How to get your first client as a Freelancer.

Here are some tips which I followed to get my first client on freelancing platforms like Fiverr, UpWork, Freelancer, etc.
👇👇👇

2/6
- Optimize your gig so that it ranks in search. Do your keyword research. Look into the top 5 to 10 gigs on the niche you are making your gig in.

- To get some clients in the beginning, set your prices very low as compared to other freelancers in the same niche.

3/6
- It's good to have a portfolio but if you don't have one make sure you have some really good projects to show. In my case, I did not have any portfolio or projects to show still I was able to convince the clients ( will be sharing soon in another thread how I did that ).

4/6
- It will take some time for your profile to rank, for this time you will have to stay patient and work on improving your portfolio.

- This time can range from 2 weeks to 2 months. If it takes more time than your keywords are not good, try optimizing your profile.

5/6
- In order to rank in the search stay online, for maximum time on the respective platforms. It will increase your chances of getting clients.

- If everything is set properly you will definitely get a message from a client.

6/6
- Now you have to convince that person to create an order.

I hope this was helpful to you. I will be regularly sharing how I got clients in very less time on these platforms in the future.
