Yes Jan 25, 2019

But it is rarely used. Mostly potential clients email me for a quote, also using the email on the webside.

Yes Jan 25, 2019

My website has a contact page and an upload page, but the second one is rarely used by potential clients as they seem to prefer contacting me by email. For a while, a group of inconsiderate people used to annoy me asking for fake quotes in languages I don’t master…

I used to Jan 25, 2019

I no longer maintain a website. Strangely, more people contacted me via Facebook, LinkedIn and mostly Proz.com. Nobody ever used my form.

Yes, but rarely used Jan 25, 2019

I do have a web site, but the contact form is rarely used by potential clients. E-mail contact is the usual method, and some people contact me via Proz.com.
