    The term freelancing is quite ‘in-market’ these days. With time, more and more people are attracted towards its concept.

    What is freelancing?

    Freelancing in basic words, is making use of your skills and techniques to form alliance with clients who can be huge corporations or a simple investor, and work together to achieve gals with no commitment. They get done various assignments without being committed to any employer. It generally involves jobs (commonly known as gigs) that also allows you to work from home. Being freelancer, makes you self-employed.
