or business and you have to motivate yourself to give your 100% efforts in this
job/business. You also need to have a strong desire to become a successful
freelancer as you can make money from your home itself. You can motivate
yourself from other top rated Freelancers also. Many top rated Freelancers earn
more than Rs.45,000 monthly from Freelancer projects and you will be the next

need to keep your fees or charges very low in the starting. After getting some
positive reviews and ranking, you can increase your fees or charges. Most of

for them.
Choose
project relevant to your Skills
This is very important to choose the project, which is
relevant to your skills and you can easily manage it and complete it in a
timely manner. If you don’t choose the project relevant to your skills or
qualification than you will be unable to complete it in the last and you will
lose the project with the bad ranking and employer also gives you negative
reviews. As you already know, negative ranking is very harmful for any freelance
worker.
Therefore patience, motivation, and strong desire take
you to the peak position in the freelance field. The better you perform, the
more chances you will get to complete more projects and this will give you more
opportunity to make money through Freelancer projects in the future.

freelancer projects. If you don’t have any good skill or talent than you can
try basic and simple projects such as typing, conversion, pdf to word and much
other typing related work and after gaining some experience, you can go for
good level projects also.
Update
your profile with attractive information and skills
Every employer visit your profile before giving you
any kind of project and it’s make a great impact of your profile on the
employer’s mind. So, before setting up your profile always make sure to make it
more professional and attractive and update all of your skills including your
experience also. Add your professional photo and other relevant knowledge
regarding your working field like IT/ Software/ Typing/ HTML/ Programming or
any other.
Complete
your starting project as fast as possible
Every employer needs their project to be completed
within the given deadline and if they get their projects before the deadline
then there will be 99% chance that they will give you positive review and
release the milestone payment also. You can take the help of Google to find out
the information for any new project and complete it as soon as possible but don’t
copy the entire project from Google because this will be called duplicate
content or employer may reject you for this reason.
Add some
bonus work in starting
If you want to achieve good rank and positive reviews
fast then you can also give some bonus work to your employers and this will
make them more satisfied with your work. For example, if you are doing typing
related work and employer ask for minimum 200 words then you can write an
article for up to 220 words or more and this will make a good impression on the
employer. You can do this in all types of projects as per your skill or talent.
