[Official feedback thread re: the new leveling system]

I, one of Fiverr's most profitable, long term sellers, am currently sitting at an overall success score of 4. I have no idea how to get out of, or overcome this, so, I, personally, am dreading tomorrow..... but that's just me. I was doing wonderfully until this new system went into place. I can't say that I like it.

Let's turn the tables a bit. Anyone wanna help me -- a Fiverr veteran seller (6 digit sales) -- figure out how to get the Fiverr visibility and orders rolling again? Or, am I doomed, now, to reside in "low performance" territory, and not be seen in the marketplace, all because of things that I cannot control? Private reviews for example.

This new seller level system is absolutely killing the profitability of some great Fiverr sellers.

 

I can surely help you.

 

There is no set rank in the Fiverr search system, nor are sellers guaranteed any specific placement in the results. The algorithm gives everyone a chance to be seen, unique to every search, and according to the algorithmic factors connected to the person searching.

 

Perhaps now might be a good time to go find some of your target customers, and tell them about your searches (i.e., effective marketing), and bring them to you, instead of expecting Fiverr to provide all of your customers. Marketing and promotion are things every good independent freelancer needs to be willing to do on their own. You are the only person responsible for your success.
