fonthaunt Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 Reply to @funkygfx: It offers a great example of why I personally wouldn’t buy from anyone like @robin1991. He either doesn’t understand post or worst, doesn’t care. If I bought from @robin1991 he probably won’t care if I get nothing for my heard earned money.Sheriff’s Note: Asking for more help with sales in a thread about spam is: SPAM. robin1991 is not recommended. 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thecreativeguys Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Reply to @mark74: Thanks! I came and found every category was filled with junk. Why do people love doing this?? Is there a real reason? I understand if there is a link or something but just plain garbage text??!Also, the past 2 days I’ve got probably 10, not sarcastically! Junk messages!!Every 3 of those messages Fiverr already banned the accounts but the rest just end up killing my response rate, NOW i’m at 87% before 97%This is really frustrating. I am not sure what to do. It just doesn’t make me feel good or motivated when I respond to every message but these stupid messages make there way in and I suffer. 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manikmunna Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Great Tips! I post several times in My Fiverr Gigs section…is it spam? 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fonthaunt Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 Reply to @manikmunna: Technically you can post about your own gigs multiple times in the My Fiverr Gigs section.The other answer is that yes, when you flood advertising in any way, it is not only spam but hurts your sales and even hurts others advertising near you.What if you walked into a grocery market and 10 people ran at you waving different kinds of fruit. They were all screaming that their fruit was best. Do you care if it is one vendor with 10 employees or 10 vendors selling different types of fruit? It’s spam - it makes you want to leave and buy nothing. No oranges, no fruit, no items further inside the store. Flooding any market with a ton of advertising is not good.

fonthaunt Posted July 27, 2015 Author Share Posted July 27, 2015 Reply to @fonthaunt: If what I said about the grocer makes sense, feel free to go with it or reply. If it doesn’t make sense, tell me so I can fix it. I really want others to sell and to understand why spam hurts sales. 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhanur88 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 i got SPAM messages via fiverr by indicating that i won a lottery 🙂 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fonthaunt Posted July 28, 2015 Author Share Posted July 28, 2015 Reply to @dhanur88: Yes, so did pretty much every seller. That is a different kind of spam altogether and all you can do is report and ignore.

designbybliss Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I feel like “How do I get to be a Top Rated Seller” could probably be added under “bonus thought questions”… I’m on here trolling most days and I see that one pretty often. I don’t know why, but it annoys me… I guess it feels like people looking for a magic answer rather than working hard and putting in the time. #rantover 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
