Gigs got 200 views but just scammers?

[susanpor]

Hi!

I opened my Fiverr profile yesterday and I made a couple of Gigs. The issue is I only got messaged by TONS of scammers..

I got 200 views in my first 24 hours but I’m pretty sure those were all the “fake buyers” that contacted me, cause I basically have been reporting about an hundred of them 😑

Is there something wrong with my Gigs? Have I found myself in the wrong part of Fiverr or is this happening to all new Sellers? 

I’m linking my profile here, so if anyone wants to take a look at it and maybe guess what’s wrong with it, that would help a lot.

Thank you, and have a nice say everyone 🙂

some categories are invaded by bots that send messages to sellers, just report them as spam and then block them so they don't affect your performance.

if you have received 200 impressions means that your service could be interesting, but if you do not receive any orders it means that you have not been convincing enough your clients, my advise is to review the title, description and image of your service, making them more convincing for the purchase

Thank you so much Venonusa.

Is there any way you could take a look and tell me what doesn’t look “convincing” or professional to you? Any help would be much appreciated at this point!

If not, still thank you 🙂

Unfortunately spam and scammers are a constant presence on Fiverr for both new sellers and experienced ones. I'm a level 2 seller, I've been on Fiverr for about a year and a half now and I still get about 4 - 5 spam messages a day. Just have to be patient and wait for the genuine buyers.

Tip: don't report them as spam straight away as this will affect your ratings, just set up a quick reply to send to the spam messages first and then report as spam, I used to report messages as soon as they came up and noticed my response rate drop significantly.
