There are not many orders to see on Fiverr.

Hey folks,

I make music on fiverr as a hobby. I don't take many orders because I do it as a hobby. But I look for gigs on fiverr from time to time to get some inspiration. 

After a while, when I did that, one thing I noticed was that there were fewer orders for music and audio gigs than before. I used to see at least one order for the gigs I was looking for. But now many gigs don't even have a single order. 

Is there any truth to what I saw? Do you feel less orders than usual? If you feel that way, what could be the reason?

Thanks in advanced!

When you say "than before", what timeframe are you referencing? A few months ago? A few years ago?

There's the advent of AI. There's the notable decrease in the number of overall Buyers on the platform, as noted here. There's been a huge surge in phishing scam/spam messages that is driving users away (both Buyers and Sellers). There's also more ephemeral things like loss of goodwill and general global drop in consumer confidence

I've been selling music/audio services on Fiverr for a few years, up until Nov/Dec 2023 I had a constant daily flow of enquiries and orders. Since then it has dropped off substantially, around 5-10% of where it was.

I've noticed a significant shift beginning in Nov/Dec of 2023, too, for voice over work. I still don't know if my gigs were/are being indexed right, however.

I saw some drop in my niche (mechanical engineering) from Oct or Nov too. I thought, I am the only one who receive a few orders. But when I still see my gig in the 1st page since now. So, I feel releaved 😁😁

I have the same situation. Since 2024, there are a lot less orders than before, most likely because there are also a lot less buyers than in the past.
In August 2023, I had 48 active orders at one point.
It is now August 2024 and I only have 27 active orders.
My income has fortunately not dropped. I am processing about the same number of orders per month as in 2023, but the queue of active orders has shrunk.

I've been here for about two years and I've noticed that orders come in very strangely, as if someone opens a door and they start pouring in several at a time, but after a short period this door is closed and there is not a single order for many months. This is very strange and gives the feeling that you are excluded from the list, making you invisible to customers.
