While designing We Are not Freelancers we had one goal in mind. Our goal was to get featured on as many web galleries as possible.
This isn’t easy by any stretch of the imagination, we had never achieved it before so why would we do it now? From start to finish this blog took about 8 days to create but I think of those 8 days I must have spent every hour of them on the design.
Why did we want to be featured on galleries?
This is an unordered test list:
- List item 1
- List item 2
- List item 3
Was it ego? Was it recognition?
A little bit and A little bit.
This is an ordered list test:

But. The main reason was traffic and the spin offs of that. I strongly believe that if you are a start up blogger and you have a bit of a budget/time to play with you should really put a lot of focus into your design.
We managed to get featured on quite a few CSS galleries and the result was 2000 visitors per day for the first 5 days. That is a lot of visitors for a new blog.
But that was only the start.
With that comes features on other blogs, We Are not Freelancers has been featured on many blogs for ‘Best Footers’, Best Headers’, ‘Best Tweet Birds’, Top this and Top that.
