I noticed one interesting paradox on the first page of this site. It claims that customers might get free translations and that same time it states that being a member of this site earns you good money. Well well well...

Translators Town www.translatorstown.com
Johan Ericsson reports: I have just found a new website on Google and got a job very quickly, have a look at their website (www.translatorstown.com), it is free to register and bid, they are new though but I never got a job from the older ones like translatorsbase or aquarius.net.

TranslationDirectory Translation Directory
The Translation Directory has yet another business model, you only pay once to buy a database of translation agencies. However, you pay a lot more and then you will have the added cost to buying updates. The site has other good tools you can use such as black lists etc. Nevertheless, you can buy agency addresses and get a years membership at other job sites much cheaper.
