Key quotes:

• "As a freelancer, you could riff of these with modified questions like: If they respond with testimonial-worthy content, email them back with a thank-you and ask if they’d be okay with you sharing their feedback on your website."
• "You could ease in with an email that asks how the project you delivered is performing, and when they respond that everything’s going well, you can then follow up with an email like this: “Hey [client], I’m so glad you’re getting good results! Finally, it suggests what the testimonial could contain: “your experience working with me” and “those results.” If you know the client is more private and wouldn’t be comfortable sharing their results, keep it to something more general like their experience working with you, or how you helped them overcome a specific hurdle."
• "If your client offers a service that you’ve actually used, you could always suggest a testimonial swap."
• "Then, you can follow up with an email like: “Hey [client]! When your client does send a testimonial, treat it like a gift."

• "Here are some great examples of web designers who have created simple, yet effective logos."
• "You will want to include the services you provide somewhere on your website portfolio in a prominent location such as the home page."
