I, for one, never got that. However, I think you can go back and check the email. Most likely you can check it all again if you want to.

Most likely you are offering a service that's not allowed. Usually when a gig is denied, they also tell you a reason for the denial.

When you Google "how to join Fiverr Pro", this shows up https://help-pro.fiverr.com/hc/en-us/articles/17029281011217-How-to-Become-a-Fiverr-Pro-freelancer and you have an application link there. Funnily enough, you're the second person asking the same question today. I would hold off until you get more reviews and stuff, your account is very new. But that's my opinion, feel free to try and apply right now.

To be fair.. you want to be a Pro freelancer on Fiverr but can't Google "Fiverr Pro"...? It's the first link in search results, and the one right under is an FAQ where they link you directly to the application page.

It's fine, but realistically you shouldn't expect any sales. Not everyone that follows you might be interested in buying your service. Some might even see it as spam.

As the others said.. set some realistic deadlines and ideally, work on projects in the order you received them. That way, everyone is happy and you're not delaying orders.

So you have more than one Fiverr account. You realize that breaks the rules, right? You can't have more than one account. That will get you banned.

Well many niches are hit by AI. Graphics, writing, these tend to see a lot of damage from AI. So it's expected to see less orders, since people started using AI to generate that type of content. There are still plenty of clients, but certainly less than what it used to be.

I think you're missing the point. Try to read the rules many times, understand them and follow them properly. If you just want to see how many times you can break the rules before your account shuts down, don't. Read the terms of service, and avoid any problems. There are people that have been here since the beginning, I've been here for 10 years as well. Stay within the Fiverr rules and you will be fine.

I would say don't worry about it. Just focus on delivering the best work and keep your clients happy. That's what matters. You can still be level 2 and earn more than top rated sellers. Also, a badge doesn't make or break your future here on the platform.

Do we really need dozens of topics about this... I get it, it's New Year's, but there are already multiple topics about this already, and they all say the same thing 🙂

Focus on getting work on Fiverr's main website. The forum is useful if you want to ask for help, to receive guidance and also solve various issues that others might have gone through. As Alex said, you're not getting orders here, and those badges are shiny, but useless.

Well, what exactly did you do? Because if Fiverr says you broke the rules, you most likely did, without even knowing I assume.

AI is already used by Google to serve you ads. If anything it will become even smarter and you will have highly targeted ads.

Don't copy other gigs Use your industry knowledge and experience to stand out Show your previous work Don't steal images from other gigs, same can be said when it comes to their information (copy/pasting is a bad thing) Avoid offering the same services like other people. Generally, offering the same stuff everyone does means you will be outshined by older gigs, and not a lot of people might give you a chance. Try to be unique, with both your gig presentation, but also the type of service you offer.

As Vickie said, the problems appear if your buyer started the order and said stuff like "I will send the info later". That's an issue because you are already under a deadline. But in that case, you can go to customer support.

Well, if a solo freelancer competes with a team, that's quite unfair. And I can say that for a fact, because a team has a much larger output, more frequent deliveries and other things that are favored by the algorithm. Sure, that might also lead to a lack of consistency in some cases. But overall, teams tend to receive the upper hand from the algorithm. And I can say that for a fact, seeing the writing niche I am in. From what I saw in other niches, it's similar. It's been like this for a decade so it's not like they changed it in any way. I doubt they ever will. How can you know if someone is a team or not anyway.. since they can easily lie, in fact most teams hide under the solo freelancer moniker, few of them actually disclose they are a team and not just their team leader taking the orders. Obviously I have a problem with that because I work alone, so it's quite unfair to be positioned against teams.. because they can deliver more stuff quicker, and in general I saw the algorithm favors them. I also saw that many teams ended up banned though, because when you have such a large output, it's a lot easier to break the rules as you're in a constant rush to deliver. At this point I am used to that. But as I said, from my experience, teams are favored by the algorithm, since they deliver quicker, make revisions quicker, etc. So they do have an advantage, although there are cons to that as well.

And they work alone, right? As a solo developer/writer/freelancer, how the heck can you compete with those people? Because I am sure Fiverr doesn't differentiate solo freelancers and teams. Plus even if they would give such an option, most people would lie anyway.

It seems very fishy and fraudulent. In my opinion, you should either ask why they need to set that up (because it's something they can do themselves) or just avoid the order entirely. If it's fishy, you can end up losing your account or anything they would pay for the order at the very least. So it's a good idea to stay away from anything even remotely fishy.

You've been on Fiverr for more than a year and never got an order, Fiverr is promoting new gigs now, if you're not getting any orders, it will continue to go down most likely. And stop listening to "stay online", it's a waste of time.

Well as @vibronx said, the AI did the work. You offer a service where you create AI art, and you call yourself the AI Artisan. With all due respect, you have an username that clearly involves AI, some of your gigs focus on AI art, so clearly the AI does the work and you refine it.

No. It just shows people that you post or react a lot. That doesn't make you an all-powerful person full of knowledge.

Did you receive an email from Fiverr stating your order was late? If so, then you got hit 🙂

https://www.fiverr.com/users/sheena_jones/edit/account I assume that's where you should go. You need to go to the account settings, and you have a Deactivate Account option.

It depends. If you rarely have an order that's late, it can take 2-3 hours at most, and then it's marked as late by the system. If you deliver late more often, then it's within 1 to 60 minutes most of the time. I know, I mentioned this above for the OP. I assume most buyers will end up accepting the extension and not canceling the order. But it depends based on what the buyer wants, urgency, etc.
