Your website:

As a freelancer, I have noticed that a freelancer should have a website by which he /she can show his experiences and look professional in his work. A website can make your proposal strong and increase your job-winning chances.

You should have 24/7 support on your website to get a good customer experience. You can advertise your website on social media and give your Upwork profile links there so you will also get high visitors to your profile. I recommended Hostinger Hosting and Domain because it gives amazing discounts and 24/7 customer support services.
