If you’ve been following my previous posts, you’d know that it’s been several months since I started to work (again) remotely through clients I met on Upwork. I previously used Upwork back when it was still known as oDesk and back then I had a pretty good experience. I was able to craft unique articles that my client ordered for with a fixed amount upfront. Back then, if you were a freelancer, your employer would have to pay your fee and the oDesk processing fee (which wasn’t much at the time)–so it was a pretty good working situation. But hoooobooooy–lemme tell you, if you’re still hoping that’s the case now, you’d be sadly mistaken.
I decided to really give Upwork several months before forming an opinion. So since it’s been months, I like to think that’s more than enough time to form pretty solid impressions about working as a freelance writer using Upwork as a platform.
Without further ado, let’s get started!
