I wonder, why these websites are as bad as they are. :)
Look:
- Upwork is greedy. 20% freelancer fee for every contract above $500 and then 10%. Yes, it’s my platform of choice, because
it’s fast, easy to use and has less spammers than other platforms.
- Freelancer.com is overloaded with spam and utter bullshit — “I need a developer” titles and extremely vague descriptions
are a norm, not an exception.
- Toptal is maybe good, but I never checked — they pretend to have top 3% freelancers only and I’m not ready to go through
their screening process just yet. Afraid I can loose my self esteem.
- Snag.co is maybe good, but our extremely poor third world country is not supported (and never will be, I guess).
To be continued, haha…
