Causes of delay in achieving the milestones of the projects taken from Freelance websites
After having worked on different freelance websites and in different companies; I found some issues which become hurdle in accomplishing the targets of any project:
1: Clients which come on freelance websites do not disclose the complete information about their businesses in the initial requirement phases even someone tried his/her level best to elicit the requirements from them.
2: Clients deliberately or in-deliberately hide the information which becomes on later stages a menace in attaining the milestones.
3: Immature processes of the workers or companies who work on freelance websites also become the cause of delay in delivery of projects on time.
4: Project management issues and Quality assurance team’s overlooking about errors and bugs in the program, is also another reason of failure.
5: Absence of HCI and lack of ergonomics rules make it difficult for a developer to focus on his/her work and in return delay occurs.
6: Very high demands and expectations from the developers and a pressure of unreal deadlines put a huge pressure on developers which in turn appears as an obstacle in hitting targets.
Human anomalies in doing work and other language related factors must be discussed according to the Software engineering rules and practices before going to start the project.
Real deadlines and mature processes must be implemented in the software houses or in the work place of freelancers.

Efficiency in code is good but that must be reasonable.
