Hello,
Been using the Upwork search for a while now and noticed is not very effective in returning what I'm after.
Using boolean operators (even a simple combination of "AND" and "OR) and quotes to get a specific "keyword phrase" don't seem to work and therefore I get a fair amount of unrelevant results.
Could you please share any tips on how to improve my search results?
Thanks,
Antonio

Hi Antonio,
Generally, the search accepts operators like "AND" and "OR" but also Advanced search and filters should help perform more complex operations. Could you please share more information about what you're trying to search for so I can try and replicate?

Thanks for providing more information, Antonio. I ran your search and would suggest narrowing it down by using filters by category/subcategory. Like this for example.
I don't think "*" operator is currently supported but I am checking with our product team on that (as well as sharing your feedback.)

Dear Valeria,
Thanks for your help.
The link seems to be broken. Could you please resend it?
Anyway, i'm already filtering by relevant category (i.e. copywriting) but doesn't seem to help much.
Thanks for following up,
Antonio

hey Valeria, thanks for correcting the link.
so basically you used the category content©writing only. Though I don't think it is helping much.
Thanks,
Antonio
