Hi all,

 

If you are a new freelancer and don't earn money on Upwork within 90 days of your first proposal, or you choose not to submit a proposal within your first 90 days, your profile will change to private. 

 

When your profile is set to private it is not shown in freelancer search results but rest assured, clients are still able to see your profile when you submit proposals!


You can request that your profile visibility is reset by clicking this link found in this help article.

Hi, I am Sonia K. My profile was locked private because I was inactive due to my personal reasons. Now, I am active and started my freelance journey. Please make my profile public again, so that I will be able to work, earn my livelihood. Thanks

Hello,

My Upwork profile is LOCKED PRIVATE, how can I set it back to public? I understand that probably because I wasn't active in Upwork for some time. I would appreciate any kind of help or information on how to fix this.

Thank you so much.

Hi,
My account has been locked because of 90 inactive days.
I did the reset profile visibility, UpWork says that I'm visible now, but I'm NOT.
Since then when I click the reset button, nothing has happened, the page just reloads without any confirmation form.
Can you help me to figure it out with this?
P.S. (Now I'm active and have income.)


thanks.
