Very nice video but I think you forgot a Huge and VERY important subject........scammers.....so many scammers on Upwork and Fiverr that will try to get you to contact them outside of the website chat......be careful people, if they don't chat with you through the website chat......do not accept their offers.
If I have SEO clients and I'm looking for SEO freelancers, where is the best place to find high quality labor as opposed to white label SEO with companies?

Even tho my bachelor’s program teaches a major where 94% of the graduates will work as freelancers, we had no class nor tips on how to get clients, so thanks for that video!
Teenage girl straight out of high school here, leaving a comment before i hop onto contra to see if it's for me. Thank you so much for the illuminating video. You and so many other creators are such a light on my creative career journey! Lots of love
a brilliant presentation! you are not only explaining what is what but also distributing the very positive energy so naturally, Thank you very much Deya you are amazing!
Downside: none of these work for serious gigs. If your skills are built in an enterprise/B2B environment, none of these platforms will land you anything worth your time.
Yes, exactly. Cold email and networking have gotten me more (aligned, high-paying) clients than freelance platforms have, but they're good to start out or get some extra cash.
Freelancer has to go down, People bot clients seconds after they place a job, so you will see 10 bids in like 10 seconds, and then you have the spammers, so you talking 50 applicants per job under an hour, Just a pointer 👍
Aight... Sorry I first checked Contra.... Video was pretty much all I wanted to know about currently and the amount of effort put in is ultimately gonna give you results so don't give up and keep it up👍👍 I'll make sure to watch every time even if it's not relatable🙂
not even finished the video and applying for contra!!! this video is so helpful. I have found some success on fiver but hate the high fees. Upwork = people bidding so low for jobs. Fingers crossed for contra!!
I've been binging your videos since finding your channel. You've been extremely helpful, your editing style is fun and whimsical, and you really make me feel like I can take the leap and start freelancing instead of just "waiting until the time is right" thanks for all your efforts!
Thank you, great video ❤. I'm on Upwork for 2 years - totally agree with your opinion about it. I actually planned to leave it this year anyway... I'm going to try Contra!
Really helpful, Deya. Thank you. I started on Upwork and found them to be quite decent across the board (once I learned to recognise and avoid the overbearing scams). Freelancer, however, I'm not sure I'd put them in the same tier as Upwork, based on personal experience. 15 days wait for first payment to be processed (which turns out to be 18 days) and a KYC process that left me feeling I was applying for a Swiss bank account. Seriously over the top.
I think the best is to leave these platforms as fast as possible. Get experience, then get out. They all have toxic pricing cycles. They are a great way to build a portfolio though once you get it going.
Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future.., I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life!!
Thanks, @Deya. I needed something other than Fiverr and Upwork. I'm currently banned from LinkedIn, so I'm limited. Contra helps me get out there with no downsides! ♥
There is a con of Contra. The payment system doesn't work in every country. You may be able to use debit card, paypal, direct bank transfer for developed countries but freelancers from developing countries has no way of receiving their money.
@@SilhouetteTitan The only payment gateway looks like USDC, but any crypto activity from my place is not allowed. So it is not useful for me atleast. Hope the platform grows so much that payment gateways will be more easier.
Been doing design for twenty years now and I am consistently humbled by how much I don’t know. The algo came through with this one because I am in the market for solid platforms and this absolutely helped with that so thank you!
Love your content - I'm just starting to engage in the international freelance job, and I was confused. You help me a lot. Cheers Deya, from Lisbon - Portugal
I need to do a ton of hiring over the next 3 months so on the other side. But I have to tell you that was a very nice comparison video that I found useful even though I wasn't the intended audience, well done!
Hola. I've watched this video a few times already. Thanks so much for putting it together. I liked, subscribed and added this to a playlist, so I hope the algorithm favors you!! Also I do my best to let the ads run so yo can generate a little coin. Keep it up!!
Thanks for the Contra site - new one on me so yes, I'll leave comment ad head off there! I 'discovered' you today and am now binge watching as you are a breath of fresh air and someone who keeps it real and kind of fun too. Thans for the inspirational nature of your content = telling it like it is...
Super helpful! I'm actually a six-fig consultant who's transitioning to a different venture, but want to continue to earn with as little lead gen effort as possible. So exploring freelance exchanges for feasibility. This was a helpful primer Deya I wish I'd seen before the hours invested in Upwork setup; now experimentation. Off to see your piece on Upwork next. Thanks for the endeavor!
Please do not leave your six-figure consultancy work for these jokes. The freelance sites are horrible, bot-riddled nightmares just to mention one problem.
Thanks for the excellent video. Have watched your other videos as well, but this one solves my problem of finding of finding specific freelancer platforms - Kuddos !!!
after watching this video i realized why i am not getting any customers or clients from these platforms thanks for making the video make videos like this it will be very helpful for us.
Great video, helpful reviews, and as a soured Fiverr Pro who is finally leaving that platform, I really appreciate your recommendations. Love the pic of your cat on the desk, and the other one who wanders through the background! Much appreciated!
Thanks for your videos Deya! Just signed up for Contra!!! I'm already a top rated freelancer in another platform but it's getting pretty tough to get jobs there to the point I was starting to get a bit desperate.
