Freelance Websites to start as a beginner web developer
Truelancer
Truelancer is truly the best website to start freelancing as a beginner. You will find lots of small projects based on your skills and interest. Moreover, there is an option to create gigs like Fiverr.
Pros:
- The support team will contact you to share projects when you take paid membership.
- Again, less competition, as the portal is pretty new.
Cons:
- It evaluates regularity on the platform, if you stay online every time, your chances of getting hired are high.
- The lower number of projects
Fiverr
Fiverr is a platform where you can buy or sell services. In Fiverr by creating Gigs, you can offer your services, it has more than 3 million gigs, I highly recommend Fiverr, as Fiverr algorithm shows every seller’s gig to its buyer, No matter, you are new to Fiverr, if your gig impresses buyers, you will be hired immediately, sometimes client directly hired, I earned more than 1000$ by selling single gig. Check out Fiverr tips and tricks here.
Pros:
- Many buyers.
- You need not send any proposal.
Cons:
- Lots of sellers of the same service provider.
- High project fee
- No instant withdrawal.
Freelancer
Freelancer.com is the most popular platform among freelancers, it has more than 50 million users with more than 16 million jobs posted to date, and its presence in all over the world. As a beginner, I don’t recommend freelancer.com because it is higly crowded and competitive.
Pros:
- Large number of projects
- Low project fee
Cons:
- Crowded place to get hired as a new freelancer.
- Many scam projects
Upwork
Formerly Odesk is a popular freelancing site. Upwork has a profile approval process, you have to get approval for sending a project proposal. This makes Upwork more reliable for clients and as well as freelancers.
Pros:
- Less competition than other freelancing sites.
- Payment system is secure.
Cons:
- Need Account Approval
- High Project fee as compared to other freelancing sites
