I cannot tell you anything about your presentation as it is not my field, but I can tell you that only the works that you have created should appear in your portfolio, are they your works?

I have a total work experience of 10 years on Upwork. Recently, I have had trouble getting hired. I send many proposals and even buy connects. I keep applying but it is as if my profile does not even get noticed. I get so excited each time there is a job, and I apply and await and no response - where am I going wrong. I have even made several projects and hoping I get hired through that. But nothing, zip, nada. Please help!!!

Dipa, your profile reads well. I'd not recommend any further changes except check the skills list. Are those words exactly what you are looking for? Also, I noticed that around 2019 you've made a switch to 'ghostwriting'. That is a niche market. Writing for pet industry might be a relatively broad market. I would suggest applying aggressively.

I can only tell you that third person introductions are impersonal to me.
In addition, you must separate by paragraphs. A wall of text is difficult to read.
Sep 18, 2021 01:03:24 PM by Ahmed M
Thank you, very helpful
i was worried about the third person too.

What the client sees of your presentation are the first three lines. So remove everything superfluous. Concentrate in that first paragraph what you want to highlight for the client.
And remove the paragraph of "new freelancer" and want to grow on the platform.
Assuming that the work in your portfolio is created by you, I think you should raise your rate.

Hello there,
I am looking for someone to provide me some feedback on my proposals. My current hire/proposal and interview/proposal rates are 1/10-12 and 1/6-8 respectively.
Most of my proposals look like this:-
Hey there,
I see that you're looking for writers to create content on various topics. I'll provide you high quality, engaging content that'll meet all your requirements and follow all your deadlines. I also have some really good researching skills. For reference, I'm attaching one of my web-researched work pieces so that you can see my writing style. If it seems like i can help you, consider contacting me now. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Kind regards,
Sushant
I would really appreciate if someone can tell me how should i create more appealing proposals.

Thank you Ayomide,
so what I type as a cover letter, I should list as my header instead? Could you explain what you mean? I am open to all information, thank you for taking the time to review my page.
Sep 19, 2021 12:38:37 PM by Jamila L
Sushant B,
This is perfect, I like your cover letter, is this what you have as your intro letter on your page, or do you use this as your intro letter when submitting proposals? I am open to all information, so thank you for taking the time to review my page.
Sep 19, 2021 12:45:56 PM by Jamila L
Sushant,
do you mind if I use your template for my profile? I like how it is to the point, yet thorough about who you are and what you provide.

That is not acceptable, and called plagiarism. It is also a violation of Upwork's terms of service that could lead to account suspension!
Also, what is the point of asking him if he minds when you then go and just do it?
Create your own! You can't just copy someone else's profile overview and then change a few bits and pieces!

Sure why not? If you find anything useful, just take it and edit it as required.
You can't give someone permission to plagiarize someone else's overview....

I can not make a criticism of your profile, I only tell you that you should review the last item in the portfolio. The images are rotated and the neck hurts a little when looking at them
Hope someone else can advise you.
Sep 19, 2021 12:34:05 PM by Jamila L
Thank you Maria T,
The images are straight on my computer, yet when I load them into Upwork, it rotated some and not others, do you have any suggestions on how to fix this? Thank you again for your input, I will get this fixed immediately.
