how to sign up for fiverr account set up fiverr profile
How It Works
It works as follow:
- You create an account on Fiverr.
- Once you set up your account. You need to create a Gig.
- You describe your service that you want to sell on your Gig.
- You wait for some buyers to roll in.
- You get an order.
- You start working on new order.
- You finish and deliver your order.
- Finally, you get some money in return.
But wait, when you are a new seller you do not have any ratings yet. On the other hand, when someone searches for a service only those gigs will be shown above in search result which have more ratings and recommendations. Due to this problem you need to wait for a long time to get some orders. What is the solution of it, so that you could get an order in a short time. Are you curious to know the solution? Yes, you are definitely. Just read on, don't stop.
First Thing First - Think Like A Buyer
Let me tell you one thing "How buyers search on Fiverr most of the time". Let's suppose, you are a buyer, you are in search of some services you need. You come to Fiverr and start searching for respective services. While you search, you will always try to find out a service as soon as possible, so that you could save your time ( Time is Money ). But the point is how would you save your time to find out a good seller when there are thousands of sellers selling on Fiverr. And when you find a Gig which means to you, you would like to contact to the seller. Now let's suppose you find one and you contact the seller, but what are the chances that seller will reply you instantly or within 1 hour? You cannot say anything about it. Hopefully, there is a work around of this problem.
There is an option on Fiverr "Show Online Sellers". Yes, this is the key of getting in touch with a seller instantly. This is the way most of the buyers usually search for services on Fiverr. I hope, you've got the idea what I am trying to say. There will not be more than 300 sellers online most of the time. Sometimes online sellers are in the range of 20 to 50. In search result, when you filter your search to show online sellers only, rating will not resist you to get a place on the first page of results. So being a seller, you need to stay online most of the time, so that buyers searching for services and filtering the search to show online sellers only, could find you easily. This is a first and most important key factor to stand out in a crowd.
What To Do Next?
Okay! you've got the first key point. Now what is next? Next thing is to update your Gigs and make them more attractive and eye catching. There are some steps given below to make your Gigs stand out.
- Think of a unique and compelling Gig title.
- Write a good description, describing your service and experience. And describe what you will offer once someone places an order.
- Keep your Gig's price reasonable and affordable.
- Don't forget to upload a video for your Gig, describing your service. Gigs with videos make more sales than other gigs without any video.
- After following all the steps above. You are done.
Isn't it easy? Of course, it's easy to follow.
Still Not Getting Any Order?
Still not getting any order? Don't be worried. Just try to stay online most of the time and keep on waiting. Explore Buyers requests by navigating to Selling > Buyers Requests and try to find a request which means to you and send an offer. Keep on sending offers to buyers and hope for the best.
