Good to showcase portfolio, but don't expect gigs

What differentiates Contently Marketing Platform from other similar products?
I think they have good blog posts for freelancers to learn from. They are well laid out and easy to navigate, and the content showed that they care about freelancers. This isn't always apparent on similar sites with similar overall functions. I do believe Contently wants both companies and freelancers to succeed.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
It was a nice space to have a portfolio when I was just getting started, and fairly easy to import new writing samples. I also really liked and saved some of the blog articles.
What do you dislike most about this product?
There was a separate site for freelancers, so sometimes I forgot where to go to login because it wasn't easy to find. Also, I never got any work from this site, even thought I regularly updated my portfolio for two years. I think they mostly get a few types of industry clients like tech or finance or something, but if you weren't in that space, you felt kind of out of luck. That was my experience and the impression I got from others, and in seeing those who talked about getting work.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you aren't in one of their key industries, save your time and look elsewhere for work. If you just need a portfolio site, it works well for that. Or if you want to learn and grow as a freelancer, then read the blog. Don't expect it to bring in money, though.
Pros
- Trustworthy
- Respectful
- Altruistic
- Acts with Integrity
Cons
- Less Effective Service
- Less Caring
- Wastes Time
