Bidding on small projects through Upwork can feel expensive once you add up the connects you spend on proposals, especially when many jobs receive dozens of applications quickly. Freelancers who focus on smaller gigs say the cost of trying to get noticed sometimes eats into whatever profit they would have made from the project itself. This makes some people question if small jobs are still worth pursuing. Do you think Upwork has made small projects too costly to win?
 
I think the answer is yes because if you Factor in the amount you are using to send connect to the client before you land one client I need to end up bringing small project. If gay is not taking you might run on loss on some project as well because you were always want to spend your resources to get the job done on time.
