So I don't think there is a surefire method, but I do think there are a few genuine strategies to boost your chances. Firstly, optimize your gig titles, descriptions, and tags with relevant keywords. Research all of the relevent keywords, tags, etc and create forum/blog posts. Become active in the forums. Showcase your expertise, provide clear pricing, and offer outstanding customer service in your offering. Actively promote your gigs on social media platforms and engage with potential buyers. I have considered paying for social media marketing, but won't until I see more promising results (I too, am struggling with conversions). Lastly, focus on delivering exceptional work, garner positive reviews, and cultivate a strong reputation.
