@fxbot I understand your drift, but you guys don't seem to get it. Programming pays much, yes, but everyone cannot be a programmer. Besides, most people here are not yet ready for the 5 figure rates. A few hundred bucks on a regular note will mean a lot to many of us. So do not make it appear as if it is either android development or nothing else. $100 a month from article writing gigs is not huge but it's sure better than being broke month after month. Besides, earning forex can do wonders in your psyche once you get a hang of it. Yes, I'm talking from experience as a "TOP RATED" Upwork Freelancer. That said, I'd like to offer a quick job to SOLID writers here who are able to craft 20 - 25 top notch 100% ORIGINAL articles within a week. The articles should not be less than 400 words each (but not more than 500). The topic is on various "link building strategies" wich I will supply. I'd pay #400 per article. Payment would be made every Tuesaday during the project period. PM ME RIGHT NOW IF YOU ARE INTRESTED. WARNING. EVERY SUBMISSION WILL BE TESTED. COPY AND PASTE WON'T BE TOLERATED. I NEED 100% ORIGINAL CONTENTS PLEASE. And don't apply if your English is not better than mine. UPDATE I've created a DEDICATED thread for the 20-25 article crafting Gig. If you think you know your stuff as in freelance writing, then hurry and show your interest right now. Here's the thread: https://www.nairaland.com/2635519/craft-20-25-original-articles-week#38560660 P.S Leave your email on the thread for a quick supply of details. And feel free to ask me anything on the thread. fxbot: |

Great job Mr. Victor. Just finished going through 20 pages of awesome work. Great job, I want to open an account with upwork.com but I don't want to open as a Nigerian. Are they other verifications they carry out on Upwork.com?' just concerned about the payonerr issue verification. Because on fiver, it is not an issue. Any way around this? |

eddie30: @eddie30 Why would you not want to sign up as a Nigerian? Unless you are truly not based in the country, I don't think falsifying your country of residence is a smart idea in any way. For starters, Upwork is very flexible but they can also be very strict when it comes to user authenticity. You don't want to mess with them at all. |

Re: Elance.com, Upwork.com And Other Freelancing Site: How To Succeed Guide. by megamindmaster(m): 10:46pm On Oct 01, 2015 |
silvoice: Lets look at it from this angle. When working globally, think globally. there are 2 major components in graphics and that is vector graphics and raster (bitmap) graphics. each have their purposes and uses. corel draw is a vector software, and not the only, or even the best. if you want to talk about international standard vector/print graphics, talk InDesign, not corel draw, even for logos, corel draw is a learner. then when it comes to bitmap graphics and photo manipulation, adobe tools( photoshop) is the industry standard. Corel draw try sha, but if you are really serious with graphics and want to be doing amazing banner designs, photo manipulations, logo designs, great flyers, posters and all what not, i think you should start quarreling with Corel draw and start befriending these other tools/software... hope i helped Grace! 4 Likes |

Geofavor: Chance in freelancing? little. a phone should be a subordinate. A laptop should be the main tool. try as much as you can to get one, it sure helps |

ubiquitousade: "Upwork has nine million registered freelancers and four million registered clients. Three million jobs are posted annually, worth a total of $1 billion USD, making it the world's largest freelancer marketplace". - Wikipedia. The fact that millions of people are collaborating on that platform each day makes it very active round the clock. From my experience, there's no such thing as peak or low period on the site. Though as a freelancer, without some insider marketing tricks, you may have slow periods when you're with little or no contracts. This happenes more at the begining though when you have very little profile stregnth. But it can be avoided. |

Geofavor: You can do a lot with a tab. That's what I started with. I still find myself using my tab over 90% of the time up till now. But I'm a writer though. Tab may not work for designers and programmers, or virtual assistants. |

Happy Independence Guys, I need a better writer than myself to handle a project I consider a Big career boaster for me(and for the successful candidate as well). is a very simple project but HIGH QUALITY is of paramount importance! I will first consider guys that are active members in this thread, then others. It's a book about Addiction in just 200 word per page(so it's a large front). Am willing to pay $20usd after work is complete then, I can add $5 more if am impressed. I will be helping out with web links but you must be very proactive, a prolific writer and very experience on this topic (Addiction). I hate requesting for samples, or sending one. But if you feel you can convince me through this way, then go ahead. Also to make the job more easier, I have an overview I will send to the successful candidate, this will give you an insight to your work. But for now: HERE ARE SOME TIP BITS A short book about addiction -Types of addictions -Identifying addictions -treatment options for addictions and the may options (these are just a few of the topics to cover) -The book shall not be a long book. along book might be too intimidating. Remember the intended audience might be and addict and they may suffer from attention issues -It shall be short in essence but not too short, -Thoroughly written covering mental health issues that coincide with addiction and how underlining mental health issues are usually the root of all addictions. PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH ONLY SEND ME AN EMAIL IF YOU ARE INTERESTED AND OK WITH PAYMENT AFTER WORK( No copy pasting) your work will past through copy-space. Original, well thought-out writing, remember, quality work always bring return clients!! Shalom! aprofessor@naij.com |

paschu:I'm a writer. all I've got now is my android phone. . pls what do you suggest I do. I love writing, but I've never been a freelancer. the 20 pages of this thread has really enlightened me. shout out to victor101, fxbot, stagger(funny man) and others |

Geofavor: @Geofavor I don't know about phone, but with a tab you can do a lot. When I started, I actually borrowed a friend's laptop for months, but never used it much for the contracts I did. Even right now I rarely use my laptop except for few heavy projects. Don't get me wrong, having a laptop is very crucial, but you can start effectively as a writer without it. PRO TIP: If you don't have a laptop, focus on submitting proposals for FIXED PAY contract options. With that you can work at your own pace without the need for Upwork time tracker wich requires a PC for local installation. The flip side of this is that you won't have hourly rating which helps to enhance your profile stregnth. But does it really matter when you're just starting out? Yes it does, but not much if you get enough fixed contracts fast enough and raise capital to buy a laptop. PRO TIP: Some clients might even allow you to do hourly jobs at your convinience and log the time manually. In this case the hourly contract is done without the time tracker.This is rare though. May not happen when you're just starting out. The point is that you can start small and grow big. Yes, I started at a very small level without my own laptop, but right now by God's grace I am one of the very few Nigrian freelancers with a TOP RATED badge on Upwork. Those who work at Upwork would know what it means. So please do not limit yourself. Your life can change pretty soon if you commit to pretty hard work from where you are now. 5 Likes 1 Share |
