best options for first class upgrades
I am starting a job- and will be traveling almost on a weekend basis. I am looking to enroll in a frequent flyer clubs mostly to be bumped up into first class. I'm based in Orlando, but my destinations are all domestic.
What airlines have the best chance of me getting bumped up once I start to earn "elite status?

Chances of getting upgrades depends on a lot of factors, levels of EARNED elite status being one.
Like others said, you need to spell out more details. Some domestic routes do not even have first class seats. Lots need to be factored in, your routes, choices of airlines, fares of tickets (coach, business...etc). There's no flat out answer to your "simple" question.

Second, please give us more info on which destinations you'll be flying to most often.
Third, I edited your subject line for clarity.
