Why don't you share here the LAST three exact proposals your sent to your clients?

HI Adnan!

Thank you for your willingness to share your proposals. I know most people wouldn't do that in fear of negative feedback but I think it's really awesome that you did and it shows you are willing to grow and learn! 

I checked both of them and to be honest I was a little confused with the first one, so I'll split my advice referring to them as proposal 1 (facebook posts) and proposal 2 (SEO expert). These are just a few comments based on what I quickly gathered from reading the proposals. 

Proposal 1 (Facebook posts):

 - Are you offering your services to create Facebook posts in English? If that's the case, then the issue would be that the proposal has a several issues in grammar, is not clear and not properly written.

If that' the case, then I would avoid sending proposal that require content creation in English because clients will automatically skip you once they see that you don't yet properly dominate the language. I know you will continue to improve your English skills but till then, focus on other areas such as the one in your second proposal.

Proposal 2:

- This also applies to proposal No. 1. Your entire proposal unfortunately said nothing as to how you can help your client. Your proposal only had promisses and basic information of things that you say you can do.

Clients want to hear about them, and not about you. So saying your are an expert, or saying that they are on the right place again becuase you are an expert is not meaningful or helpful to you as well. It actually hurts your credibility instead of helping because you are begging for them to believe that you are an expert.

You need to put yourself in their shoes and think about what would you want to see if you were looking for an SEO expert to trust your website/business with.

I would look for the following:
- Results: What kind of results this professional helped other clients achive?
- Expertise: I want to deal with someone that really knows what they are doing and talking about. How can they prove to me that they are honeslty SEO experts?
- Validation: Which tests, certifications or courses has he taken to show he is really good at this?
- Portfolio: Which projects did he complete that are listed in his portoflio that can add even more clarity and prove is credibility as an SEO expoert.

- Testimonials: Which clients left testimonials thanking him for the services he was able to provide them with?

Well those are just some tips. I hope you find them helpful!

Much sucess to you!

Hugo

That's what i need to hear,

thank yoy.

$20 is too high. You need reviews and testamonials quickly and in bulk.........I would charge $10 until your JSS shows up. Right now you have nothing

[saproduction2]

Thank you so much for your concern.

Can you please suggest anymore changes.

Job offers are practically useless to send. People don't answer. I have been unemployed for 3 weeks.

Briefly about the statistics on the two sites for the past week. 10 people opened my page on your site. On the site of Ukraine (regular site of announcements) 85 times. It is amazing. I don't think it's possible for me to write in my name that I'm really good at designing.  Portfolio is the main thing in my work. I doubt that beautiful words will be better

[bobafett999]

As Hugo said your profile is rather weak.  You don't have much experience either on upwork or elsewhere.  People are reluctant to hire new unproven freelancers for the fear of getting cheated or not getting their money's worth.  Also, the field you are in is rather crowded.

As per my experience, I can say that it all depends on which Job you are applying for. If you are applying for a job that already has 20-50 or 50+ applicants your chances will be low. Use the boost option. If you know "Hisham Sarwar" follow his instructions or else pay a visit to his youtube channel.
