Hello Arun,

 

Your overview/summary and portfolio look good, but you need to change your photo and add more skill categories to your skills list.

 

The picture in your photo should be a close-up image of your head and shoulders that clearly shows your face. Read through Upwork's best practices for How to Choose A Good Profile Picture.

 

We are allowed up to 15 skills, and there are many more an artist/illustrator could add. It is important to keep your skills list updated with relevant skills categories so that Upwork can match you with relevant jobs, and so your profile will appear when clients search for your skills.

 

Once you make these updates, I think your profile will look better to clients and your job matches should be better.

Hi Khushboo,

 

I think your profile is informative and looks really good. I do not see any problems or issues that would prevent a client from hiring you.

Jay,

 

I think your profile looks good. The only two suggestions I have is to add a very important skill category to your skills list: Full-Stack Development and add a short job description to your position at Keshav. We are allowed up to 15 skills and it looks like your main profile has 14. The reason to add Full-Stack Development is because it syncs with your title and summary. This will Upwork match you with relevant jobs and help your profile appear when clients search for your skills.

 

Everything else looks fine. I do not see any problems that would prevent a client from hiring you.

Muhammad Ali,

 

I think your profile looks pretty good. Your overview/summary is quite long and most clients will never read it all, but the information is valid.

 

I recommend removing the first line of your summary: "Full Stack Web Developer | React JS, Shopify, and WordPress Expert" Why? Because only the first two sentences of your summary are shown to clients in searches, which means you have small window of opportunity to grab their attention. You want to use that small window to show clients that you can mee their needs. There is no need to repeat your title in the first line.

 

I would also add short job descriptions to each job in your employment history.

 

Everything else looks great.

Stanley Uchenna,

 

I looked through your profile and I think everything is good. Your overview/summary is well-written and gives prospective clients enough information to understand how you can help them.

 

My only suggestion for your profile is to add a portfolio to show samples of your work. Clients like visuals and the portfolio is a chance to make a positive first impression on potential clients. It can be difficult for an auditor/bookkeeper to showcase samples, but if you can think of any audit documents, reports,  software applications, etc. to show, it might help clients better understand the tools and resources you use.

 

The other areas of your profile look good. I do not see any problems that would prevent a client from hiring you.

 

Good luck!

Good Day Everyone,

I am new to Upwork and freelancing. Here is my profile link: Wilson I. - Full Stack Developer(MERN) - Upwork Freelancer from Aba, Nigeria

I have set up my profile, but I am encountering significant challenges in gaining recognition and excelling on the platform. I would greatly appreciate any advice you can provide regarding the changes that need to be made in order to achieve success on Upwork

Clark S Community Member

Hi Wilson,

 

You are having the same problem millions of new freelancers have when joining Upwork. Competition has been really high lately, so getting profile views, getting proposals views, and winning jobs can be tough.

 

I looked through your profile and I think it has good information for clients.

 

You are missing a very important skill category in your skills list: Full-Stack Development. Adding Full-Stack Development will sync your title, summary, skills, and employment history, which will help Upwork's algorithms match you with relevant jobs, and help your profile appear when clients search for your skills.

 

Everything else looks good.
