$2M Earned on Upwork. I would love to HELP!

[#1]

Hey Everyone,

I posted this in the newbie group. I can answer newbie questions there,

I can help answer more advanced questions here, I would love to help my fellow freelancers : )

I have been on upwork for 12 years now (previously elance),

I have been on the forums for a couple years but never really participated much,

I figured, what better way than to help others, ask away, some stats below (you can also click to see my profile)

👉 Earned $2 Million+ on Upwork.
👉 Completed 400+ jobs on freelance platforms.
👉 Attained 200+ 5-star reviews.
👉 Worked 40,000+ hours on freelance platforms
👉 Earned a 100% Feedback Rating
👉 Worked with 1,000+ Clients

Thank You - Sam

There are many things to correct in your profile.
The photo, let it be of your face, let it look good.
The title, look for one that defines your skills. It's just that you're not very specific.
The presentation. Is it an AI text? It seems like it. Bad, especially because you're supposed to be a writer. It also doesn't let you know your real level of English.
You are losing the first two lines, which are the only things the client sees without opening your profile. You don't have to say hello or say your name or what you do. Customers can already see that. You must hook them with those two lines.
I leave you two threads for you to read, everything, links included:

Hey Faraz,

I had a quick look and here are some suggestions: 

1. Add a video if you can, not many do it so it will help.

2. The title you are using is way to long, I would make something shorter

3. Something like "IT Help Desk Expert"

4. Great Job on the Reviews and the JSS. They look great. Keep it up.

5. Certifications also look great!

6. In general your profile looks awesome, you just need to submit proposals and keep clients happy.

Hey Adama, I will have a look at your profile.

[#10]

Dear Samer B. 

Nice Motivation for me. Can you review my profile as well?

Which sections can be improved?

Thanks in advance.

[#11]

Let me know any additional questions you have. I hope my feedback helped.

[#12]

Great achievement! Best of luck.

[#13]

I appreciate you

[#14]

That's very generous of you supporting Freelancers.

So I'm making my transition to Upwork. I really believe their is opportunity. I have been putting together my portfolio and requesting testimonials from clients, to establish that trust for other clients to work with me.

I would appreciate it if you take a look at my profile, as you see I have added some projects so clients can take a look at the work I deliver.

Thanks again.

[#15]

No worries. I will have a look

[#16]

Sure, you can send me the link.

Hey Rawad,

I had a quick look, some quick observations: 

1. You can always add a video if you would like.

2. For the title, I would use something different than wellness based because most people wont search that

3. The portfolio looks good, as a designer, the more the better

4. Because you lack reviews, the more testimonials you get, the better

5. For certifications, Upwork does allow you to add 2 there, but they also have some official ones you can take / add

6. Submit proposals and get small clients at the start, do a good job, get reviews and keep doing that.

[#18]

Feel free to add any additional questions.

If anyone has any additional questions, feel free to put them here.

Hi, Samer! Thank you for reviving this post. 

I recently tried to optimize my profile in a bid to get more invites and views, but it hasn't converted so far. Would you please take a look at it and point out areas that might need improvement and stuff like that?

Thank you so much 

[#21]

Sure, I will check it out here in the next couple days.

[#22]

Hi, Samer! Dropping a reminder for the profile review. 

Thank you so much 

[#23]

This is on my list, I will get back to it shortly, give me a couple days.

[#24]

Hey Precious, I had a quick look

1. I do like the title

2. I feel like the introduction is to long and jumbled together

3. jss is good, top rated is good

4. get more reviews and testimonials

5. add more portfolio items

6. profile video if you can

[#25]

Thank you so much, Samer!
