thebackpacker Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I started off pretty well on Fiverr, getting a few orders in straight away, positive feedback etc, then I was unable to carry out gigs for a week so I activated vacation mode. Now I’m not getting orders and have fallen very low down in the ‘recommended’ section. Is there anyway I can rectify this? Or an alternative to vacation mode that I could use in the future? This is the gig in question: https://www.fiverr.com/thebackpacker/proofread-your-resume-for-any-jobAny tips gratefully received! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ameshin Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Exact same thing happened to me. I was new to Fiverr, was making a LOT of sales then had to be hospitalized suddenly after a month due to some pretty bad health issues.I activated vacation mode for a week while I was away. When I got back I took it off and didn’t get any orders for I think about a week and 1/2, maybe more.After that people started ordering again so I think you should just wait it out. It did however cripple my gig from the ‘recommended’ section as you said. I can’t find any of my gig in search now, but orders are coming in so I guess they are out there somewhere!

thebackpacker Posted November 23, 2014 Author Share Posted November 23, 2014 Thanks for the reply! I guess I’ll just wait a little longer and hope orders start to come in again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex_angelo Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Normally fiverr orders are reduced in these days…but I don’t know the reason 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catwriter Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Happened to me too, just wait it out. 🙂 Or, if you don’t want to wait it out, add a few more gigs (even if you get no order on new gigs, they still give you a bit of exposure), link to your Fiverr profile and gigs on social media (without spamming, of course), blog about what you’re doing here… Spread the word, it might help.

catwriter Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Reply to @shikaru101: I don’t know if that’s the reason, but you state in your picture editing gig that you and your clients will exchange emails. That’s against the Fiverr ToS, you’re not allowed to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avadhikanojia Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Hello @alex_angelo and @catwriterNow a days really very low sell … i was getting 10 orders a day now 1 or maximum 2. I was thinking due to fiverr added the processing fee 10% extra thats the reason buyer leaving from fiverr. or dont know the reason … Hope this problem fix soon so we will started getting more and more orders.
