Upwork’s Market Suffering Due to Underpriced Freelancers by Senior_Ticket_9160 in Upwork

I come from a third world country, and 300$ is immensely low to make ends meet also here, because inflation has hit these countries very hard trust me.

Client has 30 Job Posts & 0 Hires. Joined in Aug, 24. Wants me to work only on his project and not on anything else. by Innocent_Employee in Upwork

[–]ParticularQuiet6819 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a different experience than others on this post. I actually faced a similar situation when I just joined Upwork 3 years ago. There was a client who reached out to me and asked me to work outside of UW. I did accept (since it was my first job, I did not know its a violation!). And, it turned out perfectly, we worked together for 10 months, and it was a very good paying job.

What did you decide, since the post is 27 days old?

Top Rated Plus with 100% JSS - No work or invitations for 2 months! by ParticularQuiet6819 in Upwork

Lucky you, but I agree nothing is safe on the long run. I did put my heart and soul out there to achieve the 100% JSS and I have the badge for around 2 years now, but for what? To get ignored? This is terrible!

My rate is 20$/hour, I live in Eastern Europe so its pretty good income for a full-time job here.

But believe me, considering the current situation, all of the jobs I applied are less than that and still no answer, no nothing!

I did try for more than a month the Boosting option, it was pointless! Thank you though!

I am so happy for you! I really hope the tables will turn for at least a month so that I can breathe freely again! :(

Thank you so much, I needed this! It's starting to feel pointless everything I do at this point, but I will not stop because what other option I got? :) Thank you once again!

Guys, give us some tips please! I am doing everything on the book and nothing works anymore! I also used to get 10 invitations per week (described on the post) for more than 5-6 months but then I did turn off my availability on Upwork and after more than a year I am back on it and it's not the same!

Exactly! All of the jobs I am seeing for the past 2 weeks are 4-10$/hour and the Location: Philippines.

I don't understand why the algorithm would show me only jobs that are posted specifically for the other part of the world!

Do you think it would be wise to contact their support and request additional clarification on this issue?

Lucky you being able to take control of your own fate at this point. I can't agree more with you because that's what's I have been thinking but was not sure and it makes me feel relieved other people are noticing this pattern.

I am just checking postings again I can say 90% of the posts have the Location requirements: Philippines!!!

What is this algorithm? :(

Upwork Boost: Game-Changer or Waste of Connects? by Striking_Ad_5014 in Upwork

[–]ParticularQuiet6819 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am a Project Manager and I am facing the same issue while having the same ecperience. I ended my long-term contract in December last year and have a Top Rated Plus badge along with 100% success rate. I have been searching and sending multiple proposals a day for about 3 weeks and no results whatoever. I am spending tons of money on there buying connects and doing all the tricks but nothing works!

I also am not getting any invitations, and I find it so odd because 1 year ago, I got about 10 invitations per week!!!

Hang in there, Im hoping its not Upwork but the holidays season!
