You can search for freelance projects in a number of ways:
- use the keyword search option. I typed in the term ‘content’ which lists jobs in the Writing/Translation category
- By the listed categories – try IT/Web/Programming or Writing/Translation
- use specific job titles or skills that businesses are looking for.
I tried ‘web copywriter’, ‘content producer’, ‘web page content’, ‘web image editing’, ‘SEO’

Another day, another jobs board… this time it’s Authentic Jobs for web and creative professionals.
Set up by the web legend that is Cameron Moll, the jobs listed on the site tend to be of a more technical nature, but it’s worth keeping an eye on for positions that are listed from the UK. Plus the site is just so gorgeously simple in looks and in navigation.

Until about a month ago I didn’t even know this gem of a jobs website even existed!
My other half, like many others has been looking for work in the recession and was directed this jobs website by JobCentrePlus. I had the perception that it would be mostly local government jobs, but I was pleasantly surprised that there was quite a comprehensive list of web content jobs.
I searched using following keywords:
- web
- digital
- content
- writer
Its search engine didn’t much like the first two keywords, but ‘content’ and ‘writer’ yielded decent results.
- You are then presented with a number of job areas relating to content. You can choose a maximum of 3.
- Next you input the postcode or town/city you are looking for a job and the radius in which you are looking for work. Click on the Search button.
- This returns the results.

I have been trawling Google for charity and voluntary sector jobs boards in the UK that include digital content jobs.
It’s best not to limit your search to just one particular keyword. Searching with the following terms will help you to find most digital and web content opportunities listed on each jobs board:
