Guru.com Members See Increase in Connections after Launch of New Freelancer Search New Freelancer Search enables employers to find the professional contractor they need quickly and easily. Pittsburgh, PA - April 24, 2008 - Guru.com, the world's largest online marketplace for freelance talent, launched a new Freelancer Search providing Employers with the ability to quickly search through more than 100,000 active freelancer profiles, and use selected criteria to find the ones that perfectly match their needs. With the new search, businesses can search for Freelancers by their Profiles, Work Samples, or by projects that have been completed through Guru.com. This variety of choices gives Employers a comprehensive view and enables them to find the best Freelancers for their projects. Since the launch of the new search on February 14th, Guru Freelancers have enjoyed both a rise in direct contact from Employers as well as money received. The dollar amount of transactions between Employers and Freelancers has increased more than 20% from January 2008 to March 2008. "New search is indeed giving us increased demand through direct communication and/or messages. Interestingly we are getting good initial communication from clients looking to award bigger projects," said Abhishek Vinod Singh, Co-Founder and Director of DByDx Software Pvt. Ltd. The Freelancer Search is the latest platform upgrade to help Employers and Freelancers make connections as easily and quickly as possible. It is just one of the many planned upgrades for the site this year including new Project Management tools and a Community center.
