Don't use elance, you have to pay to bid and usually you never get hire for a gig. Instead you might want to try oDesk, I go on there when I have nothing to do

Don't use elance, you have to pay to bid and usually you never get hire for a gig. Instead you might want to try oDesk, I go on there when I have nothing to do and I usually get gigs within hours.
- ciupicri 17y agoI'm no a fan of elance, but at least you can search for jobs without registering, whereas oDesk seems to force me to register.
- nfriedly 17y agoElance is free for the basic level these days. I think you get to bid on 3 jobs per month for free, after that you have to pay (weather your bids are accepted or not). Where you really pay is that elance takes something like 5-10% of whatever you earn for the job. That said, I created an account and scored relatively highly on a few of the tests a while back. I've gotten invited to submit proposals for jobs on a regular basis ever since. (For example, I received 7 invitations last month.) I usually turn down the invitations, as I have plenty of work, but one of my favorite clients found me through elance.
