Hello Ladywriter, I sent you a mail regarding the market research training. Awaiting your response ma.

I just replied your mail.

bukkylois:
ladywriter and creamandchic I sent both of you emails...please kindly read and reply. I would be grateful If you do. Thanks

Sorry, i did not get your email. Did you use virtualassistprof@gmail.com?

Folayinka:
Welldone madam! Best is yours all over. Waiting patiently. Monday, pls come quick quick oh...lol

Sorrrryyy, it is not a fr.ee training o and we are not doing it here. You can contact me for more information if you are interested.

@Tranxo, eripecs and others that are waiting for the "Research training", my apologies please. I have been busy. I created a good problem for myself. I tried to know how Fiverr works and I put in some gigs with videos. Not too long, my Market research gigs started getting a lot of views (almost 600 per day). I started getting offers, i tried to increase my charges per gig (it is allowed since i work with minutes i.e. 20min/gig), thinking it will drive traffic away, hmmm, for where? They continued, it became serious and I wished I had trained you guys. It was that serious. I will take it up this weekend and finish the preparations, God helping me and by Monday we can start.

Thanks for your patience.

koonbey:
I think he means "chat platform."

I was wondering when I saw "CHART". I don't chat my brother. No time. The only place you can get me is on my facebook page.

Missle4:
How do u know if the job u bid have been awarded to another person, to avoid one Updating his bid. And hoping some where else

You will receive a notification to that effect from freelancer.com. Please don't wait for projects to be awarded before you bid on other jobs. Bid as much as you can.

Folayinka:
@Madam ladywriter, thank you ma for all the encouragements and also your prompt answers. You remember I mailed you as I was registering with freelancer and you've been really helpful. God bless you real good. I actually drew inspiration from you. My first employer is xarraar by name, I dont know whether your are familiar with him. It was actually 700 words per article. Like how much should article of such go for? And concerning the research, pls which chart platform are you on presently? Just want to have some charts. Thank you for always being there ma. God bless you.

The rate per article actually depends on employers. As a newbie, you can start with $1.5 - $2 for a 500 word to get reviews quickly and then you can increase your rate to $3-$5 for 500 words afterwards. You mean chart as in diagram? I use Excel for my charts.

Folayinka:
Hi all, permit me to say how market? God bless ladywriter and everyone participating on this thread. Please as a new freelancer, After a week of registration, I got a job to write 5 article at $5 each. The project was awarded to me by an experienced employer with a lot of reviews without milestone. When I requested for milestone, he told me that wasn't a problem, stating that the job is a continuing one but I will be paid after submitting a project batch which is 5 articles. Being my first project, I accepted it and worked tirelessly overnight in order to give him the best. I was uploading the articles one after the other as I was through with them. After uploading the last two article, I dropped a message for him that I would be offline for about 4 hrs for me to go to church. Since I came back from church, he had not pm me or said anything or even reply my message though I am still waiting patiently to hear from him. However, I just got another research work from another employer also without adding milestone and he wants me to deliver in 9 hours time. I accepted the offer and told him to set milestone. He replied me that until the job is completed before he can do that.
The question is, is it save for me to continue the work though I plan not to give him without accepting the milestone request. I hope my first employer has not run away? Thank you all for your time.

Hi Fola, welcome to the world of freelancing. As much as possible, i tried to make my employers set milestone. However, if they declined, but have good reviews, I sometimes take the risk. However, i don't submit the whole work, until i get the milestone. Now, for the guy with a lot of reviews that is still owing you, i will say you should complete the articles and wait for him to pay you and give you good review. But, I wouldn't advise you to continue to work with him. That rate is very poor, you can get better jobs that will pay off. For the research guy, since you are already working on the job, don't submit it until he set the milestone for you. When you finish, let him know and tell him to set milestone. I did that recently for one of my employers and he did not reply for abt 3 days, when he saw that i was serious, he created the milestone and i sent the work to him. It is saver that way. All the best!

okenzo22:
Pls which shud be opened first freelance account or payoneer acct.

You can open the two at the same time. It doesn't take time to fill-in the required details.

I want to wish everyone of us a HAPPY EASTER CELEBRATION. Give yourself a treat and enjoy yourself.

tranxo:
what are the fees?

It's been long I used it last - almost 3 years ago, while I was still in Nigeria. I don't know their current rate.

OkunrinMeta:
pls i need to withdraw. My payoneer card will not arrive until another 20 days or so. Even then, It will take sometime being the first withdrawal. Can i withdraw from freelancer into my payoneer account before i get the card? and that wire transfer thing, who has done it? The identity verification thing is..........my ID is expiring tommorow. That skrill or PayPal thing nko?

