| Indispensible | Jun 1, 2010 |
My opinion: Indispensable for two reasons:
1. The BlueBoard - where avoiding one bad payer will cover your subscription
2. The Translators' Directory - where clients go looking for translators.

Try searching for "membership" and you should find your questions answered. I joined recently, and it paid for itself very quickly.

| Channel to go international | Jun 3, 2010 |
Hi Daniela,
In my case, ProZ.com serves as the channel to go international. Before joining this site, my clients were mainly local post-graduate students. After joining this site, I can reach both national and international clients.
Best Wishes
Hipyan
