  1. Once again, thank you so very much. I agree with what you said about trying out different prices. I created some more gigs yesterday to offer some other types of voice overs (@uxreview had a great take on how specifics can help). I combined this with some varied price offerings based off what type of buyers I would like to attract. I feel better knowing A) I am being paid closer to what I feel my work is worth B) I am able to work with more buyers looking for quality, and not how many words I can fit for $5. Thank you again!
  2. Thank you very much @lisabaarns. I’m glad that you have brought some clarification to this for me. I noticed the filter before as well. Did you set on $15 as the base because of the search function? (Ex $10 is still bundled in the lower category) or was $15 a choice number. Thank you again!
  3. I was taking a look at the search results in the voice over category. I happen to notice that 3 Top Rated Sellers have recently changed their base gig prices from $5 to $10. These sellers have had $5 as their base for at least 2 years. All 3 have changed this month to a $10 base price. The amount of work hasn’t changed (Ex. $10 for 300 words instead of $5 for 150 words). I thought it was interesting considering that all 3 have had $5 as their base (2 of them even have posts on this forum about why TRS sellers should offer $5 as their base). Why the change in their tune? I also noticed that every “rising talent” gig, had a base of at least $10. Curious on your thoughts. Are they playing the game of the new search algorithm? It just seemed very odd for them to all change at the same time, after being so adamant about “Fiverr’s Roots” of the $5 base price.
  4. You would be correct. I checked as well and pretty much all of his gig images are from someone else. My recommendation… don’t take other people’s work and label it as your own.
  5. I’m gonna take a shot in the dark, and guess that you are not using the “tip” feature as intended. Out of curiosity, did this buyer place an order from you for a smaller amount than you wanted, but agreed to tip you more money to make up for it? It sounds like you took an order… knew a tip would be coming (flag) and were unhappy with the amount. Only idea I can come up with is that you agreed ahead of time on a tip amount (flag)
  6. Think about it sales will not continue to flow constantly as you expect. Some days/weeks dry spells other days not so much. That’s Ebb & Flow if you owned a business outside of Fiverr you would understand that’s how Business works. Finding every opportunity to blame Fiverr for no sales, sorry I just can’t wrap my head around it. I asked you what do you want Fiverr to do? I’m curious to know what are your expectations. Realistic expectations: “I know that I may get some orders from Fiverr’s searches, but I shouldn’t rely on just that. I should find where my buyers are and advertise my services there too. Then, I will have some business coming in when Fiverr’s searches don’t bring too many orders”. Their expectations: “Fiverr should give me a steady stream of orders, all the time. And how dare you even THINK that a buyer may look at my gig and not want to buy it!”
  7. I remember when I saw this post created. I thought his exact thing would happen, lol
  8. Why are you giving away our secrets? Everyone knows that it is a secret tip to send requests on Firday’s after lunch time.
  9. You just explained 99% of the business models that I, unfortunately, get to work with on a daily basis.
  10. It depends on the changes you make. You may have made a small tweak that the site didn’t need to pause your gig. I have made small changes before with no search effects, and then some medium changes with my search being off for at least a day.
  11. This would mean that your gig was never showing in search results. So no sales.
  12. You’ve been a member for less than 24 hours. Already dug up an old dead thread, and I need to get used to it? So much to be confused about here.
  13. Funny you brought this old thread up, because I have the same issue. 2 lines on desktop and 1 on mobile. I can’t seem to find how to get them only 1 spaced on both. Hopefully we can figure it out.
