My own experiences with eLance haven't been great, but I'm sure for some people it's worked out. It's best to work with local talent, even if it's going to be more expensive. I'm guessing trekdek hasn't worked out since if it were going to launch any time in the near future, a coming soon page of some sort would be in place of the GoDaddy landing page. But that's ok - I've done many things which haven't worked out as well. You should regroup and try again, you will find you have learned a ton from the mistakes you've made in the past.
