Hey,
So where to find remote client? now I’m seeking for client. As a Full stack developer with 17+ years of experience I can create any project on pure PHP/MySql/JQUERY/HTML5/CSS3. A lot of experience with ecommerce, crypto, etc. Both front-end and back-end. Developed many successful complex projects from scratch. Can create a new one and customize your project. Please do not recommend upwork and fiverr. Worked with upword when it was Odesk (from 2007). Now its garbage site with fake jobs and stupid connects system. I’m interested in direct clients with projects with a budget from $5k-$10k.
I will be glad to hear your recommendations.
so you want direct clients… but want to find them through a third party.
You tout that you work in “pure” Jquery… which is non-pure Javascript…
You want a 5k budget minimum, and to be freelance, but you dont want to use the freelance markets.
You’ve got 17+ years of experience with “many successful complex projects”, but no contacts who could get you clients.
I’d like to win the lottery without buying a ticket.
What is the point of your comment? I am not interested in your opinion because you are very far away and especially I don’t have to prove or explain anything to you. I have done projects with a budget of over 100K if you are so interested. Your stupid nitpicking is absolutely pointless. I have always been surprised by such commentators. I asked for practical advice and not stupid thoughts about some lotteries.
The point of the post is to point out the unrealistic statements in your post.
I dont care if you’re interested or not 
you see, you posted in a public place. Which means… the public gets to view and respond.
You are correct, you dont have to explain anything to me… but if i’m hiring people, i’m pointing out where anyone worth their salt is going to look at your post and question you, because what you’re saying sounds like a recent college graduate trying to lie their way through their first CV.
If your reaction to someone pointing out the flaws in your statements is “Your stupid i dont want to talk to you”… good luck in getting any clients. Dont worry, i’m sure they wont come to the place you’re asking for recommendations from to check up on you.
If you’re trying to swing a **** around with the 100K comment, my current employment spends that much in a week, every week, on VM’s alone. Does that make my comment better? No. Did it make yours better? No. See how that works?
Incidentally, we’ll toss one more on the pile. “I’m not interested in your opinion because you are very far away”. “Where to find remote client?”
Pssst. I’ll give you a hint. “remote” is “very far away”.
I wonder whether the issue here is that perhaps English isn’t the OP’s first language and that they don’t realise just how badly they’re coming across.
Well its certainly possible, but sticking their response through a google thesaurus doesnt seem to have improved matters.
This also isnt a freelancer marketplace.

With your experience, direct clients are definitely the way to go. Skip Upwork and try LinkedIn outreach—target founders, CTOs, and agencies. Join IndieHackers, r/startups, or Hacker News to network with project owners. Reach out to digital agencies for white-label dev work. Check premium platforms like Dev Technosys, Gun. io, and Flexiple. Also, create a clean portfolio site with strong case studies and consider SEO or LinkedIn ads for lead gen. Posting on Dev.to, Twitter, or YouTube about your work can bring inbound leads too. You’ve got the skills—just show up where real businesses hang out. Good luck!
Look for clients where they actually hang out - industry Discord servers, LinkedIn groups, and crypto forums. Partner with good designers who need technical help. Reach out to your old clients for referrals. Most importantly, talk about solving business problems instead of just listing your coding skills. That’s what gets the $5k+ projects
