vickieito Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Wahoo! Congratulations @filipdevaere! I really hope the newbies read and learn the 11 points that you posted! This just shows how important it is to be a quality seller here on this platform. Quality trumps a perfect-looking gig. You also didn't seek Fiverr Pro ... Fiverr came chasing after you begging you to apply to Fiverr Pro. And you don't need any special boost or features to excel at what you are doing! 😊 I'm super happy for you @filipdevaere! Getting Top Rated Seller status isn't easy, but you did it! 🥳🎉 10 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was lucky that Fiverr asked me to apply. The Pro Badge is really boosting my sales. My Pro Verified gigs are always high in the search results. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, this is proof that a good performance (selling enough and keeping your buyers happy) is the main key for ending up high in the search results. It is all based on your performance on Fiverr compared to the rest of the sellers in your sub-category. 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the seller plus and Fiverr pro where the same thing, so I thought you were paying for Fiverr Pro, but after reading this post and doing some research I launched my own application. Thanks so much for making this post and giving us some knowledge we might have not otherwise known. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A small percentage of these sellers stop after a while with giving this wrong advice. Unfortunately, not all of them give up. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hey_webdesign Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 @filipdevaere Lots of sellers and my friends told me "Don't change the gig title after publishing the gig " If we change the title again, will it harm our gig ranking? Is that a myth? What's your idea? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filipdevaere Posted May 23 Author Share Posted May 23 @hey_webdesign You will loose your ranking for a short time. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
