Upwork

 This platform is formerly known as oDesk, and was recently joined by Elance. Upwork is one of the most prominent freelance sites on the net. It was built with success in mind. The site administration will have individually verified anyone you’ll hire from Upwork. This makes the hiring process much less stressful. It also lets you focus on hiring someone who wants to do the job for you. In a bigger sense, it’s not about finding the right person. It’s about knowing the kind of work you need to get done, since Upwork provides a vast array of people who are experts each in their field.

We used Upwork in the past to hire WordPress theme developers, designers and content writers, and we highly recommend this freelancer marketplace.
