0 shawnevian99 Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 I'm sorry to hear that you received a negative review. I know how frustrating that can be. Here are a few things you can do to improve your rating: Respond to the negative review professionally. Acknowledge the buyer's concerns and apologize for any disappointment. Offer to make any necessary changes. Continue to provide excellent service to your customers. This will help you get more positive reviews. I know you can get back to 5 stars! Keep working hard and providing excellent service. Just don't take it personally and always learn from your mistakes. 5 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I assume that public review came with a bad private review too. Since you don't have a lot of orders anyway, I expect this bad review to be a problem for, as I said, up to 6 months. 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked your profile, and while I can see that you have one review with one star in the list showing the proportions, I can't see it when clicking on it or browsing your reviews. I also can't see that you have 4.8 stars, but five on average. Did something happen to the review? I wrote this post about dealing with negative reviews. Just keep doing great work for your buyers, and if the review is still up (since I can't see it anywhere, I assume it has been removed for some reason), respond to it in a professional manner. Explain your side of the story, but focus on the buyer and why they've had a bad experience. Try to learn from the feedback you get. Not every review can be five stars, and it's not supposed to be. 4.8 stars is still a respectable rating. How often do you see businesses outside of Fiverr with five stars? 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 charlsmcfarlane Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Some buyers don't trust a perfect rating until it's made up of a huge number of reviews. I've spoken to some buyers who find that 4.8, for example, seems more realistic and they feel like they can trust that those reviews are genuine, because – let’s face it – nothing and nobody is perfect. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 mandyzines Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 What's weird is when I go to your profile it says that you have 24 reviews total and 24 five star reviews. Yet, it shows a one star review in the graph and when I click on it..."There are no reviews that match your request." I had the same thing happen a while back and recommend expanding your reach to other sites while still being as great as possible to clients who might find you here. If you don't get any new activity on your gigs/account, don't be like me and obsessively update them for months. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
