We've upgraded HAWK! It will no longer simply receive a query and respond with service recommendations. Now, we’ll also be collecting buyer emails from HAWK queries in our HAWK Hunt List to retarget them when new services are added to the same category in the future.
This upgrade will benefit two types of freelancers. In the next phase of targeting, HAWK will recommend not only top-rated services but also newer services with fewer or zero reviews, giving clients more options to consider. This new approach will especially help new freelancers who are struggling to get orders.
Honestly, most marketplaces focus primarily on clients, but at Serpworks, we’re doing our best to introduce more features that help freelancers grow by making better use of our client database.
This repeated email targeting will create more opportunities for our newer freelancers and their services. We hope this new layer of HAWK brings more visibility and business to our hardworking freelancers.
Last but not least, HAWK’s manual algorithms will continue running email marketing campaigns featuring random services based on the client's initial query, creating even more opportunities for freelancers to get discovered.
Best of luck to all our freelancers 🥰

We are continuously monitoring and fixing all minor issues and bugs on the platform, such as the recent layout formatting issue on featured labels. Additionally, we have upgraded our email notification system to ensure you receive all essential updates. Our payout and dispute management systems have also been updated for faster processing and smoother fund reversals.
We are going through a major upgrade. You might experience some temporary site maintenance notices. We will be running smoothly shortly. Thanks for your patience.
Update: Updates are now complete! Thanks for patience :)
We’re excited to launch Serpworks HAWK, a brand-new system built to connect clients directly with the exact Local SEO fixes they need and drive more sales to our freelancers!
How Serpworks HAWK Works:

- Smart Diagnostics: HAWK runs logical and custom manual algorithms to analyze their specific pain points against our service database.
- Top 3 Matches: The system filters out and delivers the top 3 precise service recommendations straight to the client.
Why This is a Game-Changer for Freelancers:

Gotta say Serpworks designs hit different <3
Finding reliable local SEO talent who actually understand entity building, local packs, and technical execution shouldn't feel like a gamble.
Serpworks officially launched our new Freelancer Vetting System to connect high-performing talent with clients who want real ROI.
Why It Matters:
For Agencies & Business Owners: Work with pre-screened local SEO pros. Every freelancer is tested on campaign case studies, schema setup, and proven SERP results—no more wading through fake portfolios.
For Top Freelancers: Get verified, skip the race-to-the-bottom pricing, and get matched directly with premium, high-ticket clients.
There are a few steps in the vetting process
1- The freelancer must be identity verified. Here is the Guide "How to get identity verification on Serpworks"
2- The freelancer has to request it by creating an account ticket on the Serpworks Helpdesk.
3- The freelancer will complete a quiz assessment consisting of theoretical questions. Once they pass and undergo a manual review, they will be invited to a 15–30 minute live Zoom interview with the Serpworks Vetting Team.
4- Once the freelancer passes the interview, they will be awarded the Vetted Freelancer Badge.
