Hi Abrar,

 

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.

My account has been set to locked Private because I've been unable to secure a job yet on Upwork. I'll need help in having it set back to public so I can continue bidding, please help.

HI!

 

I recently returned on Upwork after nearly two years absence. I have been sending in proposals using up my connects and I just noticed that my profile was set to private. I just recently read that profiles that don't earn for a set number of days will be set automatically to private. Please set my profile to public again please. I've requested multiple times and it has been well over the 4 hours that you promised to change my visibility.

Thanks.

Hi,

My profile is set to private now how i can set it to public?

Plz help.

Cheers,

Hello Ghulam M 👋

One week ago I had the same problem as you.

My way of solving this problem is by submitting a ticket at
https://support.upwork.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003975967?request=t_private_profile

and this problem was solved with the help of the Upwork team.

Note:
It may take 24-48 hours for the Upwork team to contact you because the queue for this issue is quite large.

Hey Christina,

To modify your profile visibility from private to public, access the settings section on your profile. From there, you can make the desired adjustments to update your visibility settings. In case you do not find the option to change the visibility, I recommend reaching out to Upwork's support team. Their dedicated professionals will be able to assist you promptly, ensuring that your profile visibility is adjusted accordingly within 24 hours.

We set your profile to private because you haven't earned in a while. To reactivate your profile, apply to jobs and start earning.

When we stop bidding or working on this platform for a long time... algorithm considers the profile idle.

(meanwhile,  keep bidding and win the job) your profile status will be back to the public.

Hi Munazza,

 

Thank you for your message. I am pleased to inform you that your profile visibility has been set to Public now.
