Figuring out the right price to ask your clients is one of the first challenges you come across as a beginning freelancer.
How you calculate your freelance rates is important because your price has to be just right to win your clients. Because if your price is too high, the client may never respond to your proposal. If you charge too low, the client will suspect and think of you as a cheap amateur freelancer.
There’s no need to make this a problem. Whether you’re a beginning freelance writer, designer, developer, or a marketer, there are a few tricks you can use to figure out the ideal price for your freelance services. And I’ll show you how.

This guide is all about helping you develop the right skill set that you can monetize as a freelancer. Here, I will show you how to learn 5 freelance skills with the highest demand by enrolling in the best online courses to get started and master each skill.

This article is dedicated to you. My NO BS guide to what I believe is the best approach to getting started as a freelance writer, the right way.
I’ve been freelancing for many years and so far I haven’t signed a single freelance contract agreement.
One time, I had to sign a nondisclosure agreement but that was it.
That’s the beauty of working with international clients. It’s risky, but there’s no need for signing documents, contract agreements, or dealing with lawyers.
Of course, it’s the not the case for most other freelancers, especially for those of you who work with local clients. For those freelancers, a contract agreement can be much useful. But, you don’t need contracts for each and every client you work with.
So, when should you create a contract? And how exactly do you create a freelance contract agreement? Read along to find out.
It’s been several weeks or maybe months since you signed up as a freelancer on UpWork but you still haven’t had any luck landing a job.
Sound familiar to you?
Having an incomplete freelancer profile or a profile with poor copy is one of the main reasons why most freelancers have a hard time landing clients on platforms like UpWork.
Because when you apply for a job on UpWork, the first thing your client do is checking your profile to learn more about you. And an incomplete or a bad profile might give your clients the wrong impression of you.
UpWork, Freelancer.com, People Per Hour, Guru.com, are all great freelance platforms you can use as a starting point for your freelance career. However, just registering an account and filling it up with some random text is not going to work out well for you.
If you’re serious about making a career as a freelancer, the first thing you need to do is create a complete and an attractive freelancer profile.
So, here’s what you should include in your UpWork freelancer profile.
