In this article we
shall look at ways to make money using Fiverr. Now if you are not familiar with
Fiverr it's a website where you complete tasks for people & they pay you,
yup you guessed it, a fiver!
What sort of tasks?
Well anything really, it may be to write an article for them, build a single
page website, advertise their business, design a logo. Honestly the list really
is endless.
It's all about you
being able to do something that maybe someone else can't, or can't be bothered.
Like any business model they pay you for a service.
How To Make Money
Using Fiverr
You may be
scratching your head now trying to think of what you can do, so let me help you
with that. There are other websites out there that can make these jobs very
simple for you. For example why not offer a gig (that's what Fiverr call the
jobs you offer) to design & supply a 3D eBook image. You may not have a
clue how to go about doing that but if you go to a site like myecovermaker.com
they will generate a 3D eBook image for you, all you do is design it how you
want it in an easy 3 step process.
Content writing,
there's another one. If you have been reading other posts on here, then chances
are you are already researching & honing your writing skills anyway. This
way you can practice & get paid for it.
Maybe you have a
Twitter or Facebook account with a large number of friends or followers, you
could offer a gig to tweet or post something to advertise someones business.
Translation, can
you speak a second language? If not there are plenty of free online translation
services (be careful doing it that way though, as some don't get it quite
right) offer a gig to translate articles.
Some people offer
the service of writing & compiling a CV or covering letter for job
applications.
Honestly the list
really is endless. So If you are not familiar with Fiverr I would advise
clicking in the link, & have a browse around all the different categories,
you will be amazed at what's on there.
Write a list of the
gigs you think you could offer, sign up for a free account & you're set!
Oh & don't
worry about it just being a fiver, you can offer "add ons" at extra
cost too, that's also an excellent way of increasing your income on there. Have
a look at other peoples ads & learn from them.

Offer More Gigs:
One thing that you should avoid on Fiverr is losing customers. You should offer more than one gig on Fiverr and if a client clicks on your gig, finds it inappropriate for his work than rather losing that client you can show other gigs as promotion and there's a chance that the client may like any other gig of yours. When a client clicks a gig and checks the description of the gig than Fiverr shows the client all other gigs available by the same seller on a side of the page. So a seller/contractor should have more than one gig available for sale on Fiverr.

A Bonus Offer:
For the sellers on Fiverr, to get a good sale and attracting many clients you can give some bonus offers with your gig. The bonus offer should be of use to the clients. For example a seller who is doing a gig on some business counseling can give an eBook bonus offer for his first ten clients or a seller who is offering a five photo editing gig, they can give one free photoshopped image bonus offer for the first few clients.

Get Customer's
Feedback:
If you are a seller on Fiverr and want to excel as a seller, want to top the charts then you need to give value to your customers. Once they order your gig, you deliver their gig, this is the start of your relationship as a seller with a client, you should ask for their feedback. A customer's feedback is a key to success as they can admire your work and can also criticize your work. In case of criticism use it to improve your work and quality. Another advantage of a positive feedback about your gig is that other clients and buyers can view it and it will overall raise your gig's rating.

Use The Right Keywords
Fiverr is very
competitive and for clients to find your gig you need to use the right
keywords. For example, if you offer writing services you should use keywords
such as: writing, writer, articles, article writer. Different clients use
different keywords to find the service that they are looking for; therefore,
when you use different keywords you increase your chances of getting more
clients.
Have A Clear
Description
There is no client
who will buy from you if you don't clearly state what you are offering. For
example, if you are offering transcription services you need to say the number
of transcription minutes that you are offering. You also need to say the type
of transcription that you are offering-whether verbatim or non-verbatim. Lastly,
you should mention how long it will take you to complete the work.
Offer A Bonus
Who hates a free
product or service? You should identify your repeat customers and offer them a
bonus. For example, if you write 100 word product descriptions for $5, you should
offer your repeat customers 130 word product descriptions for $5.
Doing this makes
your customers feel appreciated and they buy more for you which results to you
making more money.
Make Use Of Gig
Extras
Gig extras allow
you to make more than $5 for every gig that you sell. You should create a gig
extra when you have an extra feature in your gig. For example, if you deliver
your gig in five days, you can create a gig extra where you deliver the same
gig in one or two days.
When creating gig
extras you need to be cautious that you don't increase the amount of time that
you take to complete the gig.
Conclusion
These are tips on
how to increase your sales (thus increase the amount of money you make) on
Fiverr. To increase traffic to your gig you should share it as many time as you
can. Some of the best platforms to share include: Twitter, Facebook, and Fiverr
forum.
