Hello Joanne
I submitted my project catalog since August 29 and it is still under review till now. It has been 7 businesses working days.
Aug 15, 2022 03:44:17 AM by Lee L
Hello Abhilasha, I cannot see your catalogue from your profile link. Write back to the support people and they will tell you the problem. The most common ones are: contact information and graphic does not reflect the work to be undertaken.
I did look at your profile and have some suggestions for you to improve it. I have been on this board (and elance) for over 10 years so hope not to offend, merely offer advice.
1) The first few lines are what people mostly see so pack them and your title with key words - in your case sell yourself as a SEO expert. There are thousands of wordpress "experts" on the board but few genuine SEO people.
2) Do not accept $5 projects - you will get nothing for your efforts after the fees and it anchors your rate down very low. $15-20 is an acceptable rate. Remember you lose about 22% in fees. People who want rock bottom prices are not very appreciative of your talents.
3)"And I am ready to work delicately or part-time on your project and will definitely deliver you top-quality work and results." is not a very good English explanation - try "I will deliver top quality work for you by working to your time scales"
4) Your second paragraph does not say very much. Talk about how your SEO skills can improve their SERPS, visiability and visitor numbers.
5)On your Why Choose Me tick list - add quality and take off the free virtual assistance. Quality is vital. If they like your work you can suggest that you undertake a monthly package that includes more SEO and some VA work - upselling and increasing your sales volume.
I hope you take the advice in the spirit it is given. I suggest that you look at other people offering SEO and see how the successful ones present themselves. if you then price yourself in the middle level you will show quality and experience and you can always drop the price a bit when you bid and show enthusiasm. I wish you luck in working on UpWork.

Hi,It's been more than 6 days of my projects they are still in pending. HOW MUCH TIME IT WILL TAKE FOR APPROVAL?
Aug 31, 2022 04:10:53 PM Edited Aug 31, 2022 04:14:06 PM by Faraz R
Hi Team,
I have submitted three projects and one consultation for two weeks. They are still in review phase. And also, I have not got any email from the support to notify whether they were/are rejected. All my projects and consultation are in line with the Terms & Conditions of the Upwork platform.
I am just kind of frustrated, why aren't they being approved. Please help anyone who knows what could be possibly wrong.
Thanks in advance!
