Digital Pathak's freelancing guide helped me transition from a regular office job to full-time freelancing. I now earn 3x what I made before, with the flexibility to work from my hometown in Kerala.
As a college student, I started content writing through Digital Pathak's resources. Within 6 months, I was earning enough to cover my tuition fees and living expenses without depending on my parents.
After taking a career break for motherhood, Digital Pathak helped me restart my career as a freelance graphic designer. I now work around my child's schedule while contributing to household income.
Start by identifying your skills, creating a portfolio, and setting up profiles on freelancing platforms. We recommend beginning with smaller projects to build your reputation before taking on larger contracts.
Earnings vary based on skills, experience, and niche. Beginners can earn ₹15,000-₹30,000 per month, while experienced freelancers can make ₹50,000-₹1,50,000+ monthly. Specialized skills often command higher rates.
Popular platforms include Upwork, Fiverr, Freelancer.com, Toptal, and PeoplePerHour. For Indian clients, platforms like Worknhire, FlexiJobs, and Guru are also good options.
Use secure payment methods like PayPal, Payoneer, or direct bank transfers. For taxes, maintain records of all income and expenses. In India, freelancers need to file ITR-3 if annual income exceeds ₹2.5 lakhs and may need GST registration if turnover exceeds ₹20 lakhs.
