There you are! Before we get started, we should know more about the term "freelancing." It is a word that comes from history, but we are just going to explain it. A freelancer is a person who works freely; they do not have to go to an office or work under any person. They work from their couch, which can be their home, office space, or any place that suits them. Simply we can say a freelancer has no boss but he is his own boss. So, we hope you better understand the term "freelancer."
It sounds very interesting, but freelancing is not as simple as you might be thinking. We are not saying that it is very hard to do, but the statistics and experienced freelancers tell us about the cons and pros of freelancing. We will discuss this later in another blog. But here, we will teach you how to do freelancing successfully to become an entrepreneur, or your own boss.
The second thing that comes to mind is that a freelancer working alone with no company or boss can still become an entrepreneur. Simple dedication and a strong grasp of your chosen skill will take you to a level where you can become an entrepreneur and hire a team or employees to work with or under you.
There are several online websites that provide the facilities to work as a freelancer online. However, they charge a percentage of your winning projects or contests, which can be 5% or more! You can read their terms and conditions by going to the links provided below.
This is a list of well-known freelancing websites and platforms where you can start your career. By the way, there are a large number of platforms that offer freelancers the opportunity to sell services by taking their commissions, but these are the most famous and most trusted by freelancers, where you are less likely to be scammed. One more thing: we have categorized these websites by their features. For example, some platforms (websites) allow freelancers to create gigs (service listings), while others not only allow you to create gigs but also participate in contests.

It's true that there is a lot of money and ways to earn online, but you have to decide how you will earn and how much you will earn.
Good luck and go ahead, freelancers!
