goldfngz Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 Can someone offer an opinion on this? I type my gig niche in the search bar, and my gig is almost the last one on the page.I am a Level Two Seller and I’ve been a member since 2012.I have over 300 orders on this particular gig.I maintain a high satisfaction rating (if you scroll my reviews you’ll see mostly 5.0 stars)I have a video in my gig description.In all of my past orders I’ve completed them on time 100%.There are gigs above mine with very low ratings (3.2 stars) and some gigs with zero orders at all.I thought that these things would propel you to the top of the search. That’s what I’ve heard. I am in a rare niche on Fiverr, but I am one of the highest quality providers in this niche. Can someone give me some insight why I wouldn’t be at the top of searches? I’ve proven myself time and time again. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk1000 Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 If there’s only about 1 page depending on the gig and the buyers find your gig it probably doesn’t really matter that much where on page 1 your gig shows. Though you could check your gig’s SEO and maybe check that the best tags are used and you could try using 5 of them. It could be they promote new sellers more.You should probably also removed the level badge from your gig image/video as I don’t think they’re allowed in them now. You could also make sure your gig image is in the optimal aspect ratio for display on the search engine (around 1.6:1) - though really I don’t see why it isn’t showing the frame from the video in the search instead of the image as it normally does that if a gig has a video. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have a level badge in my image and I didn’t even know that was a problem. I’ll check this out and see if that makes a difference. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

humanissocial Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Your whole post is based on the assumption that your activity and status is what determines your ranking. If you do some research, you’ll see that there are so many other factors.Don’t assume that just because you perform well, you’ll rank high or won’t rank low.
