photogallery Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 This question is not just for me but also for other new fiverr users. We’d like to know how many days does it normally take until you receive your first order. I’d like to average it from all your response. I know that it will still depend on the type of your gig. However, no matter how great your gig is, as long as it is now shown in the homepage or first page of each category, it will get no exposure.

mrspanda Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Well, I got my first 5 orders the same day I created my gig BUT I did not rely on Fiverr to advertise me… I went on Facebook and posted it to some groups I was a part of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasveena Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 very fast I think I made it on 11th May and I got it the next day. Till now, I have completed about 13-15 orders 🙂 Got some regular customers too. Advertised in Google + in relevant pages. Some gig, I didn’t, it just comes. I think if your gig is relevant and your service meets their requirements, it’s fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrspanda Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Reply to @photogallery: Well, I’m part of a lot of Facebook groups- particularly ones that are directed at Freelancers. They’re all closed groups- open groups are useless because EVERYONE is posting spam and you’ll never get exposure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invalid_usernme Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Took like 5 day for me, got so giggly when I got my first order 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photogallery Posted May 23, 2013 Author Share Posted May 23, 2013 Reply to @mrspanda: Thanks for the tip. Actually I have been joining groups but never thought of the idea of joining closed group instead of open ones. Truth is im only joining open groups. Thanks to you I have to redo it but its worth it.

seohut Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 You should do some marketing of your gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonbaas Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 Please do NOT promote your gigs in these forum. All gig promotion belongs in the My Fiverr Gigs forums. Please refer to our Forum Rules for clarification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryancaldarone Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 I first heard about Fiverr® on the TWiT podcast network in relation to app developers. I visited the site, found a large community in many categories, and made an account. Without looking at the market I made a Gig™ for music lessons ( I’ve been a music instructor part time for years while I was in school ). Didn’t get any hits.I made my account in FEB 2015.In SEP 2015 I wanted to start building my copywriting and brand writing portfolio and figured Fiverr® was a great platform for it. I spent some time researching other top sellers in the Writing & Translation Category, looked at what I could provide, figured out the amount of work I could provide within a certain amount of time, and priced my Gig™ competitively for the market. As I was a new seller I focused on customer service, and a fast delivery turnover.I received my first order within hours of posting it, and have been experiencing slowly increasing revenues ever since. I earned Level 1 within weeks, and Level 2 about a month after that. Since then I’ve developed fantastic relationships with my clients and have been having a great time.From my experience, it’s all about positioning yourself in a place of value within the market of your sub categories.

outcomesmeasure Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 2 weeks, 3 orders. The impact of those first reviews is still fresh in my mind - The only thought I had then was - Ok, so this works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
