What is a Freelancer? A Freelancer is a independently employed individual offering his services, to organizations and regularly to different customers at once. The sort of work freelances do differ from every client. Certainty a business would need some work done that can't be fulfilled by their employees thus a freelancer is hired for the job. A few examples would be as a advertiser to sell their products, a freelance journalist writing articles and blog entries, IT related services such as designing a memorable logo for the company.
Freelancing is rather convenient and flexible since you set your own working hours full-time or part-time but clients have requirements and specifications to fulfilled like deadline of the work.
Furthermore, freelancing allows you to set your own price, which is regularly higher than what you'd make as a employee doing likewise work.
The regularity of freelance work can vary, it is not certain and irregular. You can either work for the same clients over a long period of time or different clients every time. For example, a freelance writer might have a client that requires an article twice a week ongoing for their news site. Or a freelance IT specialist that have a client that requires the installation of computers with a network in their office to boost productivity.
Below is what I believe to be the top Top FreeLance Jobs For IT Professionals

In this rapidly changing and modern world, businesses can't rely on brick and mortar presence anymore, businesses must adapt and change. Established business can be toppled by new and more innovative businesses. They need to have a web presence too in order to become competitive to market and sell their products and services. Take Amazon for example, is more valuable than the other traditional retailers in the United States.
2.) Mobile Developers
Majority of youth today uses smartphones so developing apps like the Amazon Shopping app that allows the users to browse, search and buy products right from the user smartphone is a great business move to increase revenue by making it convenient for users due to not having to deal with the hassle of commute to any of their branches saving time and money and the fact that users can see if they are any stocks and sizes available.
3.) Designers & Creatives
Businesses also need to have an ironic logo to represent their businesses so customers can easily recognize their brand, they also need someone to create a beautiful but usable websites and apps which utilize multimedia such as sounds, pictures, graphics and video clips that appeal to consumers.

The businesses also need marketing experts for handling public relations, publicity and marketing.
