I've signed up with some of the freelance sites for work and I've secured some projects but would like to win more.
I always make sure I apply for work that I'm qualified for and that I have the relevant experience for but for some reason I keep missing out.
I'm wondering if it is the way I'm pitching myself and wanted to know if anyone has any advice?

I could not say which is the best way. But, I have found odesk to be a good way to search for work opportunities. I have joined the program some time ago, and I am quite impressed with the presentations there at the site. You might want to take a look at it.

hi, i've joined the site few weeks back and completed 3 tests from it. I have bidded more than 10 projects but nothing turns my way. How long will it take to win a bid and is there any other good method to win a bid. Kindly share with me.

I don't know what the issue is, but I have tried getting freelance work also, and I have had no luck either. I think my issue was that I didn't get my profile and resume together like I needed to. I just didn't take enough time to do all the things that were needed to make me look like a good qualified worker to do their jobs.
Have you taken tests and given them examples of your work? That maybe what you need to do in order to get a good job or several good jobs to do. I wish you the best!
