Hello my friend,

First of all, welcome to the Upwork. 
And I am happy to see that you have questions. As they say the people who asks are the people who win!

Now, I believe your next step should be to visit Upwork academy.

And just learn the basic things there.

I am sure it will help you.

My best wishes.

Kind Regards,
