Ask HN: How to actually start freelancing?

Hi HN,

I'm a self employed guy living in Paris. I know how to code (mostly websites), and I'm pretty good a conversion optimisation (landing pages, AB testing, etc.)

After reading the thread "Ask HN: How much do you earn through software freelancing?" [0], I would like to givre freelancing a try. But I don't know how to get started.

First: what should I freelance in? Build website? Give CRO advice? Run A/B tests?

Then: how to actually find clients? Is networking the main option? Where should I go to network?

Any advice on this would be really helpful. Thanks!
