I want to do some freelance work on Upwork. I’d start by picking up jobs in the evenings, then gradually shift to full-time once I quit my office job. I’m tired of the nine to five, I want something with more flexibility. Thing is, I know my way around a computer pretty well, everything from building websites to writing SEO content. I’d like to have a few accounts on there to keep different specialties separate. Would I get banned for that?
Nah, the rules there are pretty strict and they’ll ban you the second they catch someone logging into multiple accounts from the same device. Plenty of people just cover different specialties under one account anyway. Just make your portfolio a bit more varied.
Pretty much any restriction can be worked around, and there’s no real limit to how many accounts you can run. And you’re right, it does make things easier. Clients find you a lot quicker when your profile is focused on one specific area rather than having a portfolio all over the place with projects from totally different fields.

It lets you switch between accounts without worrying about getting flagged every time.
