As a freelancer, your UpWork profile is one of the most important tools you have to market your services and attract clients. A key part of your profile is your responsiveness score, which gives clients an idea of how quickly you respond to messages and how often you’re online.
But what exactly is your responsiveness score, and where can clients find it?
Your responsiveness score is a measure of how quickly you respond to messages from clients and how often you’re online. It’s represented as a percentage, and you can find it on your profile under the “Overview” section.
Clients can use your responsiveness score to gauge how quickly you’ll respond to their messages and whether or not you’re likely to be available when they need you. If you have a high responsiveness score, it’s a good indication that you’re reliable and quick to communicate, which can make clients more likely to hire you.
There are a few things you can do to improve your responsiveness score. First, make sure you’re logging into UpWork regularly so that clients can see that you’re active.
Second, when you do get messages from clients, try to respond as quickly as possible. And finally, if you’re going to be away from your computer for an extended period of time, let clients know in advance so they don’t think you’re ignoring their messages.
By following these tips, you can improve your responsiveness score and show potential clients that you’re a reliable freelancer who is quick to communicate.
