If you are a freelance worker or are self employed and do gig work, would you rather join a gig site or make your own site to promote your work? Gig sites will probably help you get more views on your service and maybe more hits, but you also lose a cut of your earnings to the gig site itself. If you have a website your own, you only have to pay the site fees and any money made, all goes to you. Which do you prefer?
