Indian Designer Has Earned $2.57M Via This Contest Site

DesignCrowd is a marketplace for design services.

Clients describe what they want and freelancers submit their designs. The client then picks their favorite and the winning freelancer gets paid 😎

Some freelancers have earned big money on DesignCrowd over the years.

Top of the leaderboard 👇

• Anand Thangavel (aka pb) from India – $2.57M
• Sbss from India – $573K
• GLDesigns from USA – $431K
• ArtTank from Philippines – $375K
• Kreative Fingers from India – $329K

Sounds great.

However, I looked at 1110 recently completed design contests posted on this page.

The average prize money for a contest was $187.

And there was a lot of competition for each contest: an average of 62 designers submitting 2.5 designs apiece 😕

That said, if you’re confident in your skills and can pump out designs quickly, you might be able to earn a lot of money on DesignCrowd.

If nothing else, it can help you build up a portfolio 💪
