Bid on unique jobs.
2) Bid on jobs with a smaller amount of bids.
3) Bid on projects over the weekend. Most freelancers do not bid over the weekends. This is a chance to post a bid that the buyer will see first.
4) Narrow down jobs by deadline. Many freelancers do not bid on new projects with a short deadline because they are too busy.
5) Evaluate jobs with high bids. Perhaps, within reason, you can
post a lower bid without sacrificing quality and your reputation.
