How long does it take?
Transfers to PayPal accounts are instantaneous. Once the money is in your PayPal account it takes a few days to process a transfer to your local bank account or receive a check.

How does PayPal compare to Moneybookers, Payoneer, etc.?
Where it is supported, PayPal is usually an inexpensive way to transfer money to your bank account. Fees and services vary widely by country, so make sure PayPal provides you with the services you need and check PayPal withdrawal fees before you withdraw. Wire transfer is expensive for small withdrawals, but it is immediate.

I checked my oDesk referrals and realized that a good number of people signed up using my referral code. However, not that many are getting work. Here are some tips on how to make money from oDesk:

After logging into your account, go to the top right portion of the screen and you will see your name. Immediately below your name, you will find two data fields (one with a drop down field) and a yellow button with the word "go" in it.

2. In the second field, write the job you are looking for (I typed "data entry" in the sample photo below).
3. Click on the "go" button.
4. You will be led to all the job listing appropriate for your chosen keyword.
5. Click the job vacancy that you are interested in and apply
6. Repeat the process and change the keyword that you will enter, depending on the job that you are looking for.