Isn't it hilarious that they've convinced you that you're freelancing but you're actually an employee working for commission. And then making videos for advertisers. It's actually just really s****y employment.
Really helpful! Thanks for sharing. Can’t believe how much these platforms take, not to mention what you need to set aside for taxes. If you’re in the US, you’re losing almost half your income to taxes and fees. Sounds like you really need to rely on volume to make it work.
LOVE this video and thanks for sharing your experiences and strategy! I'm always overwhelmed on how to approach freelance sites and it can get really frustrating when you see no results for a while.
I haven't got into freelancing just yet but I was hired to do a song for a company and actually completed it and got paid. It got me started on the idea to freelancing but I am anal about the research. The idea I could be getting paid for a gig sounds amazing but losing sleep AND money is a lose - lose. This video has definitely pointed me in the right direction for more clients and a better portfolio! Thank you for the in-depth video! Its everything I needed for my courage to go for it. :) Liking and subscribing for more!
Been in Fiverr for a long time, I have no complaints except for maybe the amount of time that money takes to clear. Other than that I have made more money there than anywhere else. I play harmonica for people and also do photoshop/ai photo editing and custom posters, but since Fiverr is unpredictable, meaning sometimes I get 3 orders in one day and then no orders in a week, Im excited to try out Contra. I'm signing up right now :)
Great Video Deya...I am looking for skilled freelancers...and I will surely follow your recommendation as for me caring about the freelancer is no.1 Importance
A very concise and well-delivered presentation. A lot of experience and hard work must have gone into making the content. Well Done! I'll watch the video again in parts and try each platform individually. Thanks again!
Upwork's fee model was similar to People Per Hour's. 20% initially, 10% in the middle & 5% at the end. This is not a confusing model & I'm pretty much ok with it, because fees only start to hurt when your project grows bigger.
Toptal: I applied today and they only accept people with 3 and 3+ years of at least experience. I got 2 so my application has gone on the waitlist. p.s: thanks for posting Deya :)
1:16 "up on there" john carmack (the lead of the game Doom and Oculus VR, rockets etc) has a habit of saying "on there" throughout his conversations. reminded me of that
Toptal: is all about HR "street cred". you could be absolutely terrible F tier professional but if you worked for any big brand (Microsoft, Google ,. FB etc.) in any capacity, you'll be plastered on the front page. This is how they milk the big spenders. I've checked some of the people's "design work" lmao. absolute B tier work but she worked for some large company for 6 months and did 2 things so she's on the front page like she's a Michelangelo.
+1 a coworker is fixing TopTal "talent" code: at a very high rate the sent a person who drags their feet for weeks even for very easy tasks and "writes" random StackOverflow code.
Thank you for this. Freelancer MIGHT be good for me as someone who has a non-graphic design job with consistent pay, but no experience at all in my actual field. NEVER MIND! Contra it is.
Girlyyyyy THANK YOU SO MUCH for making this video!!!! I'm a beginner, but it wasn't too hard to get my first client on UpWork; I do feel like it's a weirdly sketchy game to pay for connects to apply to jobs... so I'm a little lost as to whether or not it's worth my time. I'm trying to supplement my part-time job income to get by. I truly dislike the idea of a second, in-person job. Any tips you have for me would be SO APPRECIATED.
Thank you for making such an informative video and putting an entertaining spin on it. I looked at freelancing before and only came across the bottom half of your list with their associated problems. Super happy to find out there are better platforms catering to or allowing for real talent and jobs and not just CS students looking to buy their homework or people who think they can build the next amazon with a single developer paid $10/hr.
I did the whole contra thing and it had a whole TWO jobs listed after I spent a couple of hours building a profile. Like, what? Just looks like they make money from selling you extra css as a feature.
FIVER is an Israeli brand: Boycott the criminals please!!! For 4 months, 29,000 civilians killed by Israel, mostly women and children and 1.9 million starving... it's up to you to judge your humanity
Thank you for this video. After watching this video I attempted to register to Contra and sadly found, that in September-2024, things must have changed. Nowadays it will cost you $29(usd) per month to get access to jobs, community and so forth, otherwise wait in the queue for 4-6 week after you register and only then, maybe, you will get access to jobs. While you are there you are required to prepare a video showcasing your portfolio.
Looking at Freelancers to help complete a project I am personally working on. Basically shopping for subcontractors to speed things up for vector graphics design project. Thank you for the list of platforms to check out.
contests are great for getting real world work experience and portfolio projects to help you level up into better paid work and eventually become a full time freelancer. Even if you don’t win it’s great for those things, and it means you don’t always have to come up with ideas for mock projects for your portfolio on your own.
Yes, Toptal only accepts the top 3% of talent. However, they expect you to work for free until you're vetted and added to their network. That's definitely a con for me. I'm not saying their tier should change, but people should be aware.
The People Per Hour fees make complete sense. 10-20% of £250 isn’t much but if that applied on £5k+ it would be absurd. Tiering their fees down to a smaller percentage for higher value projects is very fair.

Upwork is worst. It's super saturated. And they have become super arrogant. Yucky.
yeah... i gave "Up" with them after the 576th virtue signalling communication about George Floyd..
