IMO the marketplaces, even the high end ones, are mostly not worth your time. They also tend toward lower rates and more fickle clients. On top of paying lower rates, they also take a cut of course. I would consider using a high-end marketplace or advice channel as supplements, but not as a main stream of work. Though it is more difficult and involved to find your own clients, it's a better approach once you've done it a few times.
