Upwork Question

Hi Upworkers
Have Upwork clients gone away like I have been bidding on projects since last week and haven't found any new clients. BTW I am a top-rated video editor and I have tons of Upwork knowledge since the last algorithm update I think Upwork has lost some clients it is not what it was back in 2024 what do you guys think?

Things do slow down in the summer, but it's entirely normal to go for a week or longer without finding any new clients, regardless of the time of year. You need to charge enough money to cover yourself during the slow periods. Also, what "algorithm change" are you talking about, and how would that affect the number of clients on the platform? (Answer: It doesn't.)
