Eve Bodeux and I just (today!) recorded a new episode of Speaking of Translation, and we hope you find it useful! This episode covers website and online presence tips for freelancers, including:
-Why are a website and an online presence important, or not important?
-What are some factors to consider when choosing a web designer, and how much should a website cost?
-What other online platforms might you want to be on?
-How can blogging be used as a marketing tool?
-What does Eve look for in the online presence of people to whom she might subcontract work?
Note: we appreciate all of your comments, and we’d particularly enjoy hearing from anyone who has found a translation client through a “non-traditional” online presence such as Instagram, Pinterest, etc. (listen to the episode for Corinne’s story of finding a client on Yelp).

Website and online presence tips for freelancers
Thank you very much Corinne and Eve for such an enlightening podcast. I learned tons of useful info to plan, refurbish and update my online presence. You are always hands on and informative, Corinne. No doubt that is one of the many things behind the success of your blog.
As an interpreter (yes, I really am good at both translating and interpreting) I can read voices a lot and both of yours sounded sincere and expertly informed.
Thanks again,
