DoNanza is a new kind of search engine; a search engine for freelance online projects -the kind of money making and exposure getting tasks that you can do from home.

Did you know there are hundreds of thousands of online projects across the Web?

* They require all types of skills and fields of interest (from programming to music, from graphic design to copywriting)
* They offer rewards to those who perform them successfully (from cash to serious professional exposure)
* And they are all waiting for you!

Here on DoNanza we collect all those online projects, and our mission (yes, we choose to accept it) is to expose them all and help YOU find the most relevant online projects.

Each day, we scan the web hunting for new online projects and display them in one single format so you can easily search through hundreds of thousands of projects from countless sites. Within each project, you can see: The compensation offered, the time remaining for completion, whether it´s in bid, contest or other formats and whether in addition to enjoy performing the project it will also buy you your next Bahamas vacation…

All you need to do is to state your skill or field of interest (you could be general and write “design” or be more specific to your skill set and write “Website design”), press the “Search” button, and we will show you all the World Wide Web has to offer.

We believe that each and every person can find online projects relevant to his skills and interests.

Whether you came here to make an honest living or just to challenge yourself in your free hours doing the things you love, you came to the right place.

And for all you freelancers already using a site or two offering online projects – DoNanza is a powerful tool that will bring you every available online project on the Web.

Our vision at DoNanza is to organize all of the world´s online projects into one simple easy to access source.

We believe that the world of employment is radically changing and shifting to what Jeff Howe wrote in a June 2006 Wired magazine article called, Crowdsourcing. We think that Crowdsourcing is relatively straightforward: It´s the online distribution of certain tasks to crowds of experts and enthusiasts.

And from the words of Shane Robison, HP´s chief strategy and technology officer: “Crowd-sourcing is going mainstream and will change the rules of the game forever. Fortune 50 companies will access top talent on a global basis via the Internet, saving millions of dollars in professional services, from occupations as diverse as accountants, advertising experts, attorneys, and engineers…”

From the employers point of view the incentive is obvious – he can tap a wider range of talents than might be present in its own organization. From the providers perspective (as the ones doing the project), they now have a chance to compete for projects that aren´t necessarily geographically close but were published across the world.. And for all of the enthusiasts out there, with a passion for a specific field, never had a chance and platform to prove their talent in, DoNanza is the place for you.

At DoNanza we put our money where our mouth is. We believe in all of you, and so many aspects of the development of DoNanza were published as online projects and were executed by the community. Aspects like developing the site´s UI, developing great deal of the engine itself, finding the different platforms publishing jobs, indexing the data, evaluating the search engine algorithm, QA and many more were published as online projects and were completed by the community. We want to thank all of you.
