I know some people who use it (or similar sites like fiverr.com) and like Dotnet Dude says (wait, who ARE you dude?) the people who do the work do it at a super cheap price (with comparable quality). Not saying you can't find someone who does a good job on there, but its a bit of a lottery. You can find good people there who work for next to nothing, and you will be competing with them.
On the flip side, if you do want to find people on sites like this, I've heard the best way to get the quality is to put the work out to a number of people. You assign the same task to say five developers and let them know you have done so. The one who comes through with the goods gets further work. There is an Australian one called Airtasker that you might get more luck with for finding local work. https://www.airtasker.com/tasks/website-content-for-a-small-business-379540/?utm_campaign=TASK%20ALERT%20-%20EMAIL&utm_content=control&utm_medium=email&utm_source=vero&utm_term=Transactional&vero_conv=1046423257 There are some web dev jobs on there and I've seen some higher rates on there. (ie $1000).
