Experienced freelance writer offering coaching and mentoring to newbie freelancers who want guidance and support. Also a social media manager, I have managed the social media operations for several high-profile websites. I have vast experience dealing with the many issues that can arise in running Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Pinterest accounts, and I am also the co-host of a popular freelance writing podcast.
The great difficulty with bidding sites like that is that, often, it's a race to the bottom. Many people buy based on price alone, so if you want to get a decent income, it's *hard*.
Getting your own clients, rather than working through a bidding site, tends to be a much more reliable way of getting a good income through freelancing and doing more of the work you actually want to do.
