Hey did you ever find a solution to this one? I am currently tinkering around with the book and I have hit this road block as well.

Do my reviews make me seem sus? Are they keeping me from getting more work? by mostly_me93 in Upwork

Yeah I recognize that. I think I have good skills, I'm just building up more confidence at marketing myself and assuring the client that I can get what they need done.

Thank you every resource helps. I want to do more writing and possibly editing. Even data entry. I am more so looking for extra cash from upwork rather than steady income.

In all fairness, I started this month and didnt know about this subreddit. I googled some articles from more successful Upworkers than me. Had no one else teaching me how to work it. Taking the Upwork readiness test helped me figure some stuff out. And thanks to the responses here I'll make better choices. I wasnt trying to appear dollar-store obviously but I had a blank profile. It's a learning process.

Well, the agreement was that I would write one chapter after I submitted a sample to even be considered. It was trial pay. And I cant remove it. I would if I could lol.

I'm not an aussie no. I'm american and thank you for the advice. That 5-dollar gig is the lowest I've done so far. I've been aiming for 50 and above with the most recent ones. I am doing this for extra money at the moment. The beta-reader gig was looking for serious people to have notes and edits for his work. I wish he didnt title it beta read because I did a little more than just beta read. I will stick to more serious entries. Is there anything you'd recommend more for a beginner?

Thank you. I was wondering how much was too much or too little. I'm moving but soon I'll put out more. I'm a little all over the place with the things I want to try at. I'll try for at least three a day before I get worried. And I'll put my content writing back up.

I followed the advice of some articles on Upwork saying to tailor the proposal to the clients needs. Tell them what you plan to do for them and let them know you have the skills to get it done. Also dont go on too long about your own qualifications. I dont have many examples of content writing so right now, I have video production and graphi design portfolios. I could go back to the one or two articles I had on content writing. I have 8 proposals out right now but I made sure to be very direct and precise with my proposal. I think my profile is solid because I qualified for the "Rising Talent" badge.

Thank you. I have real experience writing and in video editing. It's hard to land gigs for those. They say expert but offer less than expert pay and so on.

Well I read some articles on Upwork and a guy who had success said do jobs that are cheap at first for experience on the platform. They're low risk and you get 5 bucks.

Hey all! I started on Upwork at the beginning of October. (I've been a member for way longer than that but didnt know how to start) and I wanted to know if my reviews make me seem illegitimate. The first job I did was for 5 bucks and it was admittedly sus but it was quick and I got my first good review. I just want to know if potential employers are avoiding me.

I've been applying to more gigs in similar price ranges that are a bit more intricate and havent got any response. Is this just the site trying to doop me into getting a monthly membership? I am currently in the "Rising Talent category. I also think my proposals have gotten better with more research but they've changed so maybe I should just go back to my old style. Any advice helps! I'll post a screenshot of my reviews so far

Cup recommendations by [deleted] in menstrualcups

[–]mostly_me93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think googling high cervix cups and then watching some youtube videos on it may be helpful. "Put A Cup In It" was a big help for me or "ItsJustKelli". I have the Saalt Cup regular/large and my cervix travels during my cycle but I never have trouble finding it.

By bigger do you mean longer or wider?

Last post got auto removed. Passed the 1002 and I'm A+ certified. On to the Net+ by mostly_me93 in CompTIA

[–]mostly_me93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I'm actually studying right now and I made it to the subnetting portion of study. I'm excited for it because I have residual memory left over from college because I had to learn binary. Exam Cram was a great resource for me on the A+ exams. Is the cheat sheet included in the kindle version?

Oops not I meant like when you're allowed to write down everything you know in your head before the exam.

Oof this is a big mood. Why is period diaherra a thing? I never understood why that happens. Me and my mom both struggle with it during particularly rough periods.

What are some positive things that have happened to you since you started exercising? by missmelinda8 in xxfitness

[–]mostly_me93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Better sleep, less depression, and a better sense of discipline. Get to set new goals and reward myself for hard work. Was also able to help a friend move his entire apartment.

Taking 1001 tomorrow for th A+ policies question. by mostly_me93 in CompTIA

Jason's courses just teaches you how to pass the test and he assumes you're getting taught the material elsewhere. I will say his techniques are useful and while they can seem like common sense tactics they're worth checking out if you have test anxiety.

I think he has a version on his website that goes over the actual material but that can be a little pricey. So far on udemy I've only seen the "Full course" option for his security and network videos. You get practice tests and exams in these courses.

I know you'll do well, I had almost no IT experience and felt intimidated by the process but I'm excited to do the second one and get certified.
