Odesk-Changing How the World Works

The first site that I would like to recommend is Odesk.  I have learned about this when I was reading a forum.  There was this girl who has been working in Odesk since 2009 and apparently she is getting her income from this site.

What is Odesk?  Odesk acts as a medium for business or company owners and contractors.  If a business owner wants to outsource some of his people with competitive rates, he will go to Odesk.  While a contractor who has skills in writing, marketing, administrative works, web design, programming, engineering, customer service and the likes can find job here in Odesk.  Click this to know how Odesk works ---->>  How Odesk Works?

How can you earn in Odesk?  Of course, in order to earn in Odesk you should register first, complete your profile/resume, take exams and apply for jobs.

Registration:

Creation of Account
1.  You want to be hired and earn money so you sign up as Freelance Contractor.
2.  Complete the necessary details needed

Profile/Resume 
    Fill up your resume - Skills, Certifications, Employment Histories, Education and Other Experiences
    For the Contractor's Profile, you need to write your hourly rate.  I know you will be very excited to input high hourly rate, however in Odesk there are some instances that employers would ask applicants to bid for a job.  I suggest you input $1.5 to $3 an hour.  Once you gain good feedbacks from your previous buyers you could increase your rate eventually.
 
Exams
    Be sure to take the Odesk Readiness Exam, your profile would not be completed if you do not take this.  There are also free examinations that would prove your skills.
    For Odesk Readiness Exam, be sure to watch the webinars and read more about Odesk on their website.  This is pretty easy exam.



Job Application
    Now, you are ready to look for a job.  There are lots of jobs here that are related to internet marketing, SEO (Search Engine Optimization), Social Media Marketing and the likes.  I am not an expert here but I would write a different article about this so that you could also apply for jobs related to this.
