Hmm i really want to go into freelancing. I know for a fact that it is not easy at all, i have seen so many persons who claim they have been trying and trying. The few efforts i have put in has made me realize that it is not easy at all. I have come across persons who have spent alot just to buy courses or materials needed to succeed in freelancing.

Freelancing as an online career is not an easy thing. That is just the reality we need to understand before we embark on the journey to make money as a freelancer . When you are interested to make money this way you need to also understand that you have to spend a lot of your time on advertisement and probably to get high rating before you think of making money on the platform since most of the job on freelance platform are being offered to people based on their rating and their level.
This implies that to be at high chance of making money as a freelancer you must be looking for every way to increase your rading and your level at the same time.

Another thing that will help you is being expert in the skill you are offering and no matter the little money you are being paid , try as much as possible to deliver the best quality service.
