One of the fastest growing freelancing sites these days is fiverr.com. The website works differently than other freelancing sites, so it might not work for some people, but to others it's the best way of earning some extra money. So, if you're a mom blogger or any one looking out to make some extra cash, check out this site and become a top seller here.
Here's how this bold new freelancing site works:
For this to happen, you need to first set up your gig which people can order. Once the gig has been ordered from you, you must complete it, hand over to the buyer and you're paid. Easy enough to do?
As a seller of your unique talents, you need to do a few things to set you up your business:
2. Create your gig: This means you create a resume and portfolio so that your buyers consider you apt for their project. However, you must not expect to get a gig early on in your association with fiverr because it is difficult to get one.
3. Create unique gig titles: Your titles should be catchy and attractive or no one will want to respond to them. They should be unique in their content and as an offering. For example, ‘I will create the most amazing whiteboard presentation for marketing personnel for $5.’ Can you read the confidence in that statement? That's what people are looking for.
4. Describe your gig in 450 characters: This site gives you 1200 characters to express your gig perfectly. Be judicious in your wordings and let your buyer know exactly what your role will be and how adept you are at producing a perfect job. Add a dash of creativity to all your facts and number crunching and you might just be the one handpicked for the job.
5. Use keywords to tag your gig appropriately: It may be very difficult to locate your gig if it isn't tagged correctly. To know which keywords are trending on Google Adwords, it's good to check there before making a final gig on fiverr.com.
6. Use attractive images and videos for your gig: That helps attracting your clients.
If you want to be a top seller on fiverr.com, it is necessary that you get a number of positive reviews, deliver each gig punctually, follow the rules of the site and be highly responsive.
Also if you like, you can order gigs on fiverr instead of being a seller. You can find graphic designers for your blog/website, freelance writers, online marketing, video editors, product reviewers, and more- all starting prices is $5! What a great deal!!!!

You would be a great freelance writer too Courtney, your writing skills is superb!
DeleteI love Fiverr. It brings me in a decent side income each month and most of the services I offer only take me 10 minutes or so to complete. I am a Top Rated Seller too so I am able to have gig extras which allow me to sell my services for more than $5. Since I joined I have completed more than 700 orders and I have a 100% positive rating. Fiverr is definitely a site that I would recommend to anyone who wants to bring in extra income.
ReplyDeleteI thought about you doing this article Victoria! You are the prefect example of someone that makes a good amount of money with Fiverr. I know I could do it but balancing my blogging, full time job, and household is just too much for me.
DeleteThis is great, if I only had 5 more hours to a day!
ReplyDeleteI think you could do it Antionette. I have seen people advertising their services to review products for $5.

ReplyDeleteI checked the link and it wasn't broken.
DeleteI've browsed on there before. There's some pretty funny job offers/creations listed, too :). People are creative!
ReplyDeleteI know right Celeste! People will do anything to make $5 and the funny thing too is that people are buying those types of gigs.
