Hi Mohammad and Hemayet, 

 

I'm sorry to hear about your projects being rejected. Please refer to the email that our team has sent you for suggestions on how to improve your projects before resubmission of them. 

 

You’ll want to make sure your project is attractive to clients and catches their eye. Here are some best practices to create a professional project:

 

  • Highlight your project in simple, jargon-free language.
  • Choose professional images that speak to your work. (Don’t have great images of your work? Check out websites like www.unsplash.com that offer free, high-quality images you can use. Be sure to make sure you have permission to use.) 
  • Proofread your work so there are no typos.
  • Don’t use click bait, text-heavy graphics, or the Upwork logo/badge.

To learn more about Project Catalog, you can check this help article.

 

Thank you.

We are currently receiving more projects for review than usual. Please allow us longer than usual to review your project.

Hi there, When I uploaded a new project, after the review, I was informed that the project was not approved due to a problem with my account. I would have benefited if you could tell me what the problem is with my account and how to solve it. For your convenience, I have attached a screenshot of the email.

Dear Upwork,

I am a new freelancer on Upwork. Currently, I had sent an project waiting for approval. Unfortunately, it was not approved. I have checked the preview project again, I cannot find any red notes for an approved. That is why I send this message to know what I have been wrong in the project, and I can fix it as soon as possible. I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Bao

Hi Bao,

 

Thank you for reaching out to us. I can't seem to replicate the issue and can't find anything on your account that indicates why the project catalog was not accepted. Kindly retry adding a project with the help of the following articles:

Hi Joanne,

 

I have created my first project since March 14 (Made edits on day 22) and it's still under review. Could you please review it and see if it needs any edits to be made? I want to start earning from it ASAP. 

 

Thanks, 

Amro
