As a freelancer, can I offer more than one skills which are completely unrelated, on my profile?

Hey,

I'm a Top-rated content writer on Upwork. I've been offering writing services for over a year. Recently, I've taken up a few courses and learned a lot about Amazon selling services. So, I was hoping to add Amazon services into my skills in hopes of getting clients that are looking for Amazon virtual assistants. 

But I am just a little confused about whether I am allowed to have two skills that are totally unrelated to each other on the same profile. Any guidance on this matter will be deeply appreciated 🙂 In the case that it is not allowed, can I create a separate account for that specific skill?

You are allowed, and you are able to create a specialised profile alongside your main profile to showcase other skills.

Just be mindful, though, the clients prefer experts in one field rather than a jack of all trades.

Thanks for letting me know, Jamie! So, there's a prominent chance that if I see even a tiny bit of good response from the Amazon services, I would prefer to keep that as my only skill on my profile - and get rid of the content writing business. So the question is that when I delete my content writing profile, would I also lose my Top-rated status? Because I did get that from content writing.

No, that will see you suspended.

Use specialized profiles
