vickieito's post in Will Seller Plus make my completed orders get paid faster as well? was marked as the answer
The 7-day clearance and Early Payout features only apply to new orders placed after joining Seller Plus. All orders that are already pending payments will still take 14 days to clear.

vickieito's post in How to extend review time was marked as the answer
Hi @thea_nrws,
Tell your buyer to go to their delivery and at the bottom, they will see two buttons:
If they click on "I'm not ready yet," they will be given several choices why:
To extend their review period, the buyer can click on "I need more time to review." Buyers can request up to 5 days at a time to extend their review period.
To request a revision, the buyer can click the first button, "I still need revisions." This will keep the order open indefinitely until there is a new delivery. Buyers will need to include details on what revisions they would like to make.
I've had buyers use either of these buttons to extend their review period.

vickieito's post in Is avg. Selling price my total earnings? was marked as the answer
Hi @bwembyamubanga, When you set your prices, just remember that 20% of all your Earnings will go to Fiverr. So if your listed price is $115, Fiverr gets $23 (20%) and you get $92 (80%). The buyer also pays transactional fees with every order, so that's what the $7.15 is.
Your Average Selling Price (ASP) is the average selling price of each order over the last 30-day period (before Fiverr's 20% fees are taken out).
$92, or 80% of your order.

vickieito's post in Deleted Conversation by Accident was marked as the answer
Have they ordered your services in the past? If so, you can send a new message from your "Growth & Marketing" tab and "Contacts." That will let you send them a new message. Otherwise, if they are a prospective client, there's no reason to reach out to them. If they are interested in ordering, they will reach out to you in their own time. If you reach out to them, it might be considered spam.
Edit: I just found out how to restore any deleted conversation in your inbox (even if the buyer hasn't placed an order with you):
Type in: www.fiverr.com/inbox/username
This won't work if no previous conversation exists, but it'll bring up all of your previous communications. Only message the buyer if they are expecting a response or quote from you.

vickieito's post in Impression dropped drastically was marked as the answer
Hi @capablethings - Honestly, the only time I've seen impressions plummet like this is when there is a negative private review (which you'll never see). You might want to read this article by @williambryan392:

It's a myth that editing your gigs hurts your rank/visibility:
It might affect your impressions for a couple of days, but editing your gigs, especially if you are just adding a video, shouldn't cause your impressions to plummet (and stay down) like you see in your graph. Here's a great article by @frank_d explaining what happens when you publish or update a gig:
https://community.fiverr.com/forums/topic/274399-what-happens-when-you-publish-a-new-gig-a-pro-sellers-guide/
Although you have only 5-star reviews in public, your buyer might have left a negative private review. The private reviews hold a lot of weight because that's when buyers can express their true feelings. Here's what @williambryan392 says about these:
Regardless of WHY your impressions are down, you've got a problem. Now you have to figure out how to get out of this slump and regain visibility in search again. Here are a few articles that can help you do just that:

vickieito's post in Among my clients was marked as the answer
Unfortunately, no. You can only add buyers who have a website.
This is how I did it:
I save screenshot copies like the one above as documented proof of the buyer's approval to add them as my Top Client. I suggest you do the same for the approvals that you received.

vickieito's post in How to Overcome that dreaded 1 ⭐ Review was marked as the answer
A buyer has 10 days to leave a review on this order. After the buyer leaves feedback, the seller will be prompted to leave a review on the buyer (in order for the buyer's review to be posted immediately to the seller's profile). Once the buyer's review is visible, the seller can respond to the review. Both of the seller's reviews will post immediately.
If the seller chooses not to leave a review of the buyer, the buyer's review will not show up on the seller's profile for 10 days. When it does show up, the seller will not have a chance to respond to the review.
Note: If the buyer leaves a review right at the 10-day deadline, the seller may not be able to leave a review.

vickieito's post in Buyer Request Marketplace - is it gone? was marked as the answer
Hi @dana__b, you're correct, I was one of the sellers that was "matched" to your brief.
I did consider your brief since I love writing resumes and profiles for career changers and SAHM's. I'm a career changer myself, having transitioned from 17 years as a food scientist to doing data entry, writing resumes, and offering other services on Fiverr. I love my work now because it allows me to work from home and be there for my kids.
I feel that a PhD in Psychology transitioning to a career in the music industry is not a long shot, especially with your volunteer experience in concert and live music. Music and psychology are deeply intertwined, since music is meant to evoke certain emotions and enhance the quality and overall enjoyment of its listeners. So there's a lot of fun connections you can weave into your resume and profile to show off those qualifications.
However, I also noted your strong plea to the music industry, which is one of the reasons why I declined your brief. I do review and optimize resumes for those in the music industry and production, but I'm not specifically in the music industry. So I thought it was best for you to explore working with those sellers first. You can type in "resume for music" or "entertainment resume" to hopefully find sellers who are more in line with what you are looking for.
I have better luck using Fiver's search than submitting Buyer Requests or Buyer Briefs, because like you said, sometimes you get sellers who aren't the best matches for what you are looking for (they only happen to be in the category that you selected).

vickieito's post in How works with Fiverr Milestone? was marked as the answer
You can set up any custom offer as a milestones order. Milestones orders require at least $50 per milestone, and at least 2 milestones per milestones order. Milestones orders allow you to get paid after each milestone. For you, you could set up each milestones as a day's worth of work. Alternatively, you could set up weekly subscription orders to cover your daily work.
It might be helpful to know what services you offer, to know which one will work better for you. Can you explain?

Hi @fahadislamjuel, there's a tab called "Trending" that you can see the top-trending gigs on Fiverr:
However, even in the best-selling gigs on Fiverr, there will be a lot of sellers who aren't making money. Instead, you should focus on skills that you are good at and can deliver quality work on.
