Online jobs – how to bid

If you are wondering about starting online jobs, you have to learn some basic things about starting doing online work. The first thing to do is to get yourself registered with a freelancing website. Make sure that you do not pay a single penny for this registration. The registration process is totally free. So if a website demands you to pay for the registration, it is a spam. So this is a useful tip for selecting a valid and trustworthy freelancing website. There are many websites who offer online jobs and you can easily find one for you by searching for online jobs in a search engine. It will take some time to understand the mechanism with which a freelancing website operates but once you start to show interest in it and regularly visit it, you will get familiar to it. You will find different types of jobs on a freelancing website, both technical and non technical. So even if you are not a computer professional, you can work online and earn good money.

Bidding for a project is the most important aspect of getting an online job while you are new in the field. This is because those who place projects on the website will prefer those bidders who have gained good ratings on the website. So when you are new and are bidding for your first project, you have to attract the buyer as he/she would prefer those who have good rating against their names. You cannot convince the buyer with the "quality" of work as there would be no evidence of it with you. Your rating on the website represents the quality and timeliness of your work. It shows how you much you are dedicated to you work so as you start with a zero rating, it is important that you convince the buyer with the "quantity" of bid. Meaning that, you have to place the lowest bid in order to obtain the project. I know it is not an easy ask, but it is important to get started. Once your rating gets good, then you can bid on grounds of quality instead of quantity.

If you are wondering how the system of rating works then let me explain this. While doing your online jobs, whenever you complete a project given to you by a buyer, the buyer the result of project and rates your work so if you are able to perform the task up to its merits, the buyer will give you the maximum rating and in this way your rating will improve each time you perform a task. When your rating crosses the mark of "ten", this is the time when buyers will easily get attracted towards your bid and would prefer you over the others if your bid is comprisable.

So each time you make a bid, see the average bid and then make a bid according to it. do not make a comparatively high or low bid because in both cases the buyer will not get attracted to your bid.
