Tips to be successful on ODESK

Here are short tips for freelancers and also for clients about the general scope of ODESK.
1.If you are a new freelancer on Odesk,please be CAREFUL of the fake client covered spammers by applying ONLY on the jobs with verified payment systems.(If you start working for non verified clients,there is no guarantee for your payment after you completed the task)
2.For a fixed job,you should put upfront payment in order to be more confidential for your task.(I know that many clients don't like,but for the sake of freelancer,this should be done)
3.Since Odesk have its own terms and conditions,try to write a standard well written proposal.
4.Please don't repeat the same proposal for all jobs that you will apply otherwise Odesk team will ban your account after a while.I remeber a time that I have continually repeated one proposal for any jobs that I apply,then they warned me to stop writing like that.
5.If you start working hourly job,please install to your computer a very essential tool named 'ODESK TEAM TRACKER.'This tool is the only tool that 100% guarantee your payment.
6.Some clients ask you to click a link that directly moves you to their domain.Please be aware that if you repeatedly make such thing on odesk,you will most likely be exposed to phishing and account crackers so don't click on that.If it is very crucial,copy the link and paste it to a new widows and continue working.
7.You have to know that there is no 'get rich quick' motto in odesk so that it takes time to earn more money.So don't lose hope and be patient
If you apply the above points,you will definitely seer a great progress in your work platforms.
