    Quick question for forum active people, did any thread in the past reach this number of pages?

    Yes, they used to cut them off at 250, I think. 🤔 Maybe @imagination7413 remembers. 

    (Pulling your posts to this thread, since it's rather off-topic for that one.)

    I think so? Before the migration from Discorse to Invision, it was almost mandatory to lock 'mega threads' due to the lag, since the former loaded ALL posts in the thread into one webpage. Invision at least divides posts into 25 per page.

    Just for fun, I sorted the forums by "Most Replies", and this came up:

    (First result after the pinned threads.)

    Does Fiver rank easily as compared to Google

    Nope. Fiverr's algorithm is different from Google's. Here's what Fiverr says on the topic:

    Quote

    In the marketplace, a Gig's position is based on the seller’s performance over a set period. Gig positions are not permanent and can rotate daily.

    Also, using copyrighted content in your samples is a Fiverr ToS violation and can get you banned. 

    Fiverr gives newcomers a temporary boost. You're no longer new, so you no longer get the boost.

    Is this happens before ?

    I'm not quite sure what you're asking.

    • If you're asking if that particular error has happened before, then that was the first time I'd seen it.
    • If you're asking if the removal of clubs has happened before, then no, not since the migration of the forum in '21.
    • If you're asking if the Fiverr staff has messed with the forum setting before, then yes, as that's the only way to tweak settings, since (from what I've read about Invision) there's no 'preview' option to test what things will look like before they are implemented.

    If you're asking something that's not covered by the previous guesses, then you will need to clarify.

  4. In order to be a seller, you must have one gig. As a new seller you can create a maximum of 4 gigs. Do NOT make gigs for skills you do not have.

    (Honestly, your gig images are pretty bad. They're completely unreadable at thumbnail size, which is how people will first see them.)

    What deliberate effort can I do to have more orders?

    Deliberate? Put simply: find them yourself. Learn who your target market are and go to them, rather than wait for them to come to you.

  6. You're very upset, I get it. The first time I fell for a deception that cost me the value of more than a paycheck, I was mad too. I was mad at the person who tricked me, I was mad at the middleman who made the duplicity possible, and I was mad at myself for falling for it. Thinking about it still makes me upset, years later. 

    However: once burned twice shy. It was a very important life lesson for me. Expensive, but important. Do I wish I could have gotten my money back? YES. But it was my own fault for falling for the trick. 

    That said, you're not the only person who thinks Fiverr needs to introduce some form of verification upon signup, and some barrier to entry.

    have made numerous reports and emails to fiverr

    If you're submitting multiple tickets for the same issue, that's considered spamming. 

    How long ago did you submit the tickets? From what I've read on the forums lately, Customer Support is dealing with a backlog.

  8. First thing first: remove your email from your gig image before you get banned for breaking the Fiverr Terms of Service. If that isn't your email address, then you aren't much of a marketer to not know what are acceptable placeholders for mockups.

    That said, you've picked a sector with a LOT of competition and your samples aren't very good.

    how can i rank them to first page

    You can't. Fiverr states:

    it seems like a pretty smart move to network a bit

    You've... not really made a very good first impression. 

    If you go to an in-person meet-n-greet conference, you generally would try to find out some information about it first, right? Like the dress-code, or who the attendees are, or the keynote speakers. You wouldn't wear a three-piece suit to business-casual, you wouldn't attend a panel on quilting when there's one on sales and marketing, you wouldn't take the stage yourself if you'd not been invited to do so, and you wouldn't inject yourself into a conversation without reading the room. 

    In an online business forum: read the rules; read pinned posts; read and take note of people who seem to know what they're talking about and verify that they actually do; read source material so that you can cite said sources; read the room.

    The forum is NOT a blog.

    The first few moments of your interaction can set the tone for the entire relationship.

    "You never get a second chance to make a good first impression." 

    Uncited AI is like bringing a rented Ferrari to a car show and pretending it's yours.

    Saying 'this post uses AI' is vague, because you've never (as far as I can tell) made any posts that don't use AI, so there's nothing for us to compare. We can't know how much is original, and how much is the AI. You've brought a refurbished car to the show that you've worked on, but then you let a shop work on it, and weren't actually the one to make it run. 

    These forums are full of non-native English speakers/writers. Unless a user is lying about their proficiency, or offers a Gig that requires fluency, no one really cares if their English isn't perfect as long as they show that they are willing to learn and making an effort to learn. Let your conversation skills be authentic.

    Please. Do a little homework: Spend a few days browsing and reading the forums before you post.

    At the moment we are creating our [gig], there is a description part where there has to be a minimum of 20 characters, however, when typing anything it automatically deletes, this makes it impossible to advance the [process], follow the video attachment showing the what happens, if someone could help me that would be great.

    Try typing it in notepad and then copy/paste it into the box. Unless that's what you were trying in the last few seconds of the video. Can't tell, since you don't show the keyboard. Might be a unicode/character issue. The description ought to be in English.

    I will consider specializing in a certain type of video editing in order to meet specific needs

    One gig that encapsulates all the specifics, like what you currently have, isn't a bad idea. As a new seller, though, you are permitted to make 4 total gigs, so if you want to make three more that focus on the individual services, go ahead.

    Using the quilt example, I could have additional gigs, such as one for scrap quilts, or for recycled material, or one specifically for quilt or quilting patterns. Which are individual parts of quilt making, that some buyer might be looking for, rather than a finished quilt.

    Even if a new creator posts a perfect ad, will it really be seen by customers?

    I have the impression that SEO largely benefits people who already have a certain number of positive reviews, which is normal. But in this case, how can we ensure that the ad is not invisible?

    Again: Yes, and no.

    At it's most basic, Search Engine Optimization (SEO) works best when what you claim to offer in your gig matches what a Buyer types in the search bar. 

    If I make quilts, and my gig were titled "I will make you the prettiest and most comfortable bed covers and blankets" while a Buyer types 'quilts' into the search bar, then my gig wouldn't be considered a match, even though what I make is exactly what they are looking for, and even if I already had numerous reviews. 

    That all said:

    You are responsible for your own gig's success. Don't rely solely on Fiverr. Do market research. Know who your target market is.

    Because even with a perfect ad, if no one sees it, it won't change anything...

    How do you define 'perfect'?

    If you take your own gig video for example, I for one would not call it 'perfect'. And I already pointed out the problem with your gig images.
