Ask Is freelancing on platforms like Upwork still worth it in 2026?

[Edward22]

A few years ago, platforms like Upwork were one of the easiest ways to find your first few clients as a new freelancer. But these days the competition is much higher, the fees are still significant, and getting that first job can take a lot of time and effort. Some people still swear by it and say it is where they built their entire client base, while others say it is no longer worth the stress. Do you think platforms like Upwork are still a good starting point for new freelancers today?
