I just wanted to add my 2 cents to ESWO. They are not paying it seems. I was supposed to receive payment on March 15 and to date (MArch 18) I have received no payment and nothing from the company saying why. I have put in support tickets and they are left unanswered though they say it takes up to 48 hours. So, I don’t think this is a good place to work for – I have $120 waiting to be paid for work that I did.

Thanks!

I would not recommend Writerlance. The company owes me $675 for work completed in the summer of 2007. They have ignored multiple attempts by me to receive payment. Someone who said he was the new owner basically told me it wasn’t his problem because he was ripped off by the previous owner. Avoid these guys!

Hi, this is Rod Smith, from Rent A Coder (www.rentacoder.com).

Rent A Coder is another freelance site that you can add to the list. There are a variety of projects so you can sign up and bid on projects for writing or try out something else (graphics, software design, website creation, etc).

RAC offers escrow and dispute resolution as a protection to both buyers and sellers, just in case things don’t go as planned.

If you have any questions about the site/service let me know.

Hi there,

I would recommend adding a new marketplace specifically for Internet Marketing and related services, including copywriting: http://www.esalesguru.com

Hi Audrey,

I also signed up with Bizreef and so far have no complaints. I am in negotiations for one large project so we’ll see how things go. As far as free websites go I really like this one. I agree that it is hard to get used to but I think that’s because we are all so familiar with Elance that it can be hard to get used to anything else.

I already used BizReef site, I listed my service for free, and in some days I got an order form a Canadian guy.
In BizReef you can offer bids on posted projects or list your service and get orders.
It took we a while to get used to the site GUI, but after you get used it is very logical. When I needed the support I got response in 3-4 hours.
At the end they took commission from the project price.
