Advice from a seasoned freelancer: Start out bidding pretty low, until you get a few jobs under your belt. Then bid your rate. Don’t worry about people from India bidding $4.00/hr on jobs. You don’t want to work with the people who will hire them. They are used to treating people like they are worth $4.00 and hour. Communicate. Set realistic deadlines and meet them. Don’t be afraid to say NO. There are some very difficult people to work with out there. Do not audition for work; they are trying to get you to do something for free. Good luck! You can make a decent amount, even a living, as a freelancer.