It is not advisable for you to withdraw into your Payoneer card before you get it. However, you can use the Wire transfer. I have done it before using a domiciliary account with GTB. It takes abt two days or so to get it. Nigerians are not allowed to use Skrill.

carik:
@fola and all the gurus on the thread.
Good to know this thread has impacted so many people.I have followed at a point but lost track due to some issues and school.
I'm a newbie on article writing and freelance,haven't done any job.
Can you guys share with me what you've learnt.
I have a system but I need to monetize my time instead of staying idle.(I'm an undergraduate on two months break).
Please any assistance or guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks

@Carik, don't wait for anyone to share with you. Read the entire thread, you will get to know all you need to start making money online.

Folayinka:
@ladywriter and all, please how much would freelancer deduct from your account for account verification and do they accept GTB account? Thanks.

There is no charges for account verification. However, i don't know whether they accept GTB bank. You can try it out. Wish you all the best!

chizzy86:
aunty me, am in Enugu o. Just went off for obvious reasons. Coming back fully asap. The husband has beaten me to it. Pls let me add this. Fear no one on freelancer. Just put in ur best and see God reward you greatly.

Hey @Chizzy, congratulations oh. You did not invite anyone of us to your wedding. No problem o, we no vex. I have been communicating with your hubby. No allow him pass you here. Go back sharp sharp and start again. The Lord bless your home.

chizzy86:
Wow and wow, @Ladywriter you've really done much more than i ever imagined on this thread. May God continue to bless you immensely for this great support. @ all, i was one of the first people she trained on freelancing. Like a lot of us, i initially registered on freelancer sometime in 2010 but got bored with it. I was looking for a "get rich fast" scheme and i felt that freelancer wasn't just it. Thank God for the day i stumbled on the first thread she created before Nairaland had it's little issues. Seriously, I made money and i wasn't even fully into freelancing as at that time. Well, am back with full force. I'll try to help out in the little way i can. Keep up the good work @Ladywrite, cremeandchic (hope i got that right, tranxo, e.t.c

Eeeeh Chizzy babe! Where have you been? How is ABJ? Glad to hear from you dear.

eripecs:
How is work ma? How far about the training? Nice day!

Thank you dear. I am preparing the Videos. I should finish it this week, then by Monday, we will start by God's grace.

Chidinho10:
alright thanks, does it check for plagiarism?

No. You can use this free tool for that . www.smallseotools/plagiarism-checker. It is very effective.

Chidinho10:
I have an urgent project I want to proofread. Which website do you use to proofread your articles? Urgent responses are needed please. Thanks

Use Google to search for it. There are gazillions of websites offering the service, you only need to get the right one. I use a software - Hemmingway for proofreading, i think it is around $7 or so. You can invest in it for your business.

tranxo:
Hello all. Hope we are all digging in.

Lol. Well he opened a dispute for his milestone, which I agreed to. The thing we tire me be say, he went ahead to mark the project as incomplete and gave me a rating of 1.8 claiming that my writing was below average. I was livid! Can you imagine the audacity? Anyway I have responded to the feedback comment but I wonder why Freelancer seem to protect the employer in such cases. Freelancers do not have a way of rating the employer when an incomplete report is given. Those red comments ought to appear on the employer's profile too.

We shall get there. Shalom.

There is a way you can respond to the feedback and it will appear on your profile page. So that other employers will read your own part of the story. I will try and remember the process.

I tell you, a trial will convince you.

Hey! You guys should stop distracting people here. I am not saying you shouldn't advertise your business, but contribute something useful to the thread, let people get to know you and then tell them what you do and they may patronize you. This is called Spamming! This is not an ethical way to do forum marketing.

OkunrinMeta:
350 words. Just needed to get 1 review noni. If he doesnt pay today, ill open dispute. The guy seems not to undetstand english so well and yet he is getting articles, using machinery

@Okunrinmeta, I sent you a mail, did you see it?

juliebest:

Great! I am preparing the course contents - it will be a Video Training to make it easy to understand and then we do live case studies on Research projects on freelancer to know how to write proposals for such project, project bid amount and milestone request. After which I will offer support whenever you need it on research jobs. Can you shoot me a mail on virtualassistprof@gmail.com so that i can send other details to you?

Nelton:
It is the same thing that has been happening to me. I have been unable to bid for any job because anytime I try to bid it tells me to complete my profile and I have done that severally and my profile is at 56% completion. I was advised by Ladywriter to contact the help desk but I can't find the help desk on the web page.....so frustrating. I have registered with fiverr which is a lot more easier to work with and i have set up two gigs but I have been unable to get any order. I think it has to do with the Nigerian factor. Anyway I have resolved not to be discouraged.

Eeeeh @Nelton and @GJulius, follow this link to get to the help desk -[url] https://support.freelancer.com/index.php?[/url]. you will see Live chat - click on it and then you can type your concern there, you will be connected to a staff who will answer your inquiries. Please @Nelton - remove that Nigerian factor notion - it is a limitation clause and it will not help you online. Strive harder and you will get there - lots of Nigerians are making money there - be encouraged.

tranxo:
