The first online platform that I used during my early days as a freelance writer was Forum Coin if I remembered correctly. It was the freelance paid to post site that I wasn't able to earn money from after investing my precious time writing on the site. I think it was more like I lost interest working on the site and I just left.This is generally quite natural when it comes to looking at sites in which you can earn online. There are many scam sites that are out there and in order to be able to find a good and reliable platform by which you can earn you need to be able to go through this scam sites and learn from your mistakes before finding a legit site. For example, there are platforms that I have used before coming to this forum and whilst I have wasted time on them in the past the earning opportunity that I have now since being introduced to this platform is much greater than it would have been.
