Best freelancing sites.

Ever since the new algorithm changed, the value of freelancing sites have changed. Sites like: Hubpages, Associated Content, Bright Hub, Demand Studios, E-how, and much, much more have become less effective. In fact, some of these sites have undergone changes to purge their system of mediocre articles to prevent the site from being on Google's black list. Other article farm sites like EZinearticles, daily articles, etc. have found themselves on Google's black list.

I have been searching the web and gaining the opinions of other freelancers to find out what sites are still good to work with. Here is a list of sites that I think still have potential as long as you're willing to put in some hard work.

Google's new Panda algorithm change.

Since Google has implemented their new algorithm change code named "Panda," many articles sites have lost a substantial amount of page views. Many articles were simply keyword stuffed with no real content or original information. In fact, before the algorithm change, you could read the exact same article on hundreds of different websites. Once the algorithm change took place, high PR sites like associated constant, suit 101, squidoo, and others lost many page views. Of course, this was because a lot of articles were low quality in terms of content and grammar.
