Being a freelance web designer can be a challenging, but rewarding career. If you're looking to make your mark in the design world, but have no idea where to start, here are some tips to help you get started:

1. Choose a niche that interests you. There are tons of opportunities for freelancers who work with specific types of clients—for example, some freelancers specialize in working with small businesses, while others focus on larger corporations or government organizations. Make sure you know what kind of projects appeal to your personality type and skillset before diving in.

2. Find clients who suit your style and experience level. There's no use working on projects that don't interest you or aren't within your comfort zone—you'll end up losing motivation quickly and burn out before long! Find clients who are willing to pay for quality work and treat their employees well so that they'll continue hiring from you again and again.

3. Don't wait until the last minute! You don't want to spend all day working on something just so it can be done by next week's deadline; this will only lead to stress, frustration and disappointment later on when deadlines slip because there wasn't enough time spent planning ahead instead of focusing.
Most of all, you have to have the skill required to thrive.
