Streamlined process: Dribbble simplifies the hunt for skilled designers.
Hey there! Let's chat about the updates at Dribbble HQ 🤘
This community has always been a powerhouse, filled with tens of millions of users, including some of the world's top designers, and more than 100 million annual visitors. People come here for inspiration, discussions, showing off skills, and finding the perfect designer. It's all about human connections!
Now, let's dive into some exciting news:
1) No more barriers in communication 💬
Our previous policy restricted messaging between users, but we've decided to knock down those walls. Now, every user can reach out to any other user, whether it's for project discussions, idea-sharing, or constructive feedback.
2) Finding designers is a snap 🔍
Previously, searching for designers was a paid feature. But now, everyone can surf our designer database to find the right talent. In the upcoming months, we'll make it super easy for users to locate and hire designers, so stay tuned!
We know some users are already willing to pay for these features, but these changes are about fostering connections rather than maintaining paywalls. After all, we understand many designers come to Dribbble to connect with clients, so we want to keep the leads flowing!
But wait, there's more!
3) Amplifying Job Opportunities 📣
We're launching features to help clients promote their design roles or projects and grab designers' attention. You'll spot some highlighted listings on our job board and direct messages in your inbox. These are clients who are particularly eager to find the right designer and have paid extra for visibility.
This is Dribbble Pro, a service that boosts users' search rankings, making them more discoverable and helping them generate more leads. Pro users also get additional perks to highlight their work to potential clients.
4) Weekly Warm-up is back! 🎨
We're reviving our popular Weekly Warm-up feature! Every Monday, we'll issue a new design challenge, and we want to see you bring your A-game. This is all about fostering creativity, so keep an eye out for our prompts on Dribbble, Instagram, X, and Facebook starting June 3rd.
That's it for now, but watch this space – we've got plenty more up our sleeve! 🤘

In the new updates at Dribbble HQ, connections between users will be easier as the restrictions on messaging have been lifted, allowing for more open discussions about projects and ideas, thereby enhancing the overall lifestyle experience. Additionally, technology plays a significant role in these changes as it aims to simplify the process of finding designers, with the remodeling of the search mechanism to become free and user-friendly, ultimately making it easier for users to hire the perfect designer.
