Official feedback thread re: the new leveling system
dutchbydesign replied to frank_d's topic in Fiverr.com Feedback
YOU: AI generated content? (there is an other post showing an account fullfilling more than 9 clients per minute) sorry for all the designers but fiverr is making their own AI generated fake accounts for that... What is this? I don't get this. 🧐 -
Official feedback thread re: the new leveling system
dutchbydesign replied to frank_d's topic in Fiverr.com Feedback
Something has to change. The current rating system is flawed and disproportionately favours buyers over sellers. One glaring example is when working with clients who make you work for peanuts (unrealistic expectations with and demands) leaving sellers with virtually no room to provide our honest review reflecting this reality as you risk facing backlash in the form of their 'What do you really think?' sneaky Fiverr review.. It's an unfair situation where sellers are set up to lose. -

Etiquettes for navigating ratings and reviews from buyers
dutchbydesign replied to Kesha's topic in Sellers Best Practices
100% agree on this. Example my husband will NEVER leave a review for anything positive. Never! If he is not satisfied then he will complain.- 172 replies

Official feedback thread re: the new leveling system
dutchbydesign replied to frank_d's topic in Fiverr.com Feedback
This is real and also I relate fully. I see a lot that copy me and I find I can't even block them. I been offering my services since 2017 on Fiverr and going over and over word by word using every scrap of character space and taking hours to define my wording - updating it every few months so to be different to others who have actually copied me. It's so unfair that all our hard work is going to poop in so many ways. To add, I can't even work out where I am going wrong in the Customer Satisfaction ratings fall. -
Eat healthy, few little wines on the weekend and never trying to go overboard with that. Future plans, long and short term. Cat cuddles are fantastic. With all that said, social life can be a lot better.

I have to sometimes use a VPN to shop for my clients in USA as some shops block my IP address in Netherlands. Will this affect us who use this for work? How about travelling nomads who work all over the world? We plan to do this in a few years in Australia. @Kesha

It's been a month - few impressions/ clicks. HELP
dutchbydesign replied to el_octogono's topic in Gig Advice
I had a look at your gig and I like that you have visuals and sample, however I would do more in the: About This Gig. Have your intro What your experience is and any schooling What you offer (in bullet-point) Finish it off with an ending You can take a look at my gigs - search my name and then click search usernames and check out how i have done mine. I have used this formatting for for a long time (2017). Also make sure it is all 'Grammatically Correct.' Hopefully that will help you more 🙂 -
Ghosted? – Allow cancellations with no penalty.
dutchbydesign replied to charlsmcfarlane's topic in Fiverr.com Feedback
I completely understand your frustration. The situation you've described is not only inconvenient but also impacts your business efficiency and planning. I know it well. I also offer the zoom meeting and sometimes they are a no show and it really can take a lot of time out of your day. I have had some other.. difficult issues with clients not signing off their work or amongst other things and overall I feel we have no control, when we should and this can cause a lot of stress and resentment. -
If your gig is losing rank there could be some factors to this but it's hard to know exactly. Fiverr is highly competitive and you need to keep evolving. Here are some tips that help me: Check your best competition that sells the same with a similar price. What are they offering? Are you doing your best and are clients feeling they are getting good value for money? It is possible that they are giving you good ratings but giving you private negative feedback (this sux). Make sure you get back to your clients, touching base, asking if there is anything else you can do for them. Be connected to them. Also give updates every few days on where you are at. Always update your gigs. Never let your gigs go stagnant. Always think on improvements, can you offer something extra? Can you improve on your communication skills? How about the gig visually? Is there any room for improvement? Best of luck.

Not understanding you why you think my comment is funny? I have found a lot of people copy my gig word for word: adding to your list that being original is important..
-
What do you mean? I am adding to your list..

And absolutely be original. Don't copy others. This is very noticeable and you open yourself to being banned from Fiverr.

Seller is asking me to pay crypto outside of Fiverr
dutchbydesign replied to ace_salvador's question in Starter Questions
In no way shape or form can you accept payments outside Fiverr, it's about your protection and their share of the money.. Or this platform would die. That's just basic knowledge. Maybe you can request to Fiverr that they can look at implementing this so people can pay with crypto as it's another form of modern payment. -
Advice on how to handle increasing demand.
dutchbydesign replied to fylaxtas's topic in Fiverr Excel
I 'try' and switch off all communications while working with an allocated work time slot. Two hours is a good time to stop, have a break and stretch the legs and back. While having a coffee break, I catch up with messages on Fiverr. Also, remember priority are the new possible clients. While as older clients following up on work, is not. I am also fortunate to have a husband, who is my part-time admin for my our studio (but not always is he available, as he has a full-time job outside our studio.) Hope this helps you 🙂 -
I have not yet given any clients a 1 star (as yet.) I have come close. Especially to a lady who recently said a full two days work (done over a week) was only worth half of what was charged. I did the refund through Fiverr as it was milestones and she did not complain till the last delivery. Mind you, she loved the work.!! But expected unrealistic work to be done on the final delivery. Flabbergasted. So I was very close, to giving this client 1 star… but something held me back. How about you? What are your stories and why the 1 star to a client?
