The forum is here for information, discussion … and whining about Fiverr.
We like it that way (mostly).

Although Glasgow is on lock down again
You live in Glasgow? One of my favourite cities. We were up there for a few days last year. It hammered it down with rain, but we still had a great time. We’ve done a few city breaks over the last few years, and the people in Glasgow were by far the friendliest we encountered.
It hammered it down with rain
Lol! It often does. We had very good weather first couple of weeks in August - everyone was squinting at the sky, wondering what that light was … 😉

I have my favourite food and fashion blogs … occasionally go out for a walk or a coffee with a friend.
Although Glasgow is on lock down again … those young folks will insist on meeting their friends …

Just wait - it’s being rolled out over time.

So, in this post, I’ll share my insights for what I’ve learned in my Fiverr journey and how can you get more orders if you are a new and level 1 seller. A little about myself first- I am a 27 yr old digital marketer and joined Fiverr last September. I’ve been jumping forth and back from New Seller to Level 1 (credit to the order completion rate). I still don’t make much from Fiverr, it’s around $150-$200/month but it pays some of…Introduction– This is not a list on how to make gigs. This is for gigs that are already made that are under-performing, need an overhaul, or just need somewhere to start for self-evaluation/education. It does contain a few general-information bits, and can help during gig creation, but that is neither the focus nor the intent.

If you read the fo…We’ve all seen these posts here on the forum from time to time. Many sellers have the same question: “Why isn’t my gig visible when I search for it?” and “What’s up with Fiverr’s algorithm? My gig is on the last page!!!”. In this post I’ll try to answer those questions, and give some (hopefully) helpful tips and tricks to help you rank your gig in Fiverr Search, and get more orders and better visibility. This isn’t a full-proof guide in any way.

Some sellers wait months or more to get their first order! Don’t wait! Check out: https://forum.fiverr.com/c/Fiverr-Tips/tips-for-sellers for hundreds of tips on how to get orders. Take time to read, learn, and take action! That is the only way to get orders! Be a Doer! Try it out for yourself! Good luck!Making money on Fiverr is becoming more difficult these days, with so many new people joining up hoping to earn money on Fiverr quickly. Here are my thoughts on this - and, yes, it involves some work and thought before publishing a gig!- 6

… which is why the original post is a good place to start …

It’s really not. Just pick one. Are you a US citizen or not … ?
I like to think I’m a patient person, having raised 2 ornery children (the last one was - and is - a delicate, non ornery person) … but this confusion over something so incredibly simple is totally bewildering …

How is it confusing? Answer yes or no.

I am a non us person. what I have to do now? will it be hampered in my account ?
You can send customer support that question on the same ticket as your other one.
Anyone who is still confused about this should probably ask customer support. They can explain it better.
We have a long thread now about this with people still asking what they should do so it’s obvious we are not doing a good job of explaining it.
Actually, I think the issue is that no one is doing a good job of reading the original post!

Are you a US person? Yes or No - it should be pretty simple …
- 43
-
Doesn’t matter where you live, if you’re a US citizen you are required to pay taxes there.
And yes, that sometimes means you’re paying taxes twice - once in the country you live in and again in the US …

@ruprekha - just click “no”. All this anxiety is a waste of energy - the form is simple.

-
@maryamlodhi - are you a US citizen? If so, click “yes” … if not, click “no”. Nothing confusing about it.

Take a screenshot of the conversation and attach it to a - short - message to CS. Be prepared to wait a while …

Agreed. Being able to move things around - including images! - would be extremely useful.
For now, you just have to create your FAQ in a word (or whatever) document in the right order, then cut and paste them into your gig …

That’s very weird - I’ve never been warned for that wording.
It’s possible the buyer is reporting you out of spite …

Say no thanks, then report and block. Particularly when they give you some form of “everyone else does it”.
The way you put it is “Communication outside Fiverr is strictly forbidden. We could both get banned.”
Do not discuss it any further.

I’ve given one buyer a one star rating - they were difficult, entitled and threatened to leave a bad review (which they did, but not as bad as mine to them).
Give honest - but professionally worded! - reviews. Sellers should be warned about scummy buyers.
Mostly, if it hasn’t been a great experience and I’m expecting a less than enthusiastic buyer review, I’ll leave 5* but with the comment “Thank you for your order”.

To get back to the point - lets just call it a bonus …

-
Huh. That’s interesting. A tip here is generally given in cash. Usually not taxable. A bonus, on the other hand, is structured as part of salary …
- 5
-
Well, yes … but the truth is that “bonus” implies some part of it is going to be taken out by the state, fiverr, whatever. A bonus costs more to give (and receive) than a tip.
The whole tip thing is a discussion about whether or not it’s insulting, imo …
- 6
-
Maybe a better wording would be something like “do you want to give your freelancer a bonus for a job well done?”
Bonuses are ok … tips are for low paid workers. And bonuses are taxable.

I have already sold 2 different Videos and they arent’t shown on my Gig :c
Make sure your live portfolio is on. And bear in mind that the buyer doesn’t have to agree to add anything to your portfolio - they can turn it off for their particular delivery …
