Hello, Freelancers I need your insight!

The Job Success Score (JSS) on Upwork is one of the most important metrics for any freelancer.
But what really affects it the most?
📌 Upwork Identity Verification Now Costs 35 Connects

If you want to get the verification badge on your profile, you must now spend 35 Connects.

📉 If your balance is 0 you won’t be able to verify until you add more Connects.


If you want help or have questions, I can support you.

The Availability Badge on Upwork indicates to clients that you’re available for new work, which can boost your visibility and potentially increase invites by up to 70%. It costs Connects to keep it active weekly, with charges based on your set limit. You can turn the badge on or off at any time, giving you full control over your schedule and budget. https://support.upwork.com/hc/en-us/articles/4403673074707-Availability-Badge

Hello friends !

Getting positive upwork replies is easy.

1. Don't sound like an AI bot

2. Open with a solid hook (clients only see the first line when skimming proposals). You gotta give them a reason to click on yours

3. Make it actually relevant to what they want

🆘 Upwork Tip: Save Your Connects 🚨

Before you apply, check,

Spend ÷ Hires → avg. project value

Hourly rate × Hours → long-term or short gigs

Hire rate → low % = low chances

Hiring history → do they hire from your region?

Reviews → avoid bad clients

Proposals sent → many = harder to win

Interview invites → shows if they’re active

2 min check = less waste, more wins.

📌 Key Lessons from My Ultimate Upwork Guide
1️⃣ Mindset Shift
• Stop chasing dozens of one-off gigs — focus on a few long-term clients.
• Long-term work = less bidding, more stability, predictable income.
2️⃣ Finding Long-Term Clients
• Start with small, quick jobs to prove your value.
• Target repeat posters with good feedback in your niche.
• Search using “long term” + your niche.
• Avoid clients who keep replacing freelancers.
3️⃣ Winning Proposals
• First 230 characters matter most — personalize & ask a question.
• Talk about their problem, not your CV.
• Use their language, show expertise, give time & cost estimates.
• End with your background + portfolio.
4️⃣ What to Avoid
• Don’t use “we” (unless you’re an actual team).
• Don’t address as “Sir” — use their name or “Hi.”
• Don’t copy-paste proposals.
5️⃣ Proposal Tactics
• Show understanding + ask a question up front.
• Suggest better solutions when possible.
• Break estimates into milestones.
6️⃣ Building Trust
• Match client’s communication style.
• Deliver small jobs fast & well.
• Be transparent about capabilities.
7️⃣ Profile Growth
• Keep JSS above 90%.
• Bring 1-2 outside clients to Upwork.
• Keep portfolio fresh & relevant.
8️⃣ Account Safety
• No auto-refresh, account sharing, or off-platform payments.
• Use time tracker, follow KYC rules, avoid risky VPN usage

📱 Upwork is not ignoring you
(You probably don’t know this trick)

In your proposal💬
- Focus on the client, not yourself
- Greet the client by name if possible
- Mention the main point of the client’s post (shows you read it carefully)
- Attach a sample of your work (shows confidence)
- Keep your proposal short (150–250 words maximum)
- Clearly explain how you will solve the task
- End with a gentle CTA that invites a response.)

How the Upwork Algorithm Works (as of 2024–2025)

Upwork uses several algorithms to match freelancers with clients, and they influence:

1. Search Rankings (How you're found)
When a client searches for freelancers, Upwork shows them a list ranked by:

2.Relevance to the job (keywords in your title, overview, and skills)

3.Profile completeness

4.Job success score (JSS)

5.Top Rated/Top Rated Plus/Expert-Vetted status


Proposal Visibility

Your proposal is more likely to be seen if:

You submit it early after the job is posted

You have relevant experience, badges, and keywords in your proposal

You tailor it specifically to the job (generic proposals may be deprioritized)

basically advice for writing Upwork proposals.

A well-written proposal written in 15 minutes… → It’s better to spend a little extra time (even just 15 minutes) carefully tailoring your proposal to the client’s specific job.

that directly addresses the client's needs and showcases relevant expertise → Your proposal should clearly show you understand the client’s problem and explain how your skills/experience will solve it.

will always be more impactful than a quick, generic submission. → Copy-pasting a template or rushing out a vague proposal is less effective. Clients can tell when it’s not customized, and they’re less likely to respond.

Remember: you write proposals to get hired, not get your proposals viewed. → The goal isn’t just to have a client open your proposal, but to actually convince them to hire you.

Quality and relevance matter more than speed or volume.
Congratulations Wubamlak! 🎉📱
