pcbisly Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Hello everybody ! Thanks for taking the time to read me, i appreciate, well, i have a little question, maybe it’s just me, but i reached Level 1 Seller few days ago, and since this day, i did not have gigs, just one, and it was a seller i already help.I would like to know if there is a way to continue to have gigs ? I think Fiverr help newbie to have gigs to help them to reach level 1 (like it was for me).Do i have to made a new account just to have new gigs ?I change some tags on my gigs, i made new gigs like logo, review in french, translation, i put videos on some gigs, i put a banner on yourfiverr , so, i would like a little help 🙂Take care of you, cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crcanny Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I have no sales suddenly either. I’ve tweaked, promoted, added, done a rain dance … nothing. I have no idea what’s suddenly happened. Maybe people are broke? I know in the US a new payroll tax and healthcare changes have taken a bite out of paychecks (at least ours.) It’s very odd, but I’m hearing this a lot.

blackfolder1 Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 Seems to come in cycles - it’ll pick back up. Slow this week for me also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiffinyjean Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 This was EXACTLY what happened to me last week. So I spent time tweaking. I ALSO did a couple differnt gigs within different categories. My most popular gig is for voiceovers, in the music and audio category. I also made a gig in the advertising/radio category and in the voice mail category. They have been generating traffic and interest.Last week I was so stressed out about getting so few sales, and now I’m crazy busy this week. Trust me, this too shall pass, and good luck!Kiff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatbeardguy Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 So, can we say that Fiverr’s algorithm and the way different gigs are placed in the search have a pattern, which places different seller at different times so that everyone gets equal exposure?

designhero Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Well, my sales is slowly picking up again. Hope you guys are too! =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemming2030 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Same here - sales went down afer I’ve got promoted to Level 1.What might contribute to this is that there are more and more of us here and just having a Gig somewhere sitting around isn’t enough anymore. If we want to get sales again, we need to start using guerrilla tactics, as a lot of Level 2 and Top Sellers are doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcaronor Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I’ve noticed this as well, I was on fire. Leveled up within a couple of weeks had a few more backed up, then nothing. Haven’t had a single hit in about 2 weeks which is strange. Also I’ve noticed that my ranking in the search has changed drastically. I’m curious as to why a level 1 seller with 100% gig rating is soo far down the list. Oh well, i’ll hold on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatbeardguy Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Yeah, especially in certain areas like Graphic Design, Logos, SEO, Likes/Followers, there are simply hundreds of people offering similar services.I really liked that Fiverr introduced the sub categories, it somehow organised the thousands of gigs. However, as more people sign up, there should some else introduced. Some that can offer sellers more exposure. Just an idea from the top of my head- instead of having a vertical scrolling list of gigs, different gigs can be organised in square filling the whole page. Then it’s up to the seller to differentiate from the rest by having really eye catching “square” … well it’s just a simple idea. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crcanny Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I’m getting some nibbles, but not like I had before. Ah well, it’s just a waiting game I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpt123 Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 I am always watching what my competitors are doing and how they are promoting their gig, like twitting, posting on facebook periodically, I have been getting some orders and day by day my sale is increasing. If you check this forums, you can get lots of other idea for same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
