misscrystal Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Hello, I don’t think anyone here knows the answer. I see my sales go up and down a lot. Any answer would only be a guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaymack Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I have seen the same thing happen, even though I have great reviews and ratings. It seems to run in cycles. Also, there are always new sellers coming on Fiverr, so sometimes the competition gets hot. However, if you do a good job for people and take care of your buyers, they will come back to you with more business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariarajput786 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 You’re not just alone there in corresponding category. There are a lot. Fiverr try to give everybody a chance 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alysmcdonough Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I wonder what the psychics here would say if we all ordered gigs and asked them that question? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinghaxor Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 This happened with me too.I will just suggest you that stay online as long as possible because when someone search for a gig fiverr show online sellers first.Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alysmcdonough Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 I have no proven evidence that being online works, but as a buyer I have gone on and clicked on the “online now” option when searching for someone to do a gig. I surely don’t think it hurts if you come back and refresh a fiverr page every so often to remain online for the optimum time (and I’ve been doing this). On the flip side, as a seller, this week I changed my main gig to 24 hour delivery as, again, I feel the more days it takes to complete a gig might also have an effect when someone’s using that search box. Obviously me having a super solid feedback record helps also but yes. Fiverr is an interesting beast. I have sellers that I utilize and I’ve given them all good feedback multiple times, yet I rarely see anyone I work with whilst searching and they only seem to get orders from me - which is bizarre as they do amazing work.

davehaertel Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 when I started I had to push back my delivery days because I was coming close to the deadline on every order and was getting multiple orders per week. I just now got an email that I haven’t logged in to the website in 30 days and if I didn’t they would cancel my account. I haven’t logged into the website in 30 days because I haven’t gotten even ONE email or contact or sale. It’s a joke. Fiverr’s new search is BS and only benefited their Top Rated Sellers, all level 2 and level 1 sellers are starving for work now. Total joke this company is.

fastcopywriter Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Sales vary, and the reasons they vary are hundreds if not thousands. So let me give you a checklist:Do you have any spelling mistakes?Is your sales copy easy to read? Are you separating your paragraphs?Are you making a good offer compared to your competitors? Click on their gigs and check on their queues.Are you delivering too fast or too slow? I like to find a happy medium, mine is three days.Do you sound desperate? Are you overpromising? I never hire anyone who promises unlimited revisions for example.Do you have an ugly profile picture? You can replace that with a logo. If you’re going to appear on camera, make sure you’re against a clear background.Yet even if you take care of these 6th point, the market does what the market does. I’ve had days where I only made $8 and says when I make $40 or more. If you want to learn more, read “How writers make money on Fiverr.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudevectors Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 davehaertel,I’ve noticed a significant drop in enquires from the US and other regions, bar UK/IEfastcopywriter,All good points but there is without doubt a change in traffic that has nothing to do with those tips. It could be that Fiverr apart from changing the metadata/search algo, they make “post a request” more prominent on the first page. So instead of simply taking the time to search, buyers might just post what they want, although I haven’t analysed the requests to verify this.I’ve also read that they promote certain categories more, as they generate more revenue, bad for some but Fiverr is a business and needs to maximise profit.

mariarajput786 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Yeah It works but not directly. It only works in case the buyer would select “Online Sellers” Check box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
careerplus Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 You are right misscrystal. Right now, I am expressing the same and I know its a phase and happens all the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

careerplus Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Right now I am experiencing the same with my resume writing services. Most of my customers now come from Asia against the usual US. Some sellers don’t get short of orders and they keep gttingnorders everyday. How do they do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auraiyaits Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Same issue here…my gig sell also decreased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nueljosh Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Am experiencing the same thing as well. Sales dropped to zero since 5 days ago. No sales just normal inquires that those not seem to be converting. This is becoming worrisome.What’s up fiverr?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudevectors Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 With the change in the source location of buyer traffic (yes some use vpn to hide true location but not all) I think there is a double impact due to buyer behaviour. In my experience the ones that converted more often than not, were from the US.This tallies with my experiences in other areas of the business arena using certain platforms, US buyers tended to hit the trigger more readily than other regions, which take longer to convert. Also there are different cultural likes and dislikes by country, so others may get a boost, rather than negative, depending on what they are offering.Maybe Fiverr is currently focusing more advertising in other locations.

misscrystal Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 I have a question for all those with this drop in sales?Is your page converting automatically to uk.fiverr from fiverr.com?My sales go up when it is just fiverr.com and go down when it does the automaticswitch to uk.fiverr.com.

logo_desing Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 after updating fiverr system, some seller facing same problem. now my sell totally zero, but i got 388 positive reviews Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudevectors Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Do you mean when you log in? The problem with that, is that it’s local client based, although the search algo will pick up how you logged in, that doesn’t seem to make any difference where we appear when logged in to either.The problem seems more to do with the actual traffic makeup arriving to the gigs. Or it does for certain categories. Again it could be the case that Fiverr is changing which categories they push, and in which region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
