not getting views and impressions on profile

[#1]

Hi Upwork Support, 

I'm Fazal Kareem, a React Native developer with over 6+ years of experience in React Native and Flutter. I've created my profile, added relevant keywords, and completed it to 100%. I've also boosted my profile, but I'm not receiving any views.

Here is the public link to my profile, which is set to public: [https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~01b5f4c4eec68ff88f].

Could you please review it and let me know what improvements are needed?

I'm actively working on enhancing it and am eager to land my first job as soon as possible.

Thank you in advance!

Fazal,

What you have is not a profile. It's an advertisement. They are different.

The best opening for a profile is this:

"I am an expert _____________________ with ___________________ education and _____________ work experience, who can ____________________ (perform tasks for you), so you can _______________________ (earn more money, not worry about somerthing, concentrate on other things."

With that opening sentence, you can see that the rest of the write up will be about how you acquired the skills and work experience to become an expert  ......................... who can help the client get what he wants (money, time off, whatever).

A profile does not need to include long lists of every application you know. Once you convince someone you are an expert, you do not need a long, towering list of computer programs. 

When you go to get my car fixed at the repair shop, they don't tell you every tool they have in the garage. They don't advertise their shop by saying "We have hammers and wrenches and screwdrivers and bolt cutters ... 

So, why should you list all your computer skills? You shouldn't. 

All the auto mechanic says is, "I can do the work and I'll have your car ready for you by Tuesday morning." 

That's all .... you need to say. I think when you write long lists of computer applications, it sounds a bit like a rookie on his first day at work. But clients want experienced people who are confident they can finish the job. They don't want people who sound like rookies. 

"I have these computer skills; I've done it before and I can get the website up in a week." That's enough.

Good luck.

Thank you for your detailed explanation. I’ve implemented all the changes you suggested, and I appreciate your guidance.

I would be grateful if you could help me draft a proposal for mobile app development or share some of your best sample work in this area. I have applied for numerous jobs but have not received any responses, and I believe a well-crafted proposal could make a significant difference.

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

I would be glad to teach you how to write proposals. It's much simpler than many people imagine.

I'm really happy with your help, I’ve started getting more views. Now, I’d love to get some ideas on how to write proposals. With your help, I’m sure I’ll get my proposals shortlisted and win work. I’m excited to learn how to write better proposals and always want to improve. Any tips or advice you can share would be really helpful. Looking forward to it!
