I am also totally newbie to UpWork but I think one needs a strong and reliable profile to get jobs. Just saying, I made 2 proposals without any response. I guess the beginning has to be difficult. Let's keep trying.

You need to any help for you

Yha, im working on that I just recently opened an account and I temporaly put something up. I expect my profile to be better by next week.

Hi Samuel,

 

Submitting proposals doesn't always guarantee that you will get hired or get a chance to be interviewed, but you shouldn't give up on sending proposals to potential clients. You may check our Hiring Headquarters and find some excellent articles there:

When you apply for jobs, make sure your proposal is well written and that you're absolutely qualified and certain of your ability to complete the job you're applying for.

 

Thank you.

You have way to many typos and errors in your profile to offer writing in English. Do you possess other online marketable skills?

I don't see any typo's nor do I offer any english or writing related work.
