Fiverr can be fun & profitable

I am on fiverr as seller for some years now and used to be an active level 2 seller, close to $20K total income.

Not anymore these days as there are just too many buyers asking for $5 custom offers for work that takes an hour or so.

This week, I got another order, $20 to write a selling blog post for an affiliate site, various keywords and product details to be included. I was about to cancel the order but since it is Friday and OpenAI just cut prices, I used the playground for 10 minutes.

Inputs: The product information and a poor press release about the manufacturer.

Command "Generate a blog post with 500 words about XYZ".

Output did not require any work but formatting the titles and save the .docx.

3100 tokens used = 6 Cents cost + 10 minutes of my time.

Buyer accepted immediately and left a 5* review. Profit $15,94. Fun.

Using that OpenAi, can an Ai generated content blog be approved by Google adsense?
 
I see. Thanks a lot. So in your opinion, which one is the best?
It depends on your business requirements. Article Forge is nice for consumers. OpenAI powerful but with many limitations for business use. GPT-J/NeoX are great when you finetune the models.

dude this is pretty smart - great share :D
 
Both Upwork and Fiverr are good platforms to offer your skills. Fiverr buyers are mostly individual buyers, but at Upwork even companies and business organizations hire people (sellers) for work, so the same service one sells for example for US$50 at Fiverr, one can sell that same service at Upwork at atleast 3X of the Fiverr price. At Upwork what matters a lot is proper communication and updating your buyers, at regular intervals, about status of any ongoing project, inspite of Upwork dashboard showing it, at Upwork, send a message as well to the buyer and update the buyer.
 
Fun fact I was offering service in Fiverr 5 years ago, got one very good buyer, he spent like 30k on my service and letely ive found that he become millions worth USA clothes business just using my service and my boosts and interviews in podcasts and other stories about luck and fate and business :) Not sure its fun or sad but more like fun :D
can i pay you to do this again? lol

I tried also to sell this service with openAI, but it is very complicated for a new account to get customers.
So, If you are no more willing to use your fiverr account, I would be very interested to buy it.

PS: nice AI generated image ;)

I recommend also Bloom, LLM like GPT-3 but open source
 
Selling on Fiverr is fun when you make sales at little or no cost. If there are no sales, it becomes difficult.
 
This is basically a method to fool clients. Making money should be about providing something of value to the customer. You know, when you buy a Snickers bar, you get something good to eat. The same when you buy a shirt from Zara.
 
Can you suggest such services, but only other countries? Absolutely all countries where people pay well are interesting!

Fiverr is fun when you get dumb customers
 
Yes Fiverr can be fun but all depends on one's perspective on it. Good money are being made on daily basis with minimal effort in in this year 2022. It is just for one to open his eye, search and see those ways.
 
How so?
The fact that this is a black hat forum doesn't mean people here trick their clients.
I agree. An amazing thing happened once in my whole life - A customer suddenly stopped negotiating with me. I mean he stopped asking for lower price. Can you believe that? I lowered my price, but then he said no. Why did this happen? Because I treated him like a good friend. Because I was very honest with him. A customer can become your lifetime customer if you really care about his needs, if you really try your best to provide value to him/her.
 
The lowest priced gig I have on fiverr is $200. I do this to keep all the cheap clients away, funny thing is no one orders the $200 Option... They mostly order anything from $400 - $1000.
I get one client every 2 months and they spend like crazy... I use to charge $80 for the top plan but learnt my lesson that offering cheap prices attract cheap people.. I do not depend on my fiverr income but right now it's the highest of everything... I just invested alot of time on it and offered premium services for cheap to gain reviews then increased pricing beyond what I feel I am not even worth, after the first few orders I realized my services were worth it and even more... Once I got top rated (in month) I'll increase cost on everything again and give only my regulars the old pricing.

I do find mys of spending twice as much time on each order though, and f I'm charging high I need to be very comfortable with the quality I deliver
Did you sell high priced gig at the very beginning when you just started on Fiverr?
