How to post a project on Belancer and get proposals (free).

To post a project, choose Post a project and follow five steps: Basics, Scope, Type & budget, Add-ons and Review. Then choose Post project. Posting is free. Right after posting, Belancer shows freelancers matched to your project so you can invite them in one tap, and proposals start arriving.

Before you start

• A Belancer account. Clients don't need the ID check.
• If you hire for a company, switch Acting as to the company first.
• Have ready: what you need done, any files, your budget and when you need it.

Steps

1Basics

Choose Post as: Personal or your Company. Type a sentence in Describe it in a sentence and choose Draft with AI to get a suggested title and story, or write your own. Add a Project title (5 to 80 characters), Category, Subcategory and optional Service type.

2Scope

Write the Project story (at least 80 characters): the goal, what you'll provide, what you expect delivered, and how you'll judge success. Add Skills needed (up to 10), Files (up to 5, 25 MB each) and up to 5 Questions for freelancers.

3Type & budget

Pick a Project type:

• Fixed price: choose a Budget range preset or Custom minimum and maximum. Paid by milestone.
• Hourly: set the hourly rate range, Estimated total hours and a Weekly hour limit ("You never pay for more than this").
• Remote · Monthly: monthly budget, hours per week, working time zone, overlap, start date and notice period.

4Add-ons (optional)

Add-ons help you get better proposals: Featured, Urgent, NDA, IP assignment, Sealed, Private (invite only) and Belancer Recruiter. Each shows its price in your currency, or Coming soon if it isn't open yet.

5Review and post

Check everything and use Edit on any section. Choose Post project (or Pay … and post if you chose paid add-ons).

What happens next

You see Your project is live (or Your project is in review for a quick check). Belancer shows matched freelancers and gigs labelled Matched by Belancer, with "Why this match". Choose Invite on anyone you like, add an Invite message, then See proposals as they arrive. See invite freelancers.

Troubleshooting

• "Switch to your company in the account menu first." To post as a company, change Acting as.
• "Your role can't post projects." Ask your company owner or admin to change your role.
• Story too short. Add details: deliverables, examples, deadline.
• A file wasn't added. Use JPG, PNG, WEBP, PDF, MP4 or MKV within the size limit.
• "Belancer asked for changes before this goes live." Open the project, read the reason, fix and resend with Fix and resend.
• Contact details removed. Phone numbers, emails and outside links aren't allowed in projects.

Good to know

• Not sure how to hire or what it should cost? Choose Let Belancer manage it and a project manager runs it for you. See managed projects.
• Drafts save automatically and appear under My projects › Drafts.
• Type can't change after proposals arrive, so pick carefully.

Tip: The best project stories answer three questions: what's the goal, what does "done" look like, and what's the deadline.

Note: Proposal credits are paid by freelancers, not by you. You never pay to receive proposals.
