Fiverr and Upwork teamed up this time (no beef) and they published an article on Yahoo where ‘transparency’ was the word of the day. They showed us valuable metrics, and now we can bank on them!
1 — Writers, Copywriters, and Ghostwriters.
That sounds like good news! If you are already writing here on Medium, what’s stopping you from making some extra money online by freelancing? Nothing to lose, and everything to gain.
What some freelancers have charged: 1045$ per piece. Earning range: 75$ to 1000$.
2 — SEO Content optimization.
Yes, some companies and creators need their content revamped and turned into SEO-friendly articles and copys. Do you have the skills? Then jump in, because it’s one of the most demanded skills on these platforms.
Earning range: 135$ to 995$.
3 — WordPress designer/ specialist.
Is web design your thing and do you happen to have some experience with WordPress? Companies are paying good money to have a professional handling the tech side of the business.
Earning range: 395$ to 4095$.
4 — Video Editing.
Depending on the work and the difficulty of it, you can earn more than a month’s salary if your video editing skills are something that clients look for. Even a small project can leave you with an extra 100$ to your name.
Earning range: 100$ to 3200$.
5 — Social Media account manager.
This is a perfect gig in case you’re a beginner and it’s one of your first freelancing gigs. It’s in high demand (we live in the SM world) and you can get paid 25$ an hour easily when doing a good job of course.
Earning range: 25$ to 125$.
6 — Have a skill that others may want to learn? Teaching and online tutoring.
Old-school teaching is not yet a thing of the past, but virtual learning and tutors are all the rage now and the trend won’t be going away ever again (unless we somehow get rid of the internet…).
Earning range: 5$ to 100$ per class.
7 — Mobile development.
This one is very technical and you do have to know what you’re doing. It’s not a beginner's job, but if you know some of it or all of it, create your gig with the layers of the service you can offer and start making $$$.
It’s by far one of the highest-paying skills.
Earning range: 200$ to 3000$.
8 — UI Designer.
Have some UI skills under your belt? Make the most of your creative and technical side and be prepared to earn more than most freelancers out there for a single commission.
Earning range: 185$ to 6300$.
