You're not guaranteed to ever get an order and honestly in a fair market system you probably shouldn't. A lot of people pay fiverr specifically to promote their gigs and rightly so they should be shown before you as they pay for that service specifically. Even if that wasn't the case think about this objectively, would you choose you over someone who has an account with hundreds of glowing reviews and is trusted on the platform? Whether or not you can do the work it's likely your field is already crowded and you as the new person is a risk that no one should be expected to take when they're are choices that are much safer when it comes to knowing they can get a quality product and experience for their hard earned money.

Thanks for your contribution Dereck. Of course you're right.

However, to stand out from the crowd the first step is to let people know you exist... 😉

Sure, if you have to be on the platform. Just be aware it's not easy money and it's way more likely that you won't succeed on the platform in the current way the Fiverr system is. I don't say this to be mean it's just that every category is overflowing with seasoned sellers that are offering everything a new person would and more.

It's been a month, and I haven't received any orders. However, I have seen improvements in impressions without any clicks, so I guess it takes more than a month from my point of view.
