Translation Freelance
Freelance writing bidding sites can provide a good entry to freelance writing. It's a quick way to find clients who need a freelancer, and the projects generally have far less competition than writing jobs listed on Craigslist and sites that compile freelance writing jobs. Some bidding sites require a paid membership fee that is paid either monthly or yearly. Others have free bidding but charge a higher commission on the projects that are completed.
Elance
Elance is possibly the best-known freelance bidding site, with thousands of projects added every day. The Writing and Translation category is one of the largest, with hundreds of projects available at any given time. The projects are available in a number of subcategories such as ghost writing and copywriting. The site charges monthly fees for membership and additional fees if more than a few bids are used. The commission is 8.75 percent for projects in the Writing and Translation category.
RentaCoder
RentaCoder is a large bidding site that is mainly devoted to programming. But, there are many categories available to Web writers. The site has no membership fees and does not give members a maximum number of bids. Writers sign up for the site and post their resume and their applicable skills.
