ServiceScape

• Freelancing type: academic writing, document translation, manuscript editing
• Pros: custom pricing structure, flexible scheduling option, effective communication
• Cons: high commission percentage and limited field of expertise

ServiceScape is an online job board specializing in freelance writing, editorial, and translation work. The platform helps freelancers build profiles and promote them to a growing client database. 

What sets ServiceScape apart from other platforms is the hiring process. Instead of placing bids or sending proposals, freelancers simply wait for work offers from clients. Thus, it’s crucial to have a profile that stands out.

Freelancers and employers can connect easily via ServiceScape. Both parties can send messages and schedule a conference call.

ServiceScape distributes income every month via PayPal, check, and Gusto. Freelancers can set a custom pricing structure, project-based or hourly. However, the platform charges a commission fee of 50% for every completed work.
