rameesha_gul Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 why have Sales dropped on fiverr since they changed their Server? Is it their Algorithm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gina_riley2 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 What makes you think sales have dropped?I’ve read sellers are having a record breaking month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
florindeloiu Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 What makes you think sales have dropped?I’ve read sellers are having a record breaking month.Sales have indeed dropped hard in “Logo Design” category. I have talked to other sellers and they are experiencing a massive drop in sales too.I barely receive orders now. There are only a few sellers that are having success in Logo Design category as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gina_riley2 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 If so, people won’t stop buying because of algorithm, they will just buy from another seller; therefore, 5rs bottom line will remain the same.Customer satisfaction, on the other hand, can go up or down depending on the quality of the sellers that are promoted.

Lots of sellers are stealing from the internet and selling those items to their clients. Although, this is where it gets weird. There is a large number of sellers that are having success by doing the same, while others that actually provide original and custom work do not get any exposure from the platform.

I’ve been the victim of stolen logos and clip arts as well. I first though the seller accidentally gave me her kids drawing. 😦I’ve pretty much given up on getting a logo designed on 5r. I’m afraid to hire a Pro seller for a logo. Getting ripped off a $45 logo is one thing, getting ripped a $1000 on a Pro Seller will make me go 🍌 . Oh, I would definitely lose it.

Oh, I would definitely lose it.I do not think that the Pro Sellers use clip arts or stolen logos since they are investigated before, but you never know.Although, there are still hundreds of designers that do a better job than ProSellers and do not have those exorbitant prices.I think that the Pro Sellers under Logo Design category are way too overpriced. From $1500-$2500 for one logo version with 2-3 revisions? That’s a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssj1236 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 October 31 is Halloween. So yeah, maybe that’s the reason. I’m in the same boat though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All he did was change the colors. It’s a very simplistic logo - three color, 2 dimension!There may be more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My cousins living in the states sent me some pics from their neighborhood, people looked really pumped for it. I think it’s same for Canada and Japan.
