Some of my friends on Upwork and I are thinking about changing direction or at least expanding our presence on online platforms. I specialize in illustration and 2D animation design, the rest of us in 3D. It’s just that the number of contacts has become too many. Submitting applications has become incredibly expensive.
I see a lot of complaints about this here. I’d like to ask if anyone has successfully transitioned to another system.
The platforms I’m considering are mostly UK-focused, so I’m not sure how friendly they’ll be. Starting from scratch is frustrating, but I’d love to hear recommendations for both niche and general-purpose platforms.
Or is this a losing proposition? Do all platforms charge a fee to submit applications now?
