Popular Post Shiran.M Posted May 16 Popular Post Share Posted May 16 Non-visual Gigs (i.e. SEO, Software Development, Translation, etc.) are getting a bit of a facelift. We recently upgraded the appearance of these Gigs to improve the buyer browsing experience. Here’s what’s new: 1) More focus on sellers (that’s you!) with name and profile picture in the spotlight 2) Removal of Gig card gallery 3) Added section showing elements relevant by service (so that means industries for SEO, skills for Software Development, and languages for Translation, etc.) These changes enable buyers to get more relevant info about Gigs and sellers upfront, compare better, and start orders faster. Right now, only a select group of buyers can view the new experience, but soon it will be open to all buyers. If you’ve got a Gig in a non-visual service, make sure your info (industries, skills, languages, etc.) is up-to-date to take full advantage of these changes.

shemanta16 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Yea, I also noticed this feature on some top-rated seller's gigs. To be honest, it's not that user-friendly design. They made gig images small. Thought we are used to our old style but still it looks odd and seems like nothing is in its place. 29 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anfalzafar Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Thats one of the worst update by fiverr , its not user friendly for buyers even . Many of buyers will ask me in inbox do you offer only two industries so first i have to explain them please scroll and check other as well. Second our gig images were explainer of our services , i think gig images should appear in SEO services. I think its not a good update 20 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
numan_seo Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 This update actually very bad for both sellers and buyers as well. Buyers don't have time to read through the generic title of a gig and decide. Removing gig images would make it much harder and the buying process more hideous for buyers. They would need to read through all the text in the title and there would not be any differentiation in the gigs. Gig image serves as the brand image of the gig which we sellers optimize for CTR and conversion. Gig image serves as the first contact point and attention-grabbing tool which help buyers to choose the right service for their needs. If buyer has to read through the similar titles of 50 sellers offering similar service, it would obviously confuse them. Having a gig image is an essential part of gig and it should not be removed. 20 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will repeat it again and again. This is the most awful update ever. You removed the most crucial part for the customers. You asked sellers to create videos and write detailed descriptions to avoid confusion among customers. And now, you show the potential customers our profile description (what for???). The process has to be simple: Open gig page > Get relevant info > Order. Edited May 24 by vovkaslovesnyy 12 5 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
najmulnirjar Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 I agree with @vovkaslovesnyy completely and others disagree with this update. Removal of the gig card gallery will make clients confused and bored. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point. I am also very confused. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vovkaslovesnyy Posted Sunday at 06:21 PM Share Posted Sunday at 06:21 PM I've just seen this update live (probably because I am traveling in a region, where it's available). How can this be better than the list of gigs with videos and images? I will never understand it (as well as the one-way community approach, when you have to eat what you are given). 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bestbooks2020 Posted Monday at 06:46 AM Share Posted Monday at 06:46 AM Design is Business? In this case, I don't think so! Looks like the wrong decision to switch to that design! It does not stress the gig and confuses both the client and the seller. I don't see how 5er will profit from this change either, on the contrary! And then, perhaps the old design, which is smarter & more straightforward will make a comeback? The current one is just a lose lose situation. I am sure most of us agree. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
