Hi, I am new to odesk and looking for any data entry or web designing projects, I have tried many times with no results.

Welcome to the network.
Just looking at your profile, I see several possible issues:
* You state creative webdesigner in your title, but there in nothing about it in your profile - or portfolio
* You only list MS Office as your skill
* But at the same time your relevant tests scores are fairly low
So please work on improving your profile to better showcase your skills - and make sure the coverletters you submit when applying are always custom and crealy say to the Buyer why you are the best fit for this particular project.
Good luck,
Olga

Hello,
I am right there with you. I too am in dire search of more income. Honestly, this site is almost as hard to get hired on as in the “Real World”.
Thanks for your time,
Kandi Ranson
