There are many websites that offer to connect clients with a freelancer. These services often have many freelancers who bid on particular projects that clients post. Other services simply post projects and allow freelancers to submit a resume and samples of previous work. A freelancer often can find projects through word of mouth, from a former employer, or from classified ads in print as well as on the web.

I use Elance and Getafreelancer.com both are good if you are thinking about freelancing work. All the work completed by me on both sites are related to wordpress.

GetAFreelancer.com gets a steady flow of WP projects for those looking.

In my early days I found using multiple sites like these the best way to get a steady flow of work.

I used eLance for quite a bit. It’s pretty nice. Sure it’s not the best thing if you want to support yourself from that but it’s great as an additional source of income.

I think it is worth mentioning that producing free themes to list on the theme directory, can eventually turn into income opportunities.

I’ve put out a couple of themes and try to provide all kinds of free assistance to users. But from time to time when big theme overhauls are requested I provide a budget, and more often than not people are happy to pay for theme customization or new theme design.

I’d say 99% of the advice I provide is free, but the small fraction that turns into paying gigs helps out! I’m guessing others have had similar experiences.

And the wp-pro mailing list.

I find also if you are an active member of the community, and are helping people in places like forums and on twitter, then your name gets recognized as a go-to person.

In his interview with WPTavern Matt included the hosting companies in the “making money of WP” group. That was quite absurd in my opinion.

Personally I have no interest in doing consulting. Work for money? how absurd and timeconsuming.
