Gig Video

Is it mandatory to attach a video on gig?

It's not mandatory but good for the Fiverr algorithm. Fiverr prefers videos on gigs.

Therefore, the gig video does not influence the algorithm, but gigs with videos have a higher conversion rate.

Though in the above link Trisha was talking about intro videos that you can now add on your profile rather than gig videos (that are added on the gig page).

But Fiverr does say in the gallery section of a gig that "Videos can increase user engagement by 40%.". Though that might not really be the case now that videos have been made mandatory in some categories and it doesn't say how much it increases it on average.

I wanted to mean engagement. Sorry about it! An eye-catching video is always good for gig performance. You can simply avoid it if you can use an eye-catching thumbnail image.

No, but Fiverr recommends using video on the Fiverr gig

Video posting will make it easy to understand many things in a single file. ITs good for buyers.

In some categories it is (if you're offering videos, for example). In others, it isn't.

Not mandatory. But it is better to use video in gigs because video attracts more buyers.

not mandatory. 
but it gets more impression and helps to get orders from buyers.
