Almost 200 jobs on oDesk! Ask me anything!

I am willing to help anyone who wants to get a leg up on the largest freelacing portal on the net!
Ask away!

 

Can u tell me in detail about content creation from Odesk?

 

Content creation for websites?? Not really my specialty.
I meant anyone who needs help creating a profile and finding work on oDesk.

 

On freelancing websites which are still relatively new, should you "attack" the popular types of "requests", or try to hit a niche? This is more targeted towards things like Fiverr.

 

Always best to create your niche- something that your really good at.
Plus avoid Fiverr- not worth the time- unless $4 a gig makes you happy.

 

what are the majority of those 200 jobs you've done? graphics?

 

Hi, i am interested to put my foot in odesk as i am a data entry expert i can do all types of data entry work can you help me finding job there

 

Data Entry is like unskilled labor- almost everyone can do it. It will be almost impossible for a new person to get a foot in that way.

 

Yes I am a graphics designer. All Graphics.

 

Nice, I just checked out your site. Can you pm me your odesk profile? I might have a project for you.

 

I would like to know how you worked to grow your profile, by "starting from zero" then scaling up... did you offer jobs at a very low rate to start OR did you set your pinpoint price since the beginning? Thanks.

 

First few jobs I did at a very low rate such $4-$5/hr. After I gathered a few positive feedbacks I steadily upped the rate.
