I’m a freelancer and I’ve looked at elance, but I would never use it. As a writer, there is too much competition with off-shore contractors, and I won’t work for sub-par rates. For example, I won’t write a 500 word article for $2 — and that’s the level of competition for writing (and editing) jobs on elance. Even with other jobs there (editing, web design, webmastering), the rates are very sub-par because of the off-shore competition.

There are plenty of other sites freelancers can sign up on and have clients find them. Though, I”m signed up on a couple and I’ve never been contacted, so…think twice before taking the time to sign up for one of those sites.

Craigslist is good, though it’s necessary to respond within hours of a job being posted.

What’s best, though, is to track down clients proactively. This is a lesson I’ve been learning, as being reactive to ads in this economy only sets me up against 100s of other respondees.
