It has been several years since I worked with elance. When I did, I found that I was not able to compete on price. Like any other networking medium, I think you need to "work it" and build up your rep, other wise you are just another unknown bidding on a job without a local touch or "street cred." Of course, as you all know, I havn't put the effort into Hidden Tech to see any business even in my own back yard so it really is what you put into it. ;) Steve Wills Open Source Technologist.
