing his production Drupal app in Rails.

I'm an experienced software developer with a strong full-stack web background. I don't just build your app/site, I'll also help you put the concept together if need be, and I'm good at filling the blanks with underspecified projects.

Server-side (PHP, Ruby on Rails, Node.js), client-side (HTML5/CSS/JS), also C/C++, ObjectiveC (iOS and OS X development), Java, Ruby, Delphi and many other languages and technologies.

I offer scalability consulting for high-throughput web apps and can make MVPs very quickly.

Looks like your site is down.

Did you have MVP packages before?
