Upwork

If you are registered with Upwork than surely you are going to earn especially It is an industry which is working in this COVID pandemic. And Upwork gives you the platform to showcase your skills and by completing tasks you can earn the money which you have asked for so so no wrong negotiation as well you do not need to take part in any unwanted marketing and lead generation stuff as its project market place. It's like do fishing in the sea which is full of fishes.

The problem with Upwork is that they make it verrry difficult for freelancers who are new to get hired, because Upwork makes metrics recommendations to clients when they are posting their available jobs. These recommendations are things like hire only "rising stars" or hire only freelancers who have a "90% job success score" - and in order for a freelancer to be included in either of these categories, they have to have a certain number of jobs under their belt which is impossible to do if clients won't hire you because you don't have a certain number of jobs under your belt. Much better results on freelancer.com.

I was a paid eLance member for more than 6 years and then one day I received an email from eLance that they closed my account. It happened to me a few days ago. Elance will not explain *why* the account was closed. The email isn't specific. There was no warning. Elance did not alert me to any problems beforehand, did not give me the chance to correct whatever was wrong. Elance just closed the account.

Six years of membership fees and all the surcharge money eLance received from the jobs that were awarded to me, and then they close accounts without warning and without explanation.

Customer loyalty means nothing to eLance. Stay away from eLance!

I'm a freelancer on Upwork. I have been using Upwork for a little over a year. I love the marketplace for finding work. From small projects to long-term contracts Upwork is a place for freelancers to thrive.

Upwork works!
And this is already a huge issue. Furthermore, they have a support team that is ready to help and solve any problems you may have whether with the platform, clients or payments. Just ask for help. Another advantage is vastity of clients you may find, and work with.

After this, and once the platform provides you with a lot of information about previous works from those clients, and others, you really get to choose if that´s a good fit for you, or not. Follow the rules, and you´ll be able to build a professional path.
Thank you, Upwork.

After working on my portfolio I just applied for a job on upwork and I instantly got the job and it was great working experience i have on upwork. Its easy, secure and reliable source of income for freelancers.

Its safe working over here. Its much better then freelnacer.com because after project competition there is always a risk that money reversal can happen and because of that we are always at loss, we give all the work to them and in the end money belongs to you which seems unfair. Some change defiantly is required in your policy which is unfair towards freelancer who actually work on it. Because of your policy we have lost around 300$. This thing is never traced on elance. Good site to work :)

-- To freelancers

I love Upwork's terms of service. Some freelancers might think it's too uncomfortable while using it. But actually, it's to protect all works and payments there. Highly recommend Upwork to freelancers. You'd better start work on Upwork with your new clients outside. Upwork will be the trustable third party to you.

-- To Clients
There are so many competitors there, though I feel happy to race with them. Clients would meet well-skilled freelancers on Upwork and get great deliveries. And Upwork will be a responsible third party between us. Hope we'd meet together there.

--- FYI, I suggest you study the Upwork policy carefully before beginning your work there.
