Do you like the new feature showing how many times your Gig has been favorited? [ARCHIVED]

[Guest joethorn]

Seems very ‘social media’ to me!

[Guest adrifz]

As a new seller, it helps me see which gigs people like the most!

[pixess]

i haven’t exactly idea but i think social media promotion

Are you talking about “Gig Saves” on the Analytics page? That’s always been there for me.

Nah, that was always a cool feature.



Last night, when the new 3.0 layout was in place on my system, I could see the number of times any Gig had been favorited. It was pretty interesting, though it made Gigs with no saves look pretty poor.

[Guest instahoot]

Yeah its a pretty useful tool tbvh

[smartboy007]

Ofcourse! As i am a new Seller on Fiverr with multitple gigs, so it helped me alot to determine that which gig or service the buyer’s mostly love. :-j

I like it, but discarding the queue seems to be having a negative effect on my sales. I think people like seeing the number of items being worked on. It creates a “Oh! This person is super busy, he/she must be good! I want to buy from them.” mentality that helps snowball sales. I really hope fiverr brings back the queue, even if they keep the new layout.

Yeah, I noticed the queue thing missing as well.



Another thing I noticed, is if I contribute by posting in the forum, I get SPAMMED by other sellers wanting me to buy their Gig, whether I need it or not. My notice to all who like to do this practice is: If you spam my in box asking me to buy your Gig, you will be reported, and may lose your account here.

That’s the truth!



I slaved away for a month on Fiverr when I first joined, trying to get buyers. One day my order queue hit double figures after multiple orders from a seller. I never had so many new orders after that. Having dozens of orders in the queue was like gold dust for me!

Also noticed this yesterday :">

[ceneworksmedia]

Whoa! 871 favorites! That makes me feel pretty darn good. I had no idea you could see that 🙂

Reply to @joethorn: Huh…I still don’t have access to this. It’s probably a “slow rollout” like they tend to do sometimes. I’ll be interested to see what it looks like.



What page is it on?

[gemvehicles]

yes, it shows the integrity of your gig

Probably. I have it on my laptop, but not my iPad. It’s on everybody’s Gig page. I can now see how many times anybody’s individual Gig has been favorited. Including yours. Muaha!

[catwriter]

Reply to @kjblynx: It’s only on the gig page (the new layout), as far as I can tell. I can see it on every gig of yours.

[catwriter]

Reply to @kjblynx: I liked the old one better. Especially the orders in queue part.

[xpertmarketer]

I like it! It’s a nice social signal. 😉

[Guest paintrosesred]

Yes, It helps me to get a general concept of how many ppl actually like my work
