Assalam o Alaikum!

My question is that telling wrong country in your business profile makes you earning haram? or it's just a sin, how intense this sin is..?
No one will be affected and no one will be in loss due to this, nor I'm going to deceive anyone for money... just the type of clients I receive will change, they'll give me more money.

In detail:

I'm a freelancer and provide website designing or graphic designing services. Clients from different countries comes to our profiles.
Pakistan's market is too down in this matter. There are two main reasons:
1. Unexperience people, having no knowledge about website designing, take projects and mess up client's sites. Therefore, people don't trust Pakistanis.
2. People here (who don't have much clients) do big tasks in very low rates...

Now, me and a friend of mine work together (although have different profiles)... and I have more knowledge and experience in my work and I'm his teacher. I do the things for him which he can't do...
He has selected country UK in his profile. The clients who come to him give much more money.

I've selected Pakistan in my profile.
Only those clients come to me who want to get work done in a very few amount. Because they know that freelancers of USA, UK etc. will charge more money, therefore they come to Pakistanis.
A good business man who is going to spend more money doesn't trust Pakistanis.
Even I've more experience and knowledge, but my friend's income is 4 to 5 times of my income...

What should I do in the case..? Because no one will be deceived or hurt by selecting my coutry as UK or USA..
Will it make my earning haram? or it's just a sin, how intense this sin is..?

JazakALLAH

Just dont mention country in your profile.

I have graphic designers in my family. They dont advertise their location either.
