How To Get More Done As A Freelance Web Designer
There are a lot of daily tasks a freelance web designer will go through:
- Going through emails
- Sending website planners to potential clients
- Reading and replying to returned website planners
- Quoting people for services
- Sending proposals
- Replying to current clients about different enquiries
- Going through new Twitter followers
- Tweeting
- Approving blog comments
- Replying to friends
- Writing blog posts
- etc.
After going through all these daily tasks, it can be very easy to see your day come and go without getting any ‘real’ work done.
When I finished University and started freelancing full time I found myself getting caught up with these daily tasks so I went about making some changes and trying to find a more effective way of dealing with them. Here are several techniques I use for getting more done.

30 Creative Twitter Theme Backgrounds
One thing I love about Twitter is it’s simplicity. The concept is simple, the usage is simple and even the design is simple. As far as your theme is concerned you are restricted to changing a few colours and adding a background, keeping things nice and clean and ensuring the app doesn’t become a mess like MySpace did 
These restrictions limit our creativity boundaries so if you want to make an impression with your Twitter profile it all comes down to the background.
I’ve compiled a list of Twitter profiles who have impressive creative backgrounds, which I feel stand out above the rest. Feel free to share any you’ve come across and you can also follow me on Twitter.
