👉 I tested Upwork's new boosted messages for a week. Here is the result. 0 sent. 0 viewed. 0 responded. Zero messages sent. My message never reached anyone in seven days. I bid the minimum, 2 connects per message, with a small total cap. Either that bid was too low to win any placement, or Upwork does not have enough clients receiving these yet. I cannot tell which from my side, and I am not going to pretend I can. 👉 What I take from it, honestly. It cost me nothing, because nothing was sent. So no harm done. But if you were planning to rely on this to reach clients, do not. Not yet. It is too new and too thin to be a channel. Keep doing the thing that actually works: be findable so clients invite you, and apply carefully to jobs that are genuinely moving. 👉 I will test it again with a higher bid and report back. If it still sends nothing, that tells us something too. 📢📢 Share and spread the word for anyone interested. @ethio_upwork 120·Sep 4

👉 Upwork added a new way to spend connects. It might not be available on every account yet. It is called boosting a message. Instead of applying to a job, you write one short message and Upwork sends it to clients matching your skills, straight to their inbox. You bid connects to sit near the top. 👉 My honest read before testing it. This is still connects paid to be considered. Same tax, different door. The difference: you reach clients who have not posted a job you are competing on. No pile of 50 proposals. The hard part is you cannot research the person. Everything that makes a proposal work, opening with something specific about their business, is impossible here. So it lives or dies on the first line. 👉 Running it this week with a small budget. I will post what actually happens, including if it is nothing. 📢📢 Share and spread the word for anyone interested. @ethio_upwork 240·Aug 27 The first two lines of your proposal decide whether a client opens it or skips it. When a client checks proposals, Upwork only displays a two-line preview snippet before they click to expand. If you start with "Dear Hiring Manager" or "I am an experienced web developer," you blend in with automated bots and generic templates. Clients look for immediate proof that you read their job post. Start right away with a specific observation about their project requirements. How to structure your opening lines: 👉 Mention the core problem from their job post in sentence one. 👉 State your practical fix or technical approach in sentence two. 👉 Ask one targeted question about a key workflow or project detail. Skip long bios, and portfolio links at the beginning. Put the actual solution first. Once you win the preview snippet, the client will open your full proposal and review the rest. 📢📢 Share and Spread the word for anyone interested. @ethio_upwork 241·Aug 26 Editing only your skills tags is why your Upwork profile is not getting invites. Many freelancers add 20 skills tags and wonder why they never appear on the first page of client searches. Upwork's search algorithm does not just look at your skills list. It indexes your entire profile across multiple sections to determine how relevant you are for specific search terms. To rank on page 1 for your target niche, repeat 1 exact keyword phrase across key areas When Upwork sees the exact same phrase repeated across your profile, it signals high relevance and gets pushed to the top of client search results. 📢📢 Share and Spread the word for anyone interested. @ethio_upwork 269·Aug 24 When a job hits 50+ proposals, boosting is an investment, if the client is right. Many freelancers see "50+ proposals" and immediately skip. While skipping crowded, low-budget jobs saves connects, avoiding every high-competition post makes you miss the highest-paying clients on Upwork. When a client has a $20k+ spend history, a verified payment method, and a clear budget, dozens of freelancers will bid. Bidding normally leaves your proposal buried at the bottom. Here is how to treat connects as a calculated investment: 👉 Verify the client first: Only invest extra connects if the client has a 70%+ hire rate, high average hourly pay, and 0 active interviews. 👉 Target position #2 or #3: Do not burn excessive connects fighting for the #1 spot. Positions 2 and 3 also get the exact same visual attention at a fraction of the cost. 👉 Only boost on 100% skill matches: If the project does not fit your exact specialty and portfolio proof, do not boost. Boosting is an investment. Treat it like targeted ad spend for verified, high-value opportunities. 📢📢 Share and Spread the word for anyone interested. @ethio_upwork 285·Aug 22
