[HELP] Gig disappeared from search after making few changes to gig

Howdy, howdy, howdy!
How’s everyone doing? I hope all are doing good!

So, Yesterday I was looking that where my gig ranks on Fiverr category (Programming & Tech / Mobile Apps & Web / Convert Site To App), and I found my gig on 5th page and last position and then I thought that I should make few changes to get better ranking and orders.

and then, I made few changes to my gig, I changed the title, description, pricing and tags on my gig.

and after that, poof! pixy dust!! My gig just despaired from the search, I tried to find to so hard, checked so bad and I failed to find my gig anywhere on Google and Fiverr.

and I searched on internet about this problem and someone suggested to wait 24 hours and then I have waited 24hrs but still not able to find my gig,

Here’s my gig: https://www.fiverr.com/negiservice/convert-your-website-to-an-android-app-android
My Fiverr profile: https://www.fiverr.com/negiservice

Please suggest me what action should I take now?

Thank you, and waiting for suggestions.

That’s a very common issue!

A lot of people see their gigs disappear completely after editing them, and after a few days re-appear on page 30 or so with many other highly rated super selling gigs, surrounded by gigs with 1-10 reviews total. So weird!

Some people get the rankings restored with customer support’s help, and I know a seller that had to wait well over a year before suddenly her gig was again ranked appropriately.

If you don’t get it fixed, I would recommend to edit your gig weekly. Improve it’s description and perhaps update gig extras. As everytime you update your gig, it goes through the editorial team (I recall) and they might have something to do with the indexing part, or then the glitch makes your gig invisible to them and that is why it’s not appearing properly.

Good luck!

Hi! That you so much for the helpful reply.

I think now I should contact Fiverr customer support.

I had a gig that was my top seller and made me to Level 2 very fast, it had 1000+ views per day.

I edited it and made some changes in description.

I have no idea what wrong word I wrote it got denied and never came back. Many people had set it as favourite. I lost all those customers, some were repeat buyers.

I made similar gig again but it is not able to reach that status again 😦

it also happened to me. my gig was on first page and after making a few changes, it disappeared. I already have opened a support ticket and there’s no response yet. my gig doesn’t even appear with filters so i think it is totally disappeared… so i am just waiting for support.

Try local filters, I mean based on location. It will appear.

Anyway, the idea here is that the Fiverr algorithm is always changing gig placement. Even if I have a gig with close to 8000 reviews, I am still on the last page, but this weekend I was on the first page. Don’t stress, you will get your spotlight. Due to the virus, a lot of people created gigs, and that means Fiverr needs to offer everyone a fair shot.

This doesn’t seem like a gig ranking issue but more like a TOS violation. If I click on your gig link, it says
“The Gig you were looking for is no longer available.
Here are some other gigs you may find interesting:”

So either the changes were violating the terms of Service of Fiverr or you somehow mannaged to delete / pause your gig.

Edit: I just saw the date of the original post, the profile of this seller doesn’t exist anymore either.

I am really feeling bad for this guy. His gig was working before but it’s banned now and I think because he shared the link. Ohh his full profile is banned 😦

The post is from 3 years ago.

Most likely the person in question violated the Fiverr TOS in some severe way or multiple times if the profile is banned.
