Your profile score
What the number measures, the four tiers, the two ceilings, and what moves it overnight.
1 min read
A number out of 100 that measures how complete and how established your profile is. It is not a rating of your work, and nothing a client does can lower it.
The four tiers
- Foundations: the things a profile needs to be worth reading: a photo, a headline, a bio, a rate, hours, an address, at least one skill, tool and industry.
- Identity: the ID check, a confirmed email, a Philippine phone number.
- Depth: everything that shows how you work: a video, work samples, links, the tests, your history, your languages. Held until your ID check passes, and then paid in full.
- Working with clients: points only a client can cause: a first hire, a collaboration passing thirty days, a second client, a confirmed paid invoice.
The two ceilings, and why they exist
On your own you can reach 80. The last tier needs a client, so nobody reaches 100 by filling in forms.
Without an ID check you can reach 35. The whole of the Depth tier is banked rather than paid until then, which is what makes the check worth doing even for somebody with a complete profile.
