Thank you, everyone, wishing you all a successful journey ahead.

Below Average, struggling. Hoping to get on first pages soon.

A cash advance is an automated system, it may show up soon or never. It totally depends on Fiverr's algorithm to decide. I would advise you not to opt for a cash advance due to religious terms.

Thank you.

Thank you Kayes.

Hello Folks! I'm thrilled to disclose my time period on this amazing platform, 8 years !!! I first joined Fiverr in early 2016 and had no clue/idea about how this works, we were just college friends, sitting in a cafe, exploring opportunities to make our lives better, and we came across this platform. Did some initial research whatever we could at that time with very limited resources and took a leap of faith and joined as a seller. I had no concept of TOS at that time and what services to offer, so I sat down and narrowed down what I can do better and confidently. I was good at artwork and sketches, so I published my not-so-very-good gig related to artwork and illustrations. I used to draw on paper and canvases with different mediums so I had no idea how that will work on fiverr. I started exploring the buyer requests and sent a few, and to my surprise, I was approached by a wonderful lady ( still my buyer) who required some work for her kids. That's where I started my fiverr journey on the very first day of joining the platform and it has been wonderful since. I have seen ups and downs of fiverr, cracked the algorithm and internals ( I believe), and upgraded my skills from paper to digital, and whatnot. A lot has happened since my first sale. I made myself financially independent and never worked in any firm or job. Fiverr has changed a lot in all these days but I found it seller-oriented every time. Some rules may look harsh but actually, they benefitted me eventually. I have seen the weirdest buyer to the humblest one. Worked with almost every category of buyers in this time period but still I think I need a lot to learn and grow. I never became TRS, which everyone here struggles to and have Thousands of happy clients. Few months have been really tough here but that will pass too. This was a basic insight and journey here of the last 8 years. Share your journey too. Regards, Ahsan Artist & Illustrator.

Best Of luck I think internal quality metrics got fixed or reset, and everything is coming back on track.

Once your gig is optimized and doing well with orders and search results, NEVER change anything including price etc. This messes up the internal algorithm and fiverr tries to place it accordingly. Please wait for a week or so things should settle and try running a promotion if active. P.S., When the "Rotation Period" starts, there's not much we can do, it usually takes 2,3 months to be back on track.

It's a very old scam, unfortunately they find ways to manipulate the sellers though. Report and block them.

The question is good, however it will be only fruitful if you experiment it, learn gig-seo and experiment different keywords on a NEW gig and wait for the results. Eventually you'll find the sweet spot and get ranked.

Well, this is the insecurity all sellers have. There must be any permanent and reliable solution to this, we all understand, hundreds of new sellers join fiverr everyday, fiverr tries to keep them in loop and and give them chance by de-ranking ( there is no de-ranking word in fiverr's dictionary though) individuals with tiniest mistakes, and ranking the new seller gigs. The biggest drawback is sometimes promotable gigs are also unqualified, leaving the seller with zero response on all gigs and profile. The answer to your question would be, have a good relationship with your buyers. Keeps them updated and offer them discounts from time to time, hence, they would be your recurring buyers, giving positive impact to your profile. Recurring buyers are the beating heart of your gigs in such times, and remain online. This will help you in filtration even if your gig is de-ranked. Please note that this is my personal experience only, each gig and it's stats will be different from niche to niche. My request to Fiverr would be to introduce such system , by which at-least sellers don't have to sit idle for months after de-ranking, just because of an order cancellation.

Graphic Designing is a vast field, explore different sub categories , according to your liking and interests. If you're creative and love explaining ideas visually, then it's for you and might seems easy and interesting. Else, you'll end up saying "Grapes are sour" . Good Luck 🙂

Unfortunately my promotion stopped a couple of months back and in frustration I changed everything on my best selling gig, Improved tags, added improved and new images, wrote error free description. I'm sitting idle since then, it's been almost 4 months. I think I did seriously wrong changing my gig . 😕

I found a temporary solution to this, just start typing from the second line by pressing return and you will see the words. Only dark mode is effected, and it's working well on light mode.
