Thanks for the article! Having done freelance for several years, I love the way that the industry is moving. Freelancers are getting paid better than ever before, and with sites like www.workersoncall.com you can get jobs and get paid faster than I’ve seen until now.

The biggest issue I’ve had with freelancing is the amount of time I waste not actually writing but applying for jobs and waiting to hear back, if I hear back at all! I find myself using www.workersoncall.com more and more often because you can see which employers are online and use the instant chat to speak with them in real time!

Nothing new... landscapers, architects, and ad agencies have been competing for clients by doing spec work for decades. It's about time that graphic design got disrupted.

freelancing is not easy job. You have to work at very low price. In these sites mostly those works who are from countries like india, pakistan, bangladesh etc. because their value of money is less than dollar and pounds. It is true that in freelancer.com you will not get high price projects because of competition and high price projects are not available. But in elance price of projects as compare than that of freelancer is high. In my suggestion you have to try elance at least once. For more information about elance you can read its review here http://easyearningbyhome.blogspot.com/

Freelancer has indeed created a platform where you get quality services at amazing low prices. It is a win-win situation for both the freelancer and employer.

I was getting so many android projects on freelancer.com that after a while I developed an unofficial android app for freelancer.com.
