Freelancing Websites to Avoid Like the Plague
Getting started as a freelancer is hard. There’s no one-size-fits-all system for making it work, and a lot of the time you can end up floundering around on all the freelancing websites trying to compete with thousands of other freelancers for a job that pays pennies.
These websites can seem like a good bet in the early days because they have clients that are ready and waiting. You don’t have to make too much of an effort to go out and find clients on your own. Instead, you can just scroll through page after page of potential projects and apply to the ones that look like a good fit.
Sounds a bit dreamy, right? Well, think again…

What Do You Mean By “Freelancing Websites”?
When I say freelancing websites here, I’m referring to bid sites like Upwork, PeoplePerHour, Freelancer.com and any other platform that allows freelancers to pitch against each other for a job.
They are often a race to the bottom as the competition can get really fierce.
