Re: Question about eLance

I have been on elance for about 18 months. In that time I have seen all work
go to people who charge $10 to $20 an hour. Since you can only get my intern
for those rates with no quality or usability work on the docs, we have not
gotten any business out of it.

Unless you are willing to sell your time for that amount, it does not pay
off to purchase a membership. if you are looking at it as something to do to
fill otherwise empty hours... Then it may be worth it.

tempted
