Abstract: The popularity and the spread of Web technology has resulted in the growth of the related needs. This has spurred the development and the improvement of the existing system as well as the emergence of new programming languages, software and applications that expanded the initial functions, serving many fields of activity and different industries. Gradually, both individuals, companies and organizations or institutions began using the WWW as a method of communicating information, of promotion or sale of services or products, as an additional method integrated with their main activity. This contributed to the development of the market of web projects. Along with this came the need to manage this type of work, the people and the resources involved. The present paper aims at underlining the importance of acknowledging the necessity of web developers to handle and use project management tools and techniques in order to perform better and to offer greater returns to clients. In this regard, we chose to refer to freelancers in the field of web development as they are one of the newest and most controversial form of employment in this field nowadays.
