Newly shelved: a free Taglish reference desk for Filipino freelancers

Discovered this issue: PinoyFreelance.PH, a resource site from the Philippines, first seen in 2026. It speaks in Taglish and asks nothing of the reader. No paywall, no hidden fees. The edit is practical. Guides move through getting started, finding clients, setting rates and receiving payments, with local detail such as BIR rules and Philippine payment platforms. On the shelf beside them: a rate calculator in PHP and USD, and templates for contracts, proposals and invoices. Honest platform reviews sit nearby. A quieter section is kept for buyers. Business owners, local or international, will find a hiring guide for working with Filipino freelancers. The site was made by Norman Galanza.
