asi_9207 Posted June 30, 2015 Share Posted June 30, 2015 Hello Everyone,I’m a web and graphics designer, i have 9 gigs on my profile related to graphics, not a single one of web. And i got level two without sharing my gigs or profile on facebook and other social media. But Now i want to increase my business over fiverr and other online freelancing websites. As i have 9 gigs already and going to upload 3 or 4 more in few days. And now i also want to share it on facebook, twitter and pinterest. My question is from everyone here who is sharing their fiverr business on Social media, Should i share my each gig individually on social media or single link of my profile?ThanksAsif 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitehatseo10 Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 I share my gigs each day, but I get just a few sales, sometimes I have days when I get no sales. I suppose that sharing on social media is just the Fiverr strategy to maintain an important presence on main social websites and to increase it’s traffic from that kind of websites and search engines. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b240_bn Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I think, sharing gigs on social media is best way to earn buyers attention. I will do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kasijus Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I don’t think sharing on social websites has any effect on increasing sales. What does it look like? Someone sees your gig on Facebook, and says: “Hey, I might buy a logo today!” I don’t think so…If people need something, they know where to look for it, and they will do it WHEN they actually need it. Social media is suitable for large companies, or promoting events and similar, but I don’t really see anything useful for us, freelancers.Potential clients nowadays won’t even search for freelancers on google, they will visit freelance websites directly.

Obviously, i don’t think there’s any benefits in sharing gigs on social media, as most people know where to look for things when they need it. If at all there’s advantage in sharing gigs on social media, only a few category would benefit from it, and that could be Graphics, Web Design, and maybe Programming related services.

dtongsports Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Both. Share your profile page and your gigs individually. I get a lot of sales from social media and post often. Include keywords and hashtags to increase your reach beyond your followers and also interact with your followers letting them know about your services. DO NOT SPAM other twitter users who aren’t following you or you risk getting your URL marked as spam. Play by the rules, be ethical, and create a file in your ‘notepad’ to keep your tweets/posts for easy copy and pasting so you don’t have to create a new message everytime. 🙂Good luck! Those who aren’t using social media, just know that twitter has over 250 Million users alone. Not all of those people are going to see your gigs, but that’s a heck of an audience to try to reach! 🙂DTong (TRS) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtongsports Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Reply to @seofanatics: you are wrong my friend. Numerous benefits to posting on social media including SEO for your own gig as Facebook, linkedIn, Google+, and twitter are ALL indexed by google.Not everyone knows about freelancing or even where to find one. They are looking for services and there are MILLIONS of people searching for services on Social media, more than are searching on Fiverr I promise you that.DTong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtongsports Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Reply to @kasijus: Wrong. People aren’t searching for FREELANCERS, they are searching for a service to get done. If they come across a freelancer, they may or may not purchase based on that fact. I have numerous buyers tell me they found me on Twitter or LinkedIn or Facebook, so I would adjust your perception and start sharing your gigs. The problem is that people don’t want to take the time to build up their networks, they expect everyone to come to them and for Fiverr to bring them traffic.Some of my Largest orders have come from sharing with my social network, so don’t jump to conclusions and sell yourself short. It takes literally seconds to share a gig, and if your timing is right, you will land more sales. Period.DTong (TRS) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasijus Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Reply to @dtongsports: That’s right, they are searching for services, but that’s not the point, the point is that they will go to freelance websites directly, anyway. And I am not talking only about Fiverr, I am talking about all kinds of websites, mostly those where they can post specific projects, and let freelancers apply.Anyway, I’m glad you got lucky, but I’m pretty sure it doesn’t work in most cases for others.

asi_9207 Posted July 20, 2015 Author Share Posted July 20, 2015 Reply to @dtongsports: Thanks DTong, after sharing on social media, orders are coming on my gigs and now i’m on my business. Yes it’s true that people don’t come directly to your links but they like that freelancer should ask them about their problems, everybody has a busy life so they want everything on their doorstep. Thanks again.Yes you are right, Good luck to those who are not using social media. 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecoverwarrior Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 Reply to @dtongsports: I am a new seller here on fiverr and am on the graphic niche. my question is that how do i share my profile on social network to get effective response. i will be glad if you could point me in the right direction. thank you in anticipation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtongsports Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Reply to @ayeshayasin: The only way to build your social networks the right way, is to participate, interact, and ask people to follow you. Paying for followers are paid social media promotion is ineffective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asi_9207 Posted July 26, 2015 Author Share Posted July 26, 2015 Reply to @owencurley: yes ofcourse you should use social media to get more impressions and click so it’ll rank up your gigs on search page and you’ll definitely get orders.

asi_9207 Posted July 26, 2015 Author Share Posted July 26, 2015 Reply to @ayeshayasin: Yes, you can use Paid campaign on facebook, purchase coupons and put your profile or gig as ad on whole facebook, or hire any freelancer who could posts your profile links to multiple facebook groups or can send personal message to people.

mariuscassius Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Ok, let’s say I decide to share my gig on FB. Should I create a fan page of my service or should I share my gig on facebook groups? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfabs2business Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I use Tweet Eye software to post my giggs to Twitter. It gets my giggs noticed all around the clock in hashtag searches and I make frequent sales. If there any Fiverr sellers who need any help with it just message me and I will help you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nhshapiro Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 It pays to share you Gigs on social media because the only investment you make is your time.Now I use twitter to share my Gigs, and they way to measure the social success on Fiverr is looking at your Gig Analytics. Take the time and invest and learn more about your Analytics. The other key in terms of your Gigs success is the number impressions the Gig generates when people are searching Fiverr.The key to social media is getting the right message out there in terms of the value of your Gig. Additionally knowing the hastags you use.Start with twitter, use Google URL shortener, test and learn.Check out #LowCostAnalytics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
