Clear answers for getting started and growing your profile.

Create an account from the sign-up flow, verify your email, and complete the short profile setup so your presence is ready for discovery.

Use a clear bio, a strong profile image, relevant skills, and examples of your work. Profiles that are complete, specific, and visually polished tend to stand out more.

Lead with what you do best, keep your messaging concise, showcase your best work first, and make it easy for visitors to understand your value within a few seconds.

You earn by presenting your expertise clearly and converting profile visits into client interest, enquiries, and paid work opportunities.

Payments are handled after work has been agreed with a client. Once a project is confirmed, follow the payment process shared through the portal or your client agreement.

Use the portal honestly, respect client and creator privacy, represent your experience truthfully, and avoid spam, misleading claims, or abusive behavior.

Keep your profile complete and active, add strong visuals and work samples, and make sure your details reflect the type of clients you want to attract.

Your profile may be seen by visitors browsing Fvdlance, potential clients, and people exploring experts who match their needs.

Go to your dashboard or profile settings to update your bio, image, services, and portfolio whenever you need to keep your page current.

Your profile can appear in the public expert directory, on your public profile page, and in places where your expertise is surfaced to interested visitors.

Sign in, open the expert's profile, pick a rating from 1 to 5 stars, and write a short review of your experience working with them. You'll need a verified email to post.

Yes. You can leave one review per expert, and returning to their profile lets you update your rating and comment at any time.

No. Experts can't leave reviews on their own profile, so every rating reflects feedback from someone else.

Yes. Go to Dashboard → Profile → Danger Zone and choose "Unlist me" to hide your profile from the directory while you're not taking on work. Choose "List me again" whenever you're ready to return.

An admin may unlist a profile that needs review or doesn't meet the portal's guidelines. While it's unlisted by an admin you can't relist it yourself — contact us and we'll help get it back up.

Your listing status is shown next to your role at the top of your dashboard: Listed, Unlisted, or Unlisted by admin.

Yes. Choose "Remove expert status" in the Danger Zone of your profile settings. Your public profile will be hidden and your account becomes a regular client account. Reviews you've received are kept, and you can re-apply later.

Go to Dashboard → Profile → Danger Zone, type DELETE to confirm, and select Delete. This permanently removes your account, profile, messages, and saved experts, and can't be undone.

Reviews you've written stay on the experts' profiles so their ratings remain accurate, but they're shown as "Former member" instead of your name and photo.
