Workflow overview
Why this workflow matters
Supports knowledge capture and document intelligence use cases.
Find out exactly which keywords top-rated Upwork freelancers use in their profiles — so you can optimize yours for search visibility and client trust. Who's it for Freelancers on Upwork who want data-driven insights into how top earners in their niche write their profiles, rather than guessing which skills and phrases to highlight. How it works The workflow scrapes up to 20 top-rated Upwork profiles for any search term using the Apify talent scraper. It normalizes each profile with field-weighted scoring — title text counts 3× more than bio text, and skills count 2× — because those fields carry more weight in Upwork's own search algorithm. It then calculates keyword coverage across all profiles, tracking how many individual profiles contain each keyword rather than just total occurrences. Single words, two-word phrases, and three-word phrases are all analyzed. Each keyword is scored using a composite formula and grouped into tiers: Essential, High Demand, Targeted, or Niche. Results are exported to Google Sheets with coverage stats and placement tips.
