Not getting invites

[harsh_kukreja]

Hi, i was fully dependent on invites and sending proposal become boring. 

These days i am not getting single invite after trying changing description, title even hourly rates also. 

I don't know why i am not getting any invites. 

This is frustrating because i am habitual of getting invites and now sending proposal is not easy for me. 

Can anyone help and clear me about this.

IME both the quantity and quality of invitations ebb and flow governed by forces I cannot fully fathom. From time to time, it becomes necessary to ply my trade in the marketplace and crank out proposals.

Your JSS is under 90%, and we are coming up to the holiday season where everything tends to be a little more quiet.

Thanks perta,

I was getting a lot of invites when my jss was 86.
I can accept that there is a holiday season because of coming Christmas and the new year. 
But still my friends getting invites from the clients.
In your suggestion, it's waste of time to change the description, title, and rates daily. m i, right?
Can you tell me when will be more work come in market Jan or Feb ?

Maybe their profiles are better. Visibility in search results is rotated. The better your profile (metrics), the more often you appear higher. Sending out proposals also helps.

Total waste of time. Make your profile better, then leave it alone. 

Your time is better spent sending top notch proposals rather than messing with the profile, especially daily...

I can't predict the future but in general things pick up after the holidays.

Thanks for the clarity,
It means my profile was good but i ruined it myself by updating it daily. I will not repeat that mistake again.

I also become an active member of Upwork since  Jan-21. I also didn't get job invites on Upwork. What are the criteria for getting job invites on Upwork? Can anyone help me with this issue

There are no criteria. A client finds you with the search function and might want to work with you, that's it.

I think you should send proposals since its effects on the algorithm of search result

Hello Upwork Community,

Last year I received multiple job invites from upwork related to my skillset but since last six months I haven't received any single invitation from any client. I tried to change my hourly rate, title, description and other things on my profile but no success. Can anyone specialist check my profile and let me know what things are missing in my profile that causing not getting job invitation or hits to my profile. This is really very frustrating.

Can anyone help please.

Thanks!
