Fiverr reviews Question

Hello,
Im not sure if this is in the correct forum, if not please let me know where to put it.

My question is regarding Fiverr reviews.
Im getting a few exchange reviews with other sellers but someone has told me that a review from a seller account is not as effective as from a purely buyers account.

Can someone explain me how this actually works?
I can understand that when some genuine buyer comes to my gig and sees that my reviews are from other sellers that he might be a bit suspicious.
However, when it comes to getting more impressions on my gigs, will a seller account review have less effect than a buyer account review?

Thanks a lot!

Yes, a buyer only review has more value and effect than that of a seller.

But any review is better than none, so get it clear. Hope they all 5 stars though

Your overthinking it, 99.9% of visitors on your gig reads the reviews and don`t check who the reviewer is. If your talking about Fiverr algorithm, then that may have effect, maybe someone other with knowledge can enlighten you there .. =)

Yes thats

Yes thats exactly what Im talking about. The Fiverr algorithm. Cause I was doing Fiverr exchange and then someone told me that reviews from sellers are not the same as from buyers. So wanted to double check that here.

Im way more interested in the Fiverr algorithm as I want to push my gigs so they get more Impressions. I don't really worry about the other buyers checking the reviews that much

And in what way it is better/ has more value and effect?
Im specifically looking into gaining more impressions on my gigs.

As in the algorithm specifically not with viewers of your profile.

Organically every Fiverr seller grows by selling to buyers, so promote your gig outside Fiverr or use tips and tricks shared in this forum by re-targeting buyers from other sellers in your niche via email marketing.

If you can afford ads then go for the best targeting an audience that's interested in your services.

Everyone starts somewhere but not everyone stays where they started, genius and success leaves clues - find it and follow.

All the best

Both reviews (from a seller account and purely buyer account) are considered the same by Fiverr algorithms.
