I have an account on this but never tried to find a job here. I do not know why I can not push myself working or even searching the right jobs for me. Who knows? I might try to recheck it soon.
Upwork is certainly one of the ways to make decent amount of money if you are a freelancer and you can participate well.
Yeah, they are certainly the most two popular freelancing platforms. The level of competition on those platforms is high but if you are patient and consistent you can maximize profit.
I am a freelancer working on translation. I had been a member of Odesk, but I seldom got any jobs from the platform. Currently, I mostly rely on referrals and word of mouth to find new clients.

As popular as up work is, making money on it is more complex than donkey passing through the eyes of a needle. If you are new freelancer and you want to be making money as soonest as possible, then learn skills that are not popular but demanded. That is gig that do not have much seller. Don't do gigs like writing, translation, video creation, graphics designing, ads promotion on social media etc.
Upwork could make your visibility locked privacy and even if you request from them hardly they may enable the function back to your account add to W BEN 8 tax form and use of Payoneer virtual or plastic card (virtual if not regulated on your country).
The truth is that the level of competition that the platform is very high. I think you can also try to venture into multiple freelance platforms simultaneously to have more chances.

All freelance sites are same in practice. The same way you are treated in the popular ones like upwork and Fiverr is the same way you would be treated there. The worst about these fiverr alternative sites is that, when it comes into freelance work, buyers majorly patronize upwork and fiverr.

Yes, not all would be able to make money on upwork even if you have what it takes to make money there. The competition is so high. Unless you have gigs which are not common and there are fewer sellers of such gigs on the platform.
Apart from this you must equally have positive rate from your previous buyers. If you are a new seller, you will have to keep waiting until you would get a buyer.
