I have opened my profile from another browser and IP address. Just look at how it looks on a screenshot I attached. Do my clients rate me for three worst projects? What does it mean?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi Nikita,
The purpose of our logged-out site is to give prospective clients and freelancers a feel for what Upwork has to offer so that they can decide whether to join our platform; it is not intended to reflect all the jobs and all the profiles available on Upwork. That's the role of the logged-in site, which is only visible to our registered users. Please note that some jobs are originally posted as private or visible to logged in Upwork users only. Contracts formed based on those job postings will also not show in visitor view of your profile for privacy reasons.
Thank you.

I agree. When I recently viewed one of my specialised profiles while logged out, it said that I hadn't done a project since 2018. I'm not sure how it's good for Upwork's marketing purposes if freelancers are reluctant to share their profile links with any unregistered potential clients.

It's a privacy (client privacy) matter.
Any contracts that resulted from job posts that were set to "Upwork users only" or "invite only" is only visible to people logged into Upwork because clearly clients who wanted those projects visible to all and sundry would have set them to be public at the job post stage.
So by default, no jobs that resulted from job posts that weren't fully public will ever appear on your prrofile on logged out view.
