jamat222 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 I have been on Fiverr since 2014, for the past year orders have been very minimal although I have maintained 5 stars and a 99% positive rating.

If you aren’t doing the same on daily basis, then you’ll be left behind. Fiverr expects 100% of you every day, that’s why they implemented monthly evaluations. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been here.Having a 5-star rating is great, but if you’re not making sales then someone with 4.8 rating and a lot of orders will probably get more visibility.I don’t know your target audience so I probably can’t give you much advice, but here’s what I didI started asking from all my clients why did they choose me (optional question in the gig requirements)Based on that information I revamped my gigs.I added a video, rewrote my gig descriptions and focused on different keywordsI optimized my work process to deliver faster and I know exactly why I can ask 10 times more than my competitors.When I didn’t have enough orders on Fiverr I took some courses and focused on my outside clients.If you feel that you’ve done everything in your power and nothing has changed then maybe it’s time to focus your energy on something else. Fiverr shouldn’t be your only revenue stream. I work on Fiverr so that I can fund my hobbies and travel the world. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
