Craigslist and Odesk | Apply for an Online Job!

Apply for a job online, transact directly with clients, all for free! Craigslist is one of the sites you should go to if you're looking for an online job that can pay you by the hour. It's similar to GetAFreelancer, however, Craigslist is better because it's free AND you work direct for your client. That is, you get paid exactly the amount that you talked with your client

Patience and persistence. It may require a bit of patience and persistence to find the job that suits you, but it will be worth the wait.

Safety and risks. Of course, you will have to set up measures that will ensure that you will get paid, as you are directly dealing with the clients yourself. Research about the company you are planning to work with. Talk with the clients that you will find and arrange something that will be both beneficial and safe for both of you.

Get paid directly. Unlike in Odesk, or other similar websites, there will be no middleman in Craigslist (unless of course, if the work advertised there is subcontracted), so no one who will share the revenue off your hard work. Visit Craigslist here. Anyway, for additional resource, I've found this great article containing tips on making the most out of Craigslist here. Thought you might want to check it out.

ODESK
Odesk is similar to Craigslist. The thing is that Odesk will serve as the medium for the transactions between you and the clients. Odesk will get a small percentage from the payment of the clients, so will earn smaller. In return, you are given security that you will really be paid. I would say that Odesk is less risky than Craigslist, while Craigslist can be more risky, but with the right care you can earn more since your clients will be direct.
