Can You Make Money in UpWork?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 10:33 am

Yes, you can make money on UpWork. I have made over $1,000 in the past month alone. Granted, I am not a full-time freelancer and only work on the site when I have some extra time, but it is still possible to make a decent income on UpWork.

There are a few key things to remember if you want to be successful on UpWork:

Create a strong profile – This is one of the most important things you can do. Your profile is your first impression on potential clients, so make sure it is well-written and showcases your skills and experience.

Bid on relevant projects – Don’t waste your time bidding on projects that are not a good fit for your skillset. Not only will you likely not get the job, but it also reflects poorly on your profile when clients see that you are bidding on projects outside of your area of expertise.

Be responsive – Once you land a project, be responsive to your client’s requests. If they need something from you, respond as soon as possible. This will show them that you are reliable and easy to work with, both of which are important qualities in a freelancer.

following these simple tips, you can absolutely make money on UpWork.

PRO TIP: There are many scams on Upwork and other freelance websites. Be very careful before accepting any work. Many people have been taken advantage of by accepting work that they are not properly compensated for.
