Hello Fiverr,

I am a new seller on fiverr and very curious to know that, how much time does it take usually to get the first buyer message or first order. 

 

Please enlighten me. 

 

Thanks for reading.

It takes as long as it takes. What actions are you pursuing to make it more likely that buyers will contact or hire you?

You already asked this in another topic. You don't need to ask the same questions in multiple forum categories.

There is not set average.

First order can range from within the first day active all the way to still waiting for an indeterminate amount of time...

it depends on your effort on Fiverr . How much time you spend on Fiverr. You have to share it on social medias , groups and must send offers at buyer request .Than surely at the first month you may get your first work😊

The simple answer is “ there is no Avg time”
Order depends on many thing like your gig including description, sample, services, price and buyer request.
Make high quality gigs (as many as allowed)
Add the best portfolio
Title should be not too complicated
Use the most relevant tags
Select your price wisely
Use buyer request daily (use it for sending your offers to sellers not for your advertisement)
Use social media platform for your advertisement,
You can get order in few days 🙂

It doesn't depend on time! It depends on your gig. Make a proper optimized gig with proficient elements and make sure you're able to provide that service.

It doesn't depend on time. If you have beautiful and attractive gigs and Daily send your attractive request to buyers daily. I hope you will get the first order soon. thank you

Only Fiverr will probably know an accurate answer to this.

What you could do is add a poll to see how long it took people to get their first order/first message but it might be different for people who started a few years ago (when there was less competition) compared to those who started recently. Maybe it depends on different things like the subcategory of the gigs etc. Like has been suggested, sending offers to buyer requests (for things you could do well) will probably increase the chance of getting orders/messages, depending on the offers you send.

This is not sure when you will get client , your gig is on the way when you publish , you can get client any time and you should try to marketing your gig in social media.

There's no set average. It depends on what you offer, how good you are at what you do, whether there are buyers looking for the service(s) that you offer, how many sellers offer the same kind of service... and the last time I checked, there were almost 16,000 web design gigs on Fiverr. Which means that you'll need to come up with a way to get noticed among thousands of others offering the same thing.
