klnpromotion Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 so many sellers are having thesame issues, but fiverr is not helping matters 18 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donnovan86 Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 Fiverr ranks gigs based on the buyer satisfaction rate. You had a very bad review recently, so obviously they pushed you back or even removed from search to allow others the opportunity you had. Deliver great work to clients from now on, and you will recover. It will take months to do that though.. 20 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somitrabhardwaj Posted June 16, 2023 Share Posted June 16, 2023 I think that the challenge is to manage your business on Fiverr. New to Fiverr but I think there is a race in Fiverr to get the projects and earn more and more money. I think if you're doing your job very honestly it will pay you more and more. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your case you had a pretty bad set of reviews recently. Fiverr also asks people for private reviews, which sellers can't see. Based on your public reviews, I can only assume that you got some bad reviews privately, and that pushes your gig out of search for a while. Because Fiverr promotes people that keep buyers happy, while pushing back those that don't. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donnovan86 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 I already said. You will be in the back until Fiverr sees improvements, so good reviews will help. But it will take a long time, because bad reviews can affect your account anywhere from 3 to 6 months. I also had similar problems and it took me aroudn 3-4 months to recover, and mind you, I had quite a lot of repeat customers keeping me afloat. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last month the buyer canceled his order on the grounds that my work was not good, he also sent bad project materials to me, so it was difficult for me to give maximum results. I haven't gotten another order since then, so sad. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you saw that the project materials were bad and still worked on the project, then delivered, that's on you. It's your right to cancel if you feel the request is not ok. So be more careful next time. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what's to stop a cancellation that the seller requests from still counting against said seller's metrics (in the same way the buyer's cancellation request seems to have in sahhart's case)? What we've seen lately is both Fiverr's algorithms and customer service seemingly taking a more unconventionally draconian approach 🐉 to sellers than ever before... not to mention that many sellers are probably soon going to have to weigh — going forward — whether or not even simply requesting cancellation might yield negative feedback....... or if even simply posting the wrong request to customer service might yield an instant (and ostensibly unappealable) account deletion. And even if you can navigate all the rules and exceptions and determine that your request is sufficiently innocuous to risk contact CS... remember the words of someone we both know well: On 7/22/2023 at 10:20 AM, donnovan86 said: Clearly they want sellers to know less, so they don't manipulate the system. So, even if everything looks perfectly aligned with TOS 📚, that doesn't mean we won't see some inconvenient exceptions made down the road (and probably to the detriment of sellers) if Fiverr keeps up this ill-conceived sellers-are-cannon-fodder policy shift. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have access to the data Fiverr has. I saw a lot of buyers on the forum that were complaining about people wasting their time, refunding to protect their ratings even if they promised the world and the work was AI generated, bad and so on. Fiverr can't afford losing buyers and a lot of bad sellers do lead to such issues. Also, the focus is now on rewarding professional freelancers and pushing back those sellers that offer a bad experience. That's why the buyer satisfaction rating is very important right now. Fiverr said that buyers can review an order if there was a delivery, so if you feel the requirements are not ok or the buyer is pushy, or anything like that, you can easily cancel the order. I agree there will be some bad situations even for a few proper sellers, but the cancellation review system clearly wants to flush away those bad sellers. Because they are the ones destroying the platform's image. 58 minutes ago, themarineiguana said: Fiverr keeps up this ill-conceived sellers-are-cannon-fodder policy shift. I think it has to do with the idea that there are a LOT of low quality sellers on the platform. And as far as I saw from my category at least, they are flushing a lot of duplicate, suspicious gigs, same with people that cheat the system, etc. In a perfect world, we wouldn't have them, but the reality is that they are here, and they bring the platform down. I just hope that if there are issues and buyers cheat the system and manipulate sellers, Fiverr will do the right thing. So I had a call with someone from Fiverr yesterday regarding the cancellation thing, and I was told that they took extreme measures to ensure buyer manipulation will not be an issue. And customer support is there for us, if the buyer is clearly trying to take advantage or manipulate things. Only time can tell. I've been here for 10 years almost, and each time there was even a slight issue, it was solved for me. Sure, there were some bad times here and there, but that's valid for any platform. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So be more careful next time. At that time I received the project materials after the buyer placed the order, I was very careless at that time and really regretted it. Now my order completion is 0%, what should I do to increase it? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
