Vetted WordPress developers at a published rate
Codeable is a hiring service for WordPress work with the rate written on the page rather than bid down in an auction. You describe the job, a few vetted developers estimate it, and the price lands inside a band the site tells you in advance. That suits somebody who wants their site fixed rather than a hiring process.
Our note
This is the expensive end of WordPress help and the honest one, since the rate is on the page instead of at the bottom of a negotiation. Use a general marketplace when the job is small and Codeable when breaking the site would cost you more than the quote.
Only on this side
Freelance creatives, free to post a brief
Twine is a marketplace of freelance video editors, animators, designers, illustrators, copywriters and music producers, and posting a job costs nothing. What you pay is a service fee on the hire, and it drops once you have paid a freelancer enough. The published project ranges give you a straight answer about what work costs before you write the brief.
Our note
The falling fee is the reason to keep hiring the same editor here rather than moving off-platform once you like them. Upwork has far more people; Twine has fewer and they are all creative, which is worth something when you are the one reading the applications.
