Due to how things were being done on other freelance website, blocklancer made up their mind to eradicate some certain things to help prevent members from gaming the system which includes:
On different freelance websites, there exist different fake reviews among members and this always reduced the trust of project owners or job creator's. Blocklancer is implementing proof of identity which will prevent multiple fake account on the platform.
Fees: on other freelancing platform, the rate at which they deduct fee is really surprising, some collect up to 20%. On blocklancer, it will be 3% which make the platform a great one.
Power Centralization: freelancer are always afraid of their account been banned even without any reason or warning which shouldn't be. A disputing sections is available on blocklancer where different dispute can be resolved among members.
It is really great knowing that blocklancer was developed on the blockchain which will bring in more transparency, less fee deduction and even brought in more freelancing experience. I haven't try a freelance website before but I will love to join this because of blockchain involve and this will aid me in developing more of my skills.
