Lindsay, that's an impressive profile. It is well written and no major changes come to my mind. I wonder what prompted you to seek feedback. Are you experiencing a slow period with fewer clients? It could be due to the holiday. People are traveling after a long time. One week before and after will be slow period. I'd suggest patience 🙂
Good luck, you are doing extremely well and I'm sure you will continue to do so.

Hi Kareemo,
Thanks for your post. I'm Upwork Success Partner and an independent professional on Upwork for more than 6 years, and I'll be happy to share a few tips on how you can improve the marketability of your profile:
Currently, you have one specialized profile but it sounds like you're trying to attract clients in many different areas. To ensure all of your expertise is captured using the features of specialized profiles, you might want to consider adding an additional specialized profile to showcase your skills. You can review a list of all of the options here to help you select the most relevant one. You can have up to two of these profiles which can help you show off different areas of work and market to specific types of clients.
Additionally, you could increase the exposure of your profile by adding a Project to the Project Catalog.
I encourage you to visit the Upwork Events page for past and upcoming educational events. It might help you learn more about how to get started and be successful on Upwork. There is a great session to check out called Upwork Power Webinar: Winning Profiles to get even more tips.
I hope this helps!

Hi Dina,
Welcome to Upwork!
Thanks for your message. I'm an Upwork Success Partner and an independent professional on Upwork for more than 6 years, and I'll be happy to share a few tips on how you can improve the marketability of your profile:

Having at least one Specialized Profile is important for search results as well. Clients can filter for talent who work in project categories that correspond to the specialized profile categories. If you do not have a specialized profile in that area you would not show up in the search results at all.

Hi Rahul,
Thanks for your post. I'm also an Upwork Success Partner and I'm happy to share a few tips on how you can improve your profile’s marketability:
Consider adding a Project to the Project Catalog t increase the exposure of your profile. Consider adding this feature and some items about the service you provide as well as an image to catch the client's eye. You can review popular projects and get some inspiration from other talent here.
I hope this helps. Wishing you lots of success on Upwork!
Best,

Hi! I am a freelance video editor, new to upwork not long ago.
Can I have any experienced upwork freelancers to review my profile please?
Let me know what can I improve.
Thank you so much!
Jul 6, 2021 08:30:02 AM by Youssef B
Hi Jason, Your profile looks amazing!
Just a couple of suggestions that I believe would showcase it much more.
In the portfolio section, Instead of putting all your work in one item, try to expand them to fill more items in your portfolio section. I believe this will make it eye-catching for your profile visitors.
Also, make sure that your profile completion is 100%; You can check that from the right part of the "Find work" page.
I hope this helps. Wish you the best of luck!

Your portfolio is good, but you need to work on your profile. It looks like you only spent a few minutes writing it, and it doesn't sell you or help you stand out. Also, your video and work history should be in English.
Jul 8, 2021 06:39:23 AM by Jose C
Good morning everyone
I would like you to help me with a question.
I consider that I have an excellent portfolio of work focused on branding, I have more than 8 years of experience in my field and hundreds of satisfied clients.
But when I entered this platform, I noticed that no one hired me, no matter how hard I tried, I can't get someone to take a risk and give me this first opportunity on the platform. What am I doing wrong? I already spent all my connections.
If you had any advice that could help me, it would be very helpful. Thank you all

Hello, my name is Carolina and I am new to this platform and I would like someone to review my profile and give me suggestions on how to improve
Jul 9, 2021 08:31:08 AM by Simantini K
Carolina, that is a great start. 1. I think there might be an error in your pricing. One page mentions hourly rate $10 while other $100. Such a wide range is unusual. 2. Consider adding a portfolio of services you offer. Having 5-6 representative items usually helps. 3. Consider creating project catalogs. That will give you more visibility and more control over the scope of projects.
Good luck, I am sure you will get good projects here.

Wao, This is great, I have never seen something like this on any other freelance platform. Guess I have to visit community forum again and again.
To all me seniors, first of all Thank you for making this world better, no matter which field you are in. You did a great job in providing solid base for your youngsters. Not matter, if you are a doctor, and engineer, managers, kudos to everyone.
I would love to have some constructive critcism on my profile as well. One thing for sure I will ask and that is, should I add portfolio that have been done a long time or currently not relevant to what I am doing at the moment?
Another thing, the development world is very wide these days so no one can claim to be an expert or know a 100% of the platform. Should I add those things as well which I know a bit. For example, writing html, css isn't my cup of tea but I know how to do it.
Thank you every one who read this post, who will reply to this post and Upwork

Hi, i already fix my profile reading your comments. Can u check my profile... please?
Jul 14, 2021 04:24:28 PM by Simantini K
Jose, your profile is well-written. But "Look at the web page as if it were a person; if it is ugly, you will not score" .... something is off about this sentence. Perhaps instead of 'ugly', 'untidy' or 'unkempt' might work better. Consider creating project catalogs at various price-points and various projects. Lastly, do you have any testimonials from previous employers/clients?
Good luck, I am sure you will do extremely well on this platform.
