What is the best place to find freelance designers?

99designs.com logotournament.com upwork.com elance.com fiverr.com

I find that sites like Elance, Upwork, 99designs, etc. don't offer high quality designers.

IMO, the best place to find high quality designers are Dribbble: https://dribbble.com/

You can also consider using a service like Crew: https://crew.co/. They hand-select designers and work with you throughout the process, and I've heard good things.

I have hired multiple times from Fiverr, Freelancer and Guru.

NOTHING CAN GUARANTEE A GOOD RESOURCE ! You have to vett couple resources and find the right person who
- Can understand your thought process
- Can communicate with you easily
- Have done similar work before
- Have some reviews against him..

What I generally do
- I give a small gig to see how much we good is the communication and understanding
- Ask questions to the reviewers (both positive an negative) to share some more insight into the engagement
- Create milestones and check rough cuts frequently in the process of development
- Creative writing and design works is very different. You need a person whom you can connect with..

I think you need to think about the things to look for in a good designer first.

Different marketplaces are for different people. You need to know at which level you are, what are your goals.

Hunting the right designer/company for your UI/UX design project needs, itself is a big task as there are too many to select from. You need the check their proven track records for delivering really high quality services to a wide range of industries and organizations.

WebClues Infotech is leading user experience design company that serves global clients and can be your perfect partner in setting up a distinct KPI for you as per as UI designing, user research and UX process goes.
