I started working as a freelance web developer since 2015 . Earned only 8500 usd in 5 years
But I don't know what was wrong with me I didn't find any permanent client who will continue working with me for a long time. I see in my country there are so many freelancers who don't work in marketplaces anymore because they continue working with one or more clients outside of marketplace. But 90% of my clients were happy with my works. I don't know what is wrong with me.
I was a level 2 seller on fiverr two times on two account. But both accounts gone. Started working on Elance on 2015. Rating was 5/5 but when it merged with Upwork, My works gone. I didn't find new works on Upwork.

At last from 2017 I am working as a US verified freelancer in Upwork. Basically I bought the verified account from a US person. Currently Continuing works crippling. I tried CPA and dropship but not much profit earned. Learned a lot.

In the meantime, I started my graduation from science background in University from 2015 but still is not completed. I have now only 9 credits remained as retake. 3 courses. But I had to wait for 12 months idle(total 18 months gone because of re-retake). There were some rules. Exam controller says I am able to register but Dean and departmental head did't allow me to seat exam. At last my exam is in May.

In the current month I think I will able to earn 500 usd. All on the way. Then my plan is that, I will start preparing for the exam and seat in the exam. I believe I will pass this time. then I will prepare for IELTS and will try for Masters to European Universities. I am from South Asia

At 1st year(2015) and 2nd year(2016) when I started my BSc(Hons), I also started getting works as a freelancer. I dreamt that I am going to start a agency soon because I will get more and more works. For that reason I wasn't attentive to my studies. That's why now I am suffering for those retakes.

The only profit I earned that I was able to marry my lover. Maybe if I wouldn't start earning, I wouldn't be able to marry her. But in marriage, I spent all my saved money because I had no other way. Now I am in pressure for a traditional job. But I like living from internet. Let's see what happens. Maybe happiness is coming soon. I will try and try.
 
maybe you just need a break to recollect yourself. I am not asking you to sit idle but I would suggest you should rather focus on your studies at the moment because seems like this is gonna be your last attempt. Once you are done with studies you can then focus on freelancing or traditional job whichever suits you. Btw where are you from ?
 
Why don't you do a joint venture with any agency and work with them ? Or you can just a start a JV on bhw as well ( people get you clients and you give them commision after the deal ).

Good luck man :)
 
for a web developer, this is very little.
I hope you find new customers here.
 
why in upwork you got no client????????????????
