Does anyone know how hard it is to get any of the jobs on Elance. I hear it is a good place to go for jobs, but I just wonder about the competition.

shortly, FreelancerStore.com will be up with competitive rates and should be a little easier to get winning bids.

I have tried getting jobs on a few sites, but never got the winning bid.
You can only get good amount of jobs if you have a unique or rare skill.
Otherwise, you'll be competing with 20-30 people per job, so your chances to get accepted are really poor.

I haven't spent much time checking out elance yet.

If you're interested in selling written articles, have you tried Constant Content? I've had some sales at that site.

You set your own prices for single use, unique rights or complete rights. There's a breakdown on the site of how those are defined.

Also there's an option for accepting offers for articles, too. I think you can go there and get examples of prices and lengths, etc.

Sorry Xeric, I guess I'm so used to Googling, I forgot. :o

Here's the link to Constant Content: Constant Content - Article Search Purchase Articles

The site has changed in the last few months, so it looks different now.
