A good piece of information,  I joined recently and found everything has changed.

a tough competition is awaiting me, although I am fond of writing and doing keen research work but not have space to show my potential

I am sharing my gig on different social media forums doing what is being suggested by others but unable to receive a single serious buyer. ...scam or promotional buyers are there ... being a new seller my gig is nowhere.. but I'm still hopeful to achieve my goal.

And who are these "others"?

sir, instead of helping, you are laughing 

Indeed.
It is common knowledge that those so-called Youtube gurus talk a lot of nonsense. Their only goal is to make money. They don't give a damn whether or not you will be successful on Fiverr.

When someone uses such phrases - it only means that either person is being misguided or this isn't their first rodeo on Fiverr, they had a different account before.

Then what about the new sellers? Who is going to rescue them? They are new here, and nobody even knows them. should they leave this platform?

if there is no leads then very difficult to survive

Don't spam social media with your gigs. Using social media very rarely leads to an order.

You claim to be a "writer" and I see spelling mistakes when I look at your gigs. Yet you claim to be "Fluent" in English.

Even your profile text and gig descriptions are written by ChatGPT. No serious buyer is going to place an order. Buyers have a lot of choices regarding the services you offer. They are going to choose someone who doesn't make spelling mistakes and doesn't use ChatGPT.

Your bio says you're passionate about parenting, women-centric topics, children, relationships etc - so your gig image (content and design) should reflect them as your strengths.

what should I do?

I am a new seller. I don't have reviews and portfolio but I have posted my sample work. Will it work?

Hi there, welcome to Fiverr! I recommend taking a minute to get familiar with our Forum Rules before further posting, to make sure that you avoid any violations, since this can lead to account restrictions and banning.

Our algorithm takes many factors into account, which means the results vary by user. Since the marketplace is ever-changing and competitive, we suggest working hard to ensure that your Gigs stand out.

As a new member, we recommend that you read through some of the previous posts, they have lots of valuable insights that will help you get started. If you would like to ask the community for suggestions on your Gig, please post in the Gig Advice section. You can also read through topics in the Tips for Sellers section which contains advice from experienced Fiverr freelancers.
