How to get orders on Fiverr

Most of the world’s workforce is going Freelance. Because freelancing is the name of freedom. In freelancing, you have the liberty to pick the projects of your own choice, pick up your own work hours and you can make unlimited money. In the recent world, self-employment is a dream of almost everybody. Who does not want to be his/her own boss and work hard to build a secure and successful career where they can be financially independent.

The popularity of the freelancing and the freelance sites is on its peak. In the competition when all freelance marketplaces are promoting a direct bidding model, Fiverr, a freelance marketplace works like an E-commerce store where people are selling their services like products on E- commerce store. Buyers come on the website, search for the services, they want to buy, see different Gigs. When they like a Gig which is basically a service showcasing pictures, description, price and a timeline, they buy a Gig by placing the order. The freelancer whose service is purchased, just like an E-commerce product, delivers the work on the time and gets paid.

This is actually how Fiverr works. Fiverr is getting popularity day-by-day because orders on Fiverr extend from $5 to $10k unlike other freelance marketplaces in which the budget of the all the projects are almost same amount. Another big difference between the Fiverr and the other freelance marketplaces like UpWork and Freelancer is that on those websites, client post a project, a relevant freelancer which has same niche, bid on the project and if the employer like the proposal, he/she will award the project to the particular freelancer. 

As a freelancer on Fiverr, you don’t have a much control on your Gig but if you do certain things, there is a chance that your Gig ‘ll appear on the top of the search results and could be purchased.

So, the main point here is that which factors make Gig promoted on Fiverr and have many chances of being purchased.
