Hi Anthony, 
Would you please have a look at my profile!! 

Bulhameen,

You had me right up to the portfolio. It's certainly very, very, very, very suspicious for someone to brag atout their writing experience then put nothing but photos and graphics in the portfolio section.

Hi! Please check my profile. Would love to get some feedback on how it can be improved. Thanks in advance

Weibin,

I don't see any red flags, Weibin. But I haven't a clue and never heard of your particular skillset. So ... I'm politely mum.

 

However -- is it friendly? Does it convince me you're an expert? Is it confident? Those are the markers you need to hit. So judge for yourself.

Good luck. Welcome aboard.

I'm new to upwork and looking forward to get my first full time client. Needed your support and help. I badly need income for my family.

Irish,

Upwork is for freelancers, not people looking for employment.

The main thing is not to give up.
Let's get through.👌

1. Profile picture your profile picture is not a professional, this should be a professional one at least with a smiling face 😊.

 

2. Hourly Rate set your hourly rate to 10$ for now until and unless you get a job.

 

3. Profile description your profile description is too short. Make it little bit elaborative, like in first paragraph write about self then your experience, services and tools .

 

4. Portfolio add at least 3 portfolio images related your expertise, you haven't added a single portfolio image, so add portfolio image related to that company, whatever you've done for any kind of a company.

 

5. Introductory video please must add an introductory video about yourself, services and expertise.

6. Education must add your education.

 

7. Certifications add some of certifications related to your expertise, and description with keywords.

 

8. Share profile on social media platforms share your profile on social media like LinkedIn, Facebook etc.

Please check my profile. Any suggestion or valuable advice will be appreciated!

Zaima,

 

I read recently there are 12 millon freelancers on Upwork and that includes 1.5 million writers.

 

So, you have a lot of competition. I suggest going to your local newspaper or some regional magazine and writing a few assignments for them. Do that for a year -- two years .... then you'll be ready for Upwork.

Dear sir

Thank you Anthony for your feedback.  I have added in some personal info to hopefully help establish trust.

Just enjoying compter graphics does not make you an expert. Sorry.

Hasan,

 

Trust is the operable word, for sure.

Hi everyone, nice to meet you all, I'm very new on Upwork and would be grateful if you can check my profile

Hey,Kindly review my profile.

Thankyou.

 

Jacklne,

Your write up is not very convincing and your portolio doens't have any writing samples in it. Is this legit? It seems quesitonable.

Kindly review my profile 🙏 

Checking on that

Please review my profile. Thank you.

Dominie,

 

I may have misread your profile previously ... I was trying to get you to make it clear that you are a writer who specializes in law and finance.

On second glance, it does seem like you do that. But to make it clearer, I would find a way to put that in your title. "Law and Finance Writer." Or "Credentialed Law and Finance Writer."

Thanks for this topic. I've recently been scammed by someone on Upwork that I trusted and have been left to start again.
I'd really appreciate some help - my profile is real and I am an experienced person.

Thank you!

Andrew,

That's fairly good profile. It's friendly enough.  It's confident and it convinces me you're an expert. Or you better be after 30 years.

 

Anyway, check out other rates on Upwork for simiilar talents. I'm not saying you aren't worth that much in the real world, but the economy is slightly less glorious on Upwork. Maybe I'm wrong ... your profile is fine otherwise.

Please check my profile and help me to make corrections where needed. 

 

Your profile looks great. Add Project Catalogue and Portfolio items (if possible). Also, elaborate on your professional skills in your general Profile instead of speaking about your personality. 

Am waiting too but no response 😕 

Muhammad,

Your write-up is way too long. Nobody reads those long lists of software applications that don't even sound possible. But your profile is getting you work and good reviews. Can't knock that.

Udodirim,

I don't have my glasses on .. hope I spelled your name correctly.

Anway ... I like your profile. You don't overstate anything .... you stay on comfrortable ground. Nice.

Ahrodjon,

Do you actuall design fonts or do you just pick them out of a long list of fonts made availble by some cororate program?

You have to start a freelance business with honesty.
