If I'm only interested in background extra work, which paid website service is most viable or do the free ones make a good enough resource?

I don't plan on being a professional actor. Last week, a friend of mine got me a background gig in NYC and now I want to do more. Should I pay Backstage and Casting Networks for the year to increase my odds of getting booked?
