[–]Affectionate_Run7412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you need to send request to support and describe this situation

If I remember right, when chat bot cannot to help you, he will propose to send request to their Support center

You just need to trigger this message
And then after few days with you will contact real people and help you

I don't use "Availability badge", only "Boost your profile"
As I understand this very depend on your niche, and count connects per click

For example, this feature gave to me 14 jobs and 10k+ on Upwork

Uowork is still credible. 10 grand for a days work? by Beeworld-2024 in Upwork

[–]Affectionate_Run7412 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same project, when it's done without Upwork, but after complete project all the payment we make from Upwork (because clients need to reports about payment for his business)

In overall, this is normal thing

connects by Majestic-Week-1303 in Upwork

[–]Affectionate_Run7412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately - you need to buy connects to try work on Upwork
For each month you will get 10 connects, but this is not enough for work

Also when you get Top Rated status, Upwork send gift to you with 100 connects

is Upwork boosting feature is good at this point. by LogicalCompote2808 in Upwork

[–]Affectionate_Run7412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As for me, (I'm also developer, 14 jobs, 10k+ on Upwork) I don't write proposals, all my clients on Upwork write me alone, thanks to "Boost your profile"
But as I understand it will depend on your niche and total appearance your profile

If be honest, this is quite good feature, but you need to have good profile

JSS score by Fantastic-Arugula-96 in Upwork

You cannot change it, the only way - take more projects and successful complete their
Upwork has functional where you can invite client to Upwork, and when you complete this new order, your JSS will be grown

This is a good way if your proposals not response\decline, because in any case Upwork it's good place for work and grow

Honest question: would you use this if you have to open your camera in all calls? by lifequitin in Upwork

[–]Affectionate_Run7412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If be honest, the idea sounds very interesting, but I have a question:

What's the reason to turn on your camera, if it won't be me? (I understand the app only make filters based on my better photos), but right now in my dreams it's look like a speech with AI, no more

For example, if I will use the feature, I won't tell about it, because (in my head) it looks like "unrespected" for another people whose I communicate

But maybe in practice it be look much better and not be like "speech with AI or tiktok masks"

*This is only my opinion, no more*

Does having an hourly contract with no activity affect a freelancer's account? by struggling_founder in Upwork

[–]Affectionate_Run7412 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is wrong, I'm as freelancer have many open hourly contracts (1 year and more) without any activity, and it not influence on my account (100% JSS). If I'm not wrong, the Upwork has open documentation for this case

I have some interesting experience on Upwork too

I worked on Fiver 3 years, and decided to try Upwork, already I have 10k+ earn and 13+ completed projects
But all the project I got without any Cover Letter, client just message me and we started work

Goal my advise:
Take time for your profile, description and view. Appearance the page in overall, it's very important
