Well, I am on Upwork and my profile rate is $35/Hour. Sometime I feel like I am not getting clients due to my profile rate. What should I do ? Any suggestions are welcome.

You posted in the wrong sub to get advice about r/Upwork. Here a few things that will help you win some jobs on that platform:

  • Improve your portfolio items, make them as relevant, professional, appealing, and impressive as possible;
  • Improve your proposals to make the best impression & impact, to showcase how good of a fit you are for that job (search the aforementioned sub for tips on that);
  • If you're new, work your ass off with your first clients to get the most stellar reviews possible. These first reviews are crucial for your success on that platform.

$35/hr isn't breaking most clients' price resistance. There are tons of successful freelancers with much high hourly rate than that (myself included).

Can you share your profile link ? I am curious to see

No thanks, I prefer not to dox myself, and keep my competitive edge for myself. The advice I gave above is plenty enough to kickstart your success on Upwork.

Thank you for your straightforward answer. I really liked it. Yes I will keep in mind.
