Hello, Habrahabr!
A year and a half ago, I made a
website for freelancers , which collected information about orders from the six largest freelance sites and delivered hot to the desktop Windows users hot. The service did not spin up and never brought me money. In a year and a half, I reworked the site several times, he changed servers; I was thrown twice with a new version of the Windows client; I constantly leveled the traffic on the server in order not to overpay ... The service brought me many familiar and new customers.
About the service is written
here , and
here about the history of its creation.

Since its inception, much water has flowed. I almost do not visit freelancing sites - they are overgrown with work and regular customers. There were services similar to my own, for example
alllance .
On June 2, the site Free-lance.ru changed the design, as a result, the parsers that collect information from it stopped working. By promising myself every day that I will take a minute to fix them, I’m making subscribers wait for this event for 10 days. Anyway, I decided to give the site to the care of another good person. In order to find one, I am writing this post.
Technical points:
- php + mysql + nginx;
- base contains 320,000+ projects from 6 freelance exchanges;
- 1000+ users are registered (used to make cleanliness before, so most of them use the service);
- at the same time, the program was launched by an average of 30 people (after a loose free-lance - 10);
- information is stored on 300,000+ transitions to projects;
- new projects are picked up by the client from the subdomain over SSL;
- written a good technical task to develop a new client.
I'm not interested in the site to stop working or become a linkbreaker, so I will not give it to the first person who asked. In the worst case, I will simply redirect to any of the large similar services. There are two cases, in one of which I will give the project:
- you already support a project for the benefit of humanity and are ready to do it;
- or are you ready to just buy a project, then I will choose from people who have offered a lot of money. In this case, the letter should begin with the indication of the proposed amount :-)
Links to projects or financial proposals, please write to

I am not against any monetization, expansion, or accession to another service. Simply, it became difficult for me to follow him, due to a branch of my interests, the service became a burden for me, but just to close it, I see as dishonest for users who use it every day.
UPD. Thank you all for the letters (about 30). The new owner is selected, waiting for an answer from him. If you have not received a letter from me, then, sorry, this is not you. The project promises to develop and certainly will not close tomorrow. The process of moving to the server of the new owner will try to make as little as possible noticeable.
Depending on the decision of the new owner, I will indicate who it is (or not).
