I originally started out as a VA (virtual assistant) and still market myself (in part) that way. My company provides virtual editorial assistance- ghostwriting, editing, research, etc. I get some referrals from other IVAA members (Int'l Virtual Assistants Association), current clients, and website traffic. I also write my own promotional articles, press releases, etc., and get some business from that.

You can try http://forums.digitalpoint.com it's free and it rocks. :thumbup:

I was really disappointed when Sitepoint started charging.

My website is in my sig, but most of it is word of mouth

Perfomancing.com's blog exchange. Or Problogger.net's.
