Why better than rentacoder.com
Here, the bid is open that means when a provider bids on a project, bid rate, deadline time, bidding time, bidding comments are visible by the other providers. That’s why it makes competition among the other providers, although it makes some problems with the new providers. Because here some providers make their bid rate higher to make the average rate higher and in the PM he decreases the rate to get the work. But it should be kept in mind that it the buyer don’t check the PM, the buyer will not get your message that you want to do the work with lower bid. So be careful about the PMB.

To improve your cover letter you can see the other cover letters of the providers of the respective projects noted down below the description of the project. There you will get some more themes for writing a cover letter for the project. You can also give personal message to the buyer in the PMB option.

• Respect to the buyer
• About the work of the project
• Payment medium
