I was caught by surprise by Fiverr's decision to not approve my seller profile.
 
First a notification under the “bell” icon saying:
 Your seller profile was not approved. Check your email for more details.

 With over 22 years of professional experience in my field and an earning capacity over $100k USD per year as contractor, I firmly believed that I have the qualifications and expertise to offer high-quality, trustworthy services on their platform. 

After spending several hours filling my profile at fiverr.com with all their form fields.
 and getting stuck at things like "keywords" that should be "key phrases" without mention that they must have 3 words and 18 characters (20 including spaces!)
 I spent additional hours spanned through a whole week designing a package or “gig” with the experience and the stuff they asked me to fill.
 
did I mentioned the payment and tax verifications ?
 
I have kept my account for some weeks more to starting again, and earn some bucks here,
 but as far I know the “

”, that should be the treat for a fraudster, not for a serious professional.
 
Thinking about Fiverr's right logic to curate their marketplace, it’s a right and a duty, so my opinion is just a drop of water in the sea. 

The blanket rejection without providing specific reasons feels dismissive of my credentials and capabilities.
 As a seasoned professional, I find it disheartening to be denied the opportunity to showcase my skills and services on a reputable platform like Fiverr. 

I would appreciate more transparency from Fiverr regarding their evaluation criteria and decision-making process.
 Outright rejections with vague explanations such as "not meeting the demand for high-quality services from trustworthy freelancers" seem unconvincing and fail to acknowledge the merits of experienced professionals like myself. (and many reading)
 
I remain committed to finding suitable avenues to offer my services and will continue exploring alternative platforms or independent channels to connect with clients who value my expertise and experience. 

By now I will close this chapter being fiveRr one of the worst work rejections I have had,
 not because of the language, but because of the vague arguments exposed
 
Best wishes with your “high-quality, trustworthy services”. 

A home for meaningful connections, peer support, and professional growth.
