I'm in the process of creating a web app.

Nothing too complicated...

It's more of a calculator/"drag and drop" type app that I'm selling as part of my fitness product.

But I've never managed a software project and plan on hiring off odesk.

What are the best ways to not get screwed by a developer?

Do you have any recommendations to weed out the crappy developers quickly?

Thanks
