Freelancing is a contract- or project-based profession where someone uses their skills and experience to sell services to a client or multiple clients. The number of work freelancers can accept depends on the range of their abilities, schedule, and how they manage their time.Freelancing is often conducted online. However, it may depend on the type of work or what a client requires. For this reason, it is commonly mistaken for work-from-home jobs.On the contrary, freelancers are free to work wherever and whenever they want. Meanwhile, a work-from-home job involves a single employer that provides a salary to an employee, often full-time.
