April 15th, 2008 at 5:46 pm
I didn’t see Odesk in your list. Why? I have been a buyer at Odesk for quite sometime now. My experience is that most providers are generally honest but there are a few crooked freelancers out there. You just have to be very careful with some freelancers.
April 15th, 2008 at 7:41 pm
Well nobody’s perfect and Internet is too large to know what’s inside it.. Thanks for letting me know. I will add Odesk later.

You should not have included Scriplance.com. Its a third rate Freelance site and cheats Freelance Service Providers by denying payment withdrawal requests for no reason. A Freelancer works hard in order to get paid through Escrow, but these arseholes deny Escrow payment withdrawal requests without specifying a reason. I think they are in deep shit.
I know as i have been through this harassment and so have my friends.
Aspiring Freelancers Beware of Scriptlance.
You will get paid by the Buyer – but you wont receive payment from Scriptlance as they are using it for their own needs – dont know what – maybe drug deals
June 29th, 2009 at 9:23 am
Nice list and growing everyday- I think it’s not the number of projects posted everyday that counts- But how many projects get awarded with money paid to service providers that actually counts. I have been with this website, http://www.ivoireconsultancy.org and 1 out of 2 projects get awarded within 20 days- This is a good figure.
You also have access to Buyer history and money spent by each of them. You know if you have to bid or not- Compared with other sites who give little if no information on Buyers.
Thanks again.
August 12th, 2009 at 6:13 pm
Have you tried http://www.freelance-jobs-now.com/ it has a lot of fresh projects and you can always find something relevant to your area of expertise.

February 18th, 2011 at 12:24 am

Working as a freelancer is so much better than being employed.
I do all my work from home on http://www.iAmAnArtist.com as they seem to have the fairest payment.
As a flash programmer you can also earn money by developing flash games and publishing those on various networks.

great post. however http://www.lancerspace.com works for me and my company … better than many listed above.
October 29th, 2011 at 5:06 am
Isn’t it a wonderful idea to give comparison of freelancing sites
Criteria :
Spyware installed y/n?
Average salary of freelancer on that site?
time of acceptance of new freelancer ?
Buyers info graphics provided y/n?
Jobs spamming are controlled by payment or micro payment ?
major currency earned by freelancer 3$,5$,..?
Fake protection system ??
Most fake freelancer project posted by country ?
Most fake freelancer by country ?
Project Valued more then 1000$ / 5000$..
Does freelancer site allow to ask question before setting up deal with buyer?
Any provision of terms and conditions setup?
Just think how much this information is useful to others when we have a unbiased information?
November 18th, 2011 at 2:49 am
I’m totally surprised on seeing huge list. But there are many sites which offers writing jobs like http://www.3to30.com/, freelance switch, freelance folder. I am using above list for doing freelancing jobs. Apart from this I use q&a sites, forum sites for earning.

February 8th, 2012 at 4:11 pm
I was actually just over at SEO research labs before I read this post. Awesome stuff! You seem to make good recommendations so I’ll have to check out the ones on this list that I don’t know.
February 13th, 2012 at 4:39 am
sorry if my question sounds really stupid. But, is doing freelance work through the site as you publish it, will bring about the dollar?

These are great sites. I am browsing freelance.com and find it very helpful when it comes to project based jobs. Let me know if you update the list!
April 19th, 2012 at 3:29 am
Excellent listing, you rightly say it is better to register on ‘known sites’, however how will people ‘know’ unless the list is up to date?
An excellent site based in Australia is:http://cashgigs.net
which has free registration for all Freelancers, site enabled jobs to be posted for up to 100$, if freelancer wishes to adjust this, they just have to ask; has live assistance so you can speak to the admin directly!
Cashgigs.net is encouraging good Web design/Graphics/SEO and other experts.
