You are looking to pick up freelance jobs and in your search you come across Upwork, a platform where freelancers bid on freelance jobs. You sign up and then you realize that there is a fee if you really want to get noticed, but you're not sure if its worth it. I am here to talk to you today about whether or not Upwork is a good investment of your time and energy.
The good
• Clients come to you
• The stream is never ending
• No confusion
The bad
• You have to pay to bid
• Upwork takes 20% of your earnings
• Your visibility is lowered if you are not rated as a top freelancer
• The competition is higher
• Most clients want a lot for a little
