Please How can I improve my Upwork profile views?

 

I'm still a newbie here and I don't have high ratings to beat top-rated freelancers to jobs so I rely on invitations but last month I didn't get profile views.

 

What can I do to improve my profile views? Please check my profile and suggest anything that can help me get more job invitations.

Hi everyone. I have created an Upwork account recently and written more than 130 professional proposals, yet my chances of getting a job contract with a prospective client failed. 

I would like your help, tips, or feedack on my profile descriptions and portfolio. I would appreciate your constructive advice as well. Thanks in advance! 

Mustapha, your profile reads well. If possible, get some testimonials from previous clients/employers. I would also advice to create product catalogs e.g. "You will get proofreading for 100 pages- $10". etc. Job postings are fewer on Upwork these days but clients are still hiring through catalogs. For any early stage professional on Upwork, catalogs are becoming important.

Good luck, I am sure you will find good projects on this platform.   

Thank you Aditi J for your insightful comments and suggestions. Indeed, I will try to create some Catalogs and get a few Testimonials from previous clients I worked with in the past. Have a good day!  

Dear Mam,

May I request you to have a look in my profile as well? 

Thanks & Regrads

Sushanta, you have extensive experience in accounting! I think you have a lot of potential to become a top rated freelancer on this platform. Let's take a look into some areas where change is possible:

1. For some reason, the profile picture looks like from a wedding or an award ceremony. Try to get a professional headshot when you get chance. https://www.upwork.com/resources/how-to-guide-perfect-profile-picture

2. A quick search indicates that "ACCA bookeeper" results in 6 job posting but "bookeeper" yields about ~3600 jobs!! Your title needs to change ASAP.

3. First couple lines of the overview section are important. Try something like "As an experienced accountant, I can help your business with...... ". A potential client is more interested in services you offer instead of your work experience at a large international network. 

4. PDF to Excel conversion - is that a popular service that accountants offer? I am not familiar with your field, but if it is not a service that accountants offer do not have it in your project catalog. If it is a poplular service then let it remain. 

5. Consider getting some testimonials from previous employers or clients. Fix typos in the profile. (e.g., Lecturer at ACCA - "a lot" is written twice etc.) 

 

Lastly, keep sending proposals. Good luck. I am sure you will find projects that you like.       

Dear Mam,

First of all I would like to express my hertfelt gratitude for that valuable words you shared rgarding my profile. However, I have rectified the small errors I had made which were found out by you. Please have a look to my profile once again at your convnience.

Thanks & Regards

Suhanta Choudhury.

Sushanta, cool. Now try to get testimonials from past employers (eventually) and keep sending proposals. There are several jobs in your field. At least 5 proposals per day.

  

Dear Mam,

Thanks once again.

Regards

Would love this, can someone please review my account - I have almost added everything in my profile but couldn't get any new orders.

Kashif, you already have few contracts on Upwork. Your profile is well-written. My only suggestion would be- Create some project catalogs e.g., "Web development project- $500". Also update your availability in hours as some contracts are hourly. 

Lastly, it's been a slow year with lock-down/stay home orders still going on in various places. Have patience, and keep sending proposals. I am sure you will get new contracts soon.

Thank you Aditi J, it means a lot will follow your suggestions as well, I have been trying this year hard - got few invitations as well but couldn't been able to make till the final position. Thank you again..:)

I would love to get a profile feedback.

Halimah, you already have a rising talent badge!! Well-done. You have two ongoing projects and one job done successfully. 

Was there anything specific that you need help with. I think you are all set. 

Thank you for your response. I just wanted to confirm if i was doing the
right thing.

Hi Aditi, Can you please review my profile, I had made whole changes, but still applied 65 proposals yet didn't get any reply. Can you please let me know what's the problem. I will be grateful for this.

After reading a few community blogs and threads about archived proposals I think that's how it is happening to my proposals. I have been applying to the jobs that only fits to my providing skills and ain't getting interviewed at all. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, I definitely need to update my profile more but if there's anything else that I need to know please do share your thoughts.

Hey guys 

I'm a new Upworker, and I've been having a problem with proposals. I think they don't show to the client because after several proposals with no single answer. my friend posted a job I applied to it but it didn't show to my friend so I'm wondering if it's a technical problem or what I'm really confused 

please I need explanation soon as possible guys and thanks in advance

Ronald, your profile is excellent!. A couple suggestions: Is it possible to get a photo on a plain background? The current one seems in a vehicle. Also, next time- smile 🙂 . Change your availability to hours > or < than 30 hours. You already have two on-going contracts, which is great!!  

I wish you the best. I am hoping that you will be a rising talent soon.  

Please visit my profile and advice me.
