How do I respond to gig requests? And why do they all say the same exact thing?

[webjetter]

This is the first time I’ve made a gig request. Hours later, I have 8 replies. But they all say “Hi, I’m _____. I’ve been a seller on Fiverr for _____ and I’d love to do this work for you. I have a ___% positive rating. Check out some samples of my work here.” There is a gig showing up next to each one, but these gigs have NOTHING to do with what I’ve requested. I needed each seller to answer a question (how many of something can they find for me on the internet) but the responses seem to be auto-generated. So do I have to manually go in and send a message to each one and ask that question? That seems very inefficient, so there must be another way.



If someone can clear it up for me, I’d appreciate it.



Thanks!
