Haha - great points. I think my purpose was that if the client had any issues with the order, it might look like I've just been trying to avoid them!

The post was just a bit of fun - every order gets treated the same.

You can currently block users entirely. However, you can’t block specific users from placing orders. I have had some HORROR clients, that I would like to prevent from ordering with me ever again. However, I wouldn’t want to block them entirely as I don’t want to cut off their communication to me. Therefore, I suggest that you have an option to prevent a user from ordering with you again, without fully blocking them.

Give me a break 🥴 🤣

I don't think it's fair. Fiverr holds funds as a middleman, meaning the client can get money back if there is a dispute. A partial payment just puts too much power in the buyer's hand - and can result in the buyer holding the seller ransom for their work.

Hey mate - to be on the safe side, never click links in Fiverr messages. There's no real reason that you should need to receive links from a client. I suppose, when the client places an order they might attach some links - but this is already less risky as you know they're a legit client. Fiverr lists some information about links that are allowed in Gigs/messages, check them out here: https://help.fiverr.com/hc/en-us/articles/360011421218-Gig-policies They are: ammyy.com blogspot.com flickr.com mixcloud.com reverbnation.com soundcloud.com spotify.com teamviewer.com tumblr.com vimeo.com wetransfer.com wikipedia.org youtube.com

Who's the most famous person that you've done a Fiverr order for? I haven't had toooo many famous people - other than some big record labels like Universal. I want to know - are there any celebrities buying on Fiverr?

No shame in that!! 💛 Any particular revenue goals?

A question for sellers: What do you want to get out of Fiverr - whats your goal? When I started Fiverr, I just put up a Gig to see what happened. That was 2019 - the year is 2023 and it's been a 4-year whirlwind. Whether you're new to Fiverr, or have been selling for a long time - what's your goal with Fiverr in terms of revenue, orders and career?

Sorry this is a horrific idea.

I made a Fiverr account about 5 years ago to use as a buyer. A year or so later, I decided to set up my own Gig, just to see if it would work... A few years later, I'm now a Top Rated Seller - and I absolutely love the Fiverr platform. BUT - I'm stuck with the username I made about 5 years ago!! It would be amazing if I could change my username - perhaps this would be a feature only available to a certain seller level? Let me know what you think?

If Fiverr is your only job - how do you structure your work day? Do you work set hours, like 9-5 - or do you just complete orders as you get them? I'm interested to hear!!

Hey guys! What tips & tricks do you use to focus whilst doing lots of Fiverr orders? Is it coffee, music... let's hear it!

For those celebrating the start of a new year, what are your resolutions for this year? Get more orders? Deliver better work? Reach a new seller level? Let's hear it!!!

That's great for you! However, by providing examples, do you perhaps feel you are effectively doing revision requests.. but just in a different form? Yes - I agree with you, it would be great if the revision requests were limited to the amount specified in the order!!

"Buyer has requested new revisions" It can be a daunting notification to receive. Currently, buyers can continue to select 'request a revision' as many times as they like - regardless of how many revisions are allowed in the order/Gig. Therefore, buyers can effectively abuse this function, meaning that they can prevent the order from ever being completed - effectively giving them all the power to keep requesting revisions from the seller, until they finally give up and make further changes (often for free). Many buyers know this, and continue to abuse this function to get revisions for free - holding the seller at hostage for their work. What's your experience with this? Have you experienced it? How do you deal with it?

I understand this from a buyer point of view, but it effectively holds the seller hostage for their work. Buyers already have the option to just hit 'request a revision' and then enter absolutely no information - which is a loophole which allows the buyer to just continually extend the review time. I think the loophole around revision requests is something that should be addressed first.

From a selling point of view, revision requests can be frustrating - but, of course, necessary. My issue is that, I clearly state that all of my Gigs have "1 revision" as standard. The reason being, my product takes a long time to create and a long time to export & upload - making even the smallest changes adds a massive amount of time, often making some of my orders cost-ineffective. The problem is - buyers can request revisions as many times as they like. What I mean is, a buyer can click 'request revisions', then receive revised work, and then click 'request revisions' again! They can continue to do this an infinite amount of times - creating a loophole which effectively leaves the seller at hostage for their work. It's almost completely pointless setting the amount of revisions you allow for your Gig. I've been told that the reason for this is that Fiverr effectively can't force the buyer to accept the work and effectively take their money for the product - but there has to be some workaround, sellers need to be protected from being held hostage for their work. What do you think, have you experienced this (as a buyer or seller)?

This is a neat idea! Would save a small amount of time but would be a really nice way to easily speed up workflow.

Actually yes, you guys are correct! 😞

It's really unknown, I can't say for sure. Be active, responsive, get good reviews and be patient. I'm sure Fiverr has a certain amount of people that can be TRS at one time - i guess you just have to wait for there to be an opening in your category!

Keep at it with Fiverr. I don't operate on any other platforms, but from my friends experience I would say Fiver is easily the best platform once you get going. I know its really frustrating - it took me MONTHS to get my first order. I would say set your price as low as you can manage and get a solid amount of orders (25+) before you think about changing your pricing structure to something more long-term. Get the orders, get good reviews - and build from there.

I don't believe they can write a review. If the buyer gets the order cancelled, they will get a refund - but will not be able to write a review. I am pretty certain this is the case.

I'm a chemistry student!! and have been since I started!

Hey people! I'm lucky enough to have been a top rated seller for many months now - and I've completed over 600 orders in the last couple of years. I'd really like to help out any sellers, old or new, with any questions they may have. Ask away!!
