I've made ok money with Fiverr and I don't even have super appealing gigs, just basic stuff that people need. I made $100 in my first three months, which isn't incredible but ok considering I was building up my reputation and moving up the seller ranks. Sometimes the orders just trickle in, other times I get overwhelmed with them. It just depends on how you market your gig on Fiverr, what you're offering, if there's a need for what you're offering, and also if you're doing more for a better price than what similar gigs are doing. It helps if the gig doesn't take you much time to complete as well. Once you hit the next level higher of seller you can start adding gig extras and then you have the potential to make $60 per gig (minus Fiverr and PayPal fees of course).
