qtguru:you told me to upskill and let you know, I have done that, if you can still mentor me I'm ready. |

Crumbian: you can use connects to apply to jobs, boost your proposal to the top of the list etc. if you're not looking for freelancing gigs, then you can just ignore them. |

What's going with Upwork? I hardly get invites these days. All through last month only once, this month is almost over and nothing. I used to get multiple per week, my JSS is still 100% top rated plus is still there |

qtguru: so sorry for the late response. You spelt my name wrongly, that's why I could not see your mention. That would be so nice. No luck yet. This whole connect thing has limited me. I can't bid for jobs anymore because my connect is exhausted. 1 Like |

Good morning guys Please I am new to Upwork, I created my profile recently but not 100% ready. I have an issue with uploading my works on the porfolio section because most of them are links and not video or pictures or files. https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~013a526c964e5a3780 This is my profile link đź”— I'm open to tips , criticism and so on @pocohantas @qtguru @Codedboy95 |

Hey guys, would appreciate a few feedbacks in this I got my upwork account registered to Canada but I recently got a contract offer and it is mandated that I verify. My question is, is it advisable to change the location to Nigeria before doing my verification or I should just verify and hope they dont query the location on my profile |
Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by N2B2: 9:17pm On Sep 25, 2023 |
tobiih: How could Upwork verify your account without verifying that you actually live in the location stated on your profile? It is advisable not to falsify your location or buy pre-registered accounts. Be prepared for a permanent ban if you try to accept that contract or any other contracts. 1 Like |

N2B2: I had a friend who was advised to change his location before doing his verification. As for the contract, I am already on a contract though |

Peterpan007: N2B2: Boss Good evening Can you help me check my profile and help with some hints https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~013a526c964e5a3780 |
Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by N2B2: 11:27pm On Sep 25, 2023 |
tobiih: Upwork will certainly be verifying your location. You may have been fortunate to slip through the cracks until now, but even without the mandatory verification you now face, all it could take for a permanent ban is for a suspicious client or freelancer to report your Upwork account. Upwork could also randomly request ID & video verification from you if any of their clandestine programs flag your account. It's bound to come sooner or later, so faking your location isn't worth it. If you're not in Canada and don't own a Canadian ID, it's best to switch back to your real location and hope for the best. 1 Like |

Peterpan007: Even someone who simply wants to give you free money will be discouraged by this profile. No portfolio, a poor profile picture, and a lackluster overview with no information about your background, tools of the trade, stacks, etc. Yet, you want to get paid $50 an hour? - Your face should be visible in your profile picture; opt for a clearer photo without a white background. - Take a look at how this Nigerian WordPress developer introduces himself and articulates his background, expertise, and offerings with precision: https://www.upwork.com/freelancers/~01cee44414235936c7 - Ensure your profile is 100% complete. It's not necessary but will be super helpful. |

Yeah because you only have 2 strikes, I recently got suspended, but my case was a honest mistake. |

qtguru:Sorry about that. What was the issue? |
Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by qtguru(m): 7:50pm On Sep 26, 2023 |
chieni:I accepted a fraudulent client, and stupidly refunded him, when the bonus couldn't be reversed. I thought I was being nice, but it backfired. |

Damn! Did you see any red flags ? How is that your fault. I got a weird offer yesterday too, I declined because I found it weird. Test a payment gateway with $50 however they were going to pay me $200 upfront. Didn’t smell right. qtguru:

qtguru:This is another key issue when dealing with clients. Some are just out to scam freelancers. I feel Upwork has a major role to play here. On fiverr, once the client sends a suspicious message to a freelancer, they instantly block the account of the client most times. Meaning the client can't message anyone on the forum. |

Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by chieni(f): 8:48pm On Sep 30, 2023 |
please oh how are you all coping with this connect. The fact you are limited and can't send proposals. |
Re: Upwork Thread (Questions/Help/Advice) by N2B2: 3:51am On Oct 01, 2023 |
chieni: The secret to getting client views remains the same IMO: write good proposals (& submit them early) and work on your profile regularly. The silver lining in this connect madness is that some clients know they will get many trashy or AI-generated proposals. So, they'll sift through the noise for the standouts. Don't be discouraged. 2 Likes |
