## Where they are the better choice

Upwork suits long-running, hourly engagements, interviewing several freelancers for one role, and hiring for work far outside SEO and link building.

## Where this marketplace is the better choice

For defined pieces of SEO and link building bought as a package: the price, deliverables and revisions are fixed before you pay, there is no buyer fee, and nothing is released until you accept.
