    As a seller, firstly they will let you run your services as long as you need, charging the most famous highest rate ever of 20% and another from the Buyer. In my experience, they would anytime suspend your gigs and kick you out especially when their algorithm makes your gigs shine on top of Buyer choices "unless" you start to "spend" what you earned on their platform, promoting your gigs, or taking training or whatsoever! The simplest way of doing it is picking up the easiest reason "Not complying with our Community Standard / Integrity / Policy " !! A policy that I doubt any of their staff read or understood! Or whatever comes on their way !! They tend to find all the ways to diminish your business and they would accept anything from anyone of their Buyers that helps on that as long as it is against you! P.S: Their decisions cannot be "undone" and not "discussable." As a Buyer, nothing special on the platform except a huge enormous security system that hinders innovation and the proper discussions with Sellers !! On another similar platform, you can Video call the Seller through any meeting app! In Fiverr, the maximum would be to find a data entry specialist! They are trying to expand .. true, but with their mentality in how business and innovation are being managed, how would you expect to have a Business Plan through a seller from the USA, who is not vetted and probably staying in Bangladesh and not the cute lady that you see her profile photo! Only cause the platform reads the IP address, easy to bluff!

    Whether you're a freelancer or looking for a freelancer, Freelancer.com can get you together. There is a wide variety of project types that either can post in. It does take more time to search for clients and freelancers, though, since there is quite a range of both in experience, quality, and compensation (to be expected, but harder to weed through.) As a freelancer, it seems to work well enough for solo freelancers, but it could be better.

    Pros
    Fiverr
    • Creating competition to work on one's projects. There are thousands of service providers on the site. As a result, any request for service will receive multiple responses. Also, Fiverr does a great job in vetting sellers with a star system that will gauge everything from response times to order delivery.
    • The communication and transactions systems set up by Fiverr are straightforward and seamless. Once you're engaged with your sellers, messaging between the two parties can be done through an inbox or on the order page. Payments are handled by Fiverr by placing a credit card on file.
    • Fiverr does a great job of exposing a buyer or a seller to an international audience.
    • Fiverr allows me to accumulate a list of my best sellers so that I can maintain contact and easily access their services again if needed.
    • As a seller, I'm exposed to a range of potential customers that would have not been within my reach otherwise.

    Freelancer Technology Pty Limited
    • Provide screen sharing to work with freelancers.
    • Provide an instant messenger software. When you receive a message from a freelancer, you receive a notification by email and then you have to go to the website to read his message.
    • Fees are too high for freelancers, they can refuse small projects due to high fees.

    Over the years, I've tried Freelancer, Guru, and Truelancer, but none of them measured up to Fiverr and I've long since abandoned trying to find a competitor. My relationship with Fiverr is on automatic pilot.

    I choose Freelancer.com for technical projects, such as designing a more responsive website for the business or a mobile app for the business. Also, I come to Freelancer.com when I urgently need a design layout of for marketing materials, especially when our only designer is on leave or sick leave. This allows me to have a fast design to cover for the absence of the graphic designer.
