Hi Md. Raju,
Project Catalog is where you let clients come to you. When you create a project, it displays as a listing that clients can open to learn more. Clients find you by searching for the skills and services you offer.
When you create a project we will first review it before making it visible to clients. Our review includes making sure your project is complete, looks professional, and doesn’t violate our Terms of Service. Please allow up to five business days for your project to be reviewed.
Thank you,
NOTICE:
We are currently receiving more projects for review than usual. Please allow us longer than usual to review your project.

Our review includes making sure your project is complete, looks professional, and doesn’t violate our Terms of Service. Please allow up to five business days for your project to be reviewed.

Hello. I've cancelled a project catalog order within 24 hours after it was purchased. I want to be sure. Will this affect my JSS somehow?
I'd kindly like a response from a moderator please.
Thanks for your time!
Jan 27, 2023 07:30:53 PM by Arjay M
Hi Anika,
Thank you for reaching out to us here. You can cancel a project within 24 hours of receiving a client’s requirements, without any consequence from Upwork. However, If you cancel a project after 24 hours of the client’s purchase, the client will get a full refund and your JSS may be impacted. Clients can also leave a review for you at this stage.
Jan 28, 2023 12:45:42 AM by Anika T
Thank you Arjay. I cancelled it within 24 hrs of purchase/receiving requirements.
It'a good to know it won't have any effects on my JSS.

Jan 28, 2023 05:20:26 AM by Annie Jane B
Hi Abhishek,
Thank you for reaching out. I checked on this and can see that the project was only submitted last January 24th.
Note that it can take up to five business days for your project to be reviewed. However, the team is currently receiving an unusually higher volume of requests. Kindly allow our team a few more days to review your projects. Should we need more information about your submission, our team will send you an email with details on how you can edit the project for approval. Feel free to check out this page to learn more about Project Catalog.

Hi Abhishek,
Thank you for following up. As Annie previously shared please allow up to five business days for your project to be reviewed. Please know that weekend days do not count.

Hello Community and Upwork,
I have recently started posting Projects, under My Project Dashboard, for clients to be able to search and buy directly my offers, and I think that option could be very helpful. However, I have not been able to find a way to see if any clients have seen My Project or if the project even showed up under some search results.
This is something that I think Upwork should implement it and we could benefit from learning how to promote our projects and which keywords and tags to use.
I have looked under My Stats, but it shows only Profile Views, Invites and Proposals. When you open "My Project Dashboard" you can only see how many orders you have for that project, but there is no way to actually see what is most helpful for us as freelancers. We need to know if our project is being viewed by clients, and if it is, but we are not getting any orders, we can do something to adjust our proposals in the project.
For people that work and depend on projects, I'm sure you will understand the need for these stats, and I would really appreciate if you could upvote and like this post to raise this concern to Upwork developers, in hopes that this feature will be available soon.
Cheers,
Vasko

Hi Vasko,
We truly appreciate you reaching out and sharing your feedback regarding Project Catalog. I will surely pass this over to the team for further review. For the time being, there are a few settings to consider to make sure you’re in control of your schedule and only get orders when you want them. You can turn any project’s visibility off-and-on as often as you’d like. That way you can always control your workflow and avoid project cancellations.
Jan 31, 2023 02:10:18 AM by Vasko C
Hello Arjay,
My post is not about making my project visible.
My post is about being able to see statistics for the project before we get orders.
It would be nice to know how many views is my project getting. That way I would know if my project is being viewed, but I'm not getting orders, I will adjust the offer to make the project more attractive for clients.
Thank you.
Jan 31, 2023 04:34:10 AM by Annie Jane B
Hi Vasko,
Thank you for reaching out. Projects do not have available stats at the moment so there's no way to view this. We've already shared this feedback with the relevant team and if there should be any changes in the future, we'll make an announcement here.
Jan 31, 2023 05:18:46 AM by Vasko C
Hi AJ,
Yes, I am aware that projects don't offer statistics. That's exactly why I created the post, to give feedback to Upwork developers to implement this feature.
I trully believe that everyone working with projects will benefit from having this option available.
Thanks,
V

Hallo Raju..am Rooney..It's very clear that your client tricked you so that he/she could get to see your other projects which he succeeded..next time use the proper channels to show your work... let the client pay for the view even if he/she doesn't really need it

Hello everyone,
In my project view, I am getting this message.
"Sorry, you cannot purchase projects in Project Catalog using this account"
Looking for your valuable advice, please.
Thanks,
Jan 31, 2023 04:41:21 AM by Annie Jane B
Hi Monzur,
Thank you for reaching out. It is by design that you would see this because you cannot purchase your own project, you can only view it the way it is presented to clients.
Feb 2, 2023 05:00:10 AM by Monzur Al H
Hi Annie Jane,
Thank you so much for your prompt reply.
Now I relieve from this concern.
B. regards,
Monzur

Project Catalog is where you let clients come to you. When you create a project, it displays as a listing that clients can open to learning more. Clients find you by searching for the skills and services you offer.
I tried but wasn’t able to replicate the issue you’re describing. I was able to get your project as a result by using your project title when searching here. Could you please try using a different browser or the incognito mode of your current browser? You may also try clearing your browser’s cache and cookies.

Hi Upworkers,
I am a new member here and i would like to know if i offered a project what makes it appear first to the clients because i saw many projectes are offered by freelancers.
the question is my project getting a row by date to be appeared in the clients' search? or i have to do something in particular to show it in the first row of the search.
Thank you guys
Feb 1, 2023 04:19:57 AM by Annie Jane B
Hi Ashraf,
Thank you for reaching out. The website is working as designed since the search is not static, it's dynamic and results will change so that other projects are also shown so all freelancers have an equal opportunity to win jobs from clients. It is not yet possible for freelancers to influence where their projects will appear in search results.
Feb 3, 2023 01:43:44 AM by Pradeep H
Hi Omar,
If you are referring to the recently submitted Project, the time to review projects is about 5 days. We will notify you when the process is done.
Thank you,
Pradeep

Samia,
Please give Upwork 5 business days to Review and then contact the "Get Support" button on the bottom right of the screen if you have not heard back. The Upwork team can get huge surges of requests in short time spans so please be patience. Have a great day!
