Hi Ak,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us. Allow me to explain how  Project Catalog works. Firstly, we review all project listings, including consultations, before publishing them on Project Catalog to help ensure a quality platform that helps you attract quality clients, and we promote Project Catalog on client pages.

 

Once your project listing is published, the project will display on your Upwork profile. You can also share the project’s URL in your profile’s description and on your social media accounts for even more visibility. Your project’s overview consists of its title, category, project attributes, and search tags. The information you include here is your first impression to prospective clients, so you’ll want it to shine. Feel free to check this help article for more details. Please allow up to five business days for your project to be reviewed.

 

 

NOTICE:

 

Project Catalog submissions by Top Rated, Top Rated Plus, and Expert Vetted Talent are typically reviewed within 2 business days. If you do not have one of these badges, please note that our current review process is experiencing an extensive delay due to internal efforts to enhance our efficiency and accuracy.

Hi Saad,

 

There is no option to limit the visibility of your Projects to your Specialized profile only.

 

Thank you,

Hi Prandeep

Thank you for the clarification. I was also looking for the same question and the answer was not really helpful. I think there should be the same feature as showing particular project catalogs as we do with portfolio items. otherwise, there is no use of having personalized profile when a user can see things mixed with two different skills. other profile should be completely different from the old one having nothing from the old profile.

I hope you will convey this message to the Upwork team if they could add this feature in recent future possibely.

Thanks.

I have several project catalogs but none of them rank in search in google or I do not know if any other way my project catalogs reach clients. How does it work? I also can not see any analytics of Impression, Clicks or Visitors in my Project Catalog. Is there anyone who knows better how it works?

Hi Abdur Rab,

 

Thank you for reaching out. 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.

 

Prospective clients can easily browse projects, discover the details, message you with questions, and start working with you—all directly from your project. Meanwhile, you’ll be in complete control, managing the visibility and workflow of your projects to leverage the work you’re passionate about. You may want to check this help article as well for more details.

The projects in your Project Catalog are much like your profile; Upwork's algorithms determine how, when, and where your project shows up in search results. Your project will show up when clients search using keywords related to your projects.

 

If you did not include keywords (search tags) when you created your project, you can edit your project and add up to five (5) search tags. (See the screenshot below.) The search tags will help clients find your project.

Why is there no option in the project catalog for Sourcing and Recruiting?

Arjay's avatar
Arjay M Retired Team Member

Hi Aleksandra,

 

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.

 

Another way to get ideas for your project is to browse through Project Catalog. You can see all available categories that may fit your skills and look at what other freelancers are offering. But also think about what you might be able to offer that’s unique or more specialized than what’s already available.

 

From there, you can start creating a project and let clients come to you!

Hello, 

 

I am a new freelancer who has been trying to set up a project catalogue for more than three days now. My hindrance is the project image required before I can move forward. I have tried numerous times with the specifications stated in the error message and from other freelancers who have given suggestions in the forums, all to no avail. I need this to be looked over as soon as possible because it is quite frustrating,

 

Thank you for your time.

Hi Princess,

 

Thank you for reaching out and reporting this. We scale images on Project Catalog to 1000x750 pixels, a 4:3 ratio. If your image’s original pixel number is significantly larger or smaller, or the actual size is a much different ratio, it may not look good when scaled. For example, small pictures may look pixelated (blurry or fuzzy) when enlarged.

 

Please take a minute to carefully review the guidelines listed in this help article when adding an image/video to your project. Let us know if the issue persists with a screenshot of the error from your end, and we'll look further into that for you. We are looking forward to your confirmation.

Hello Arjay, 

 

Thank you for reaching out to me. It still doesn't work. I have been trying with the given specifications, 1000x750 pixels, and the error message still comes up. I will attach the screenshot of the error message and the picture that I am trying to upload. I wonder what I am doing wrong.

Hi Ayaan,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us. You're on the right page. On the pricing page, scroll down to the “Choose add-ons” section. Choose from pre-populated add-ons, or create your own customized add-on.

I had set up projects many months ago, but so far have not received any order through there. We as freelancers also do not get any stats like the number of impressions, clicks, etc. Has anyone here actually ever got any project clients or is it just faff?

I have got many clients through projects.

Try to refine your projects and be patient. Nothing will happen overnight, you need to be determined.
