Selling their own specialist services to web designers

Web designers are often freelancers or small studios who build and look after sites for local businesses. They buy hosting, tools and outsourced development, and they choose partners who make them look good in front of their clients.

Freelancers usually find work through their network, job platforms and word of mouth, which makes income uneven. A small lead database of your own gives you a steady list of companies to approach when the pipeline runs dry.

The web designers that need their own specialist services are listed publicly. What most freelancers lack is a list they own, with the right fields, that shows who was already contacted.

What freelancers run into with web designers

Outreach tools charge per credit or per seat, which is hard to justify on a freelance budget.

Riftjaw has no credits and a free plan to start, so you can build your first list without a card.

You forget who you emailed last month and risk writing to the same company twice.

Every contact has a status and a history of every mail, so you see at a glance who heard from you.

Web designers find their own names in footers and get many partnership mails.

A short, specific message sent in small batches stands out more than a long pitch.

Freelancers rarely list an email address and use hello@ on their own domain.

Email from domain with hello@ ticked gives you a likely address to test.

Questions people ask

Can I collect web designers from footer credits?

You can gather the sites yourself and paste the page HTML into paste and collect, which turns repeating blocks into rows. Riftjaw does not crawl the web on its own.

Are hello@ addresses for web designers verified?

No. They are likely addresses built from common patterns. Test with a small batch and watch the send log.

How do I get email addresses for web designers in your area?

If your file has an email column, that wins. If it only has websites, tick the prefixes you want, such as hello@, info@, studio@ and design@, and Riftjaw derives addresses from each domain. Derived addresses are good guesses, not verified, so start with small batches.

Is it free to start?

Yes. The Free plan runs the whole pipeline on one list with small campaigns, and you do not need a credit card. Move to Pro when you want more lists, segments and bigger campaigns.
