Fiverr Sellers IMPORTANT NOTICE

Hey guys, today I noticed strange thing, half of my gigs - dissapeared/decreased in seach by rating, I noticed it happened not only with my gigs, fiverr have no answer on this question, they answer with template answers.

Main thing is I lost half of my business, I get about 200 orders daily, but today it's x2 less because of this.

Wanted to ask if somebody noticed such thing and hope we should write about to support.

Wow! That's a big earnings drop bro. Have you tried backlinks to your gigs? That increases your rankings on Fiverr I've seen.
 
What a mess...a guy with 200 feedbacks is ranking more than the guy with 700 feedbacks

I seriously don't get what are they doing it...I dont think they will face any serious loss too as anyhow they are getting orders and they getting 1$ commission for each...

So they can keep shuffling their search as they like

Thats why we shouldn't depend on anyone like how we depend on Google or Fiverr....

I hope Fiverr reverts the changes soon as its really bad for the old level 2/top rated sellers
 
I didn't know there is a reason for the orders drop and now when I see this thread all is clear. Fiverr is ridiculous now ....
 
They say "we are trying to give to all a oportunity"
I guest thats ok but on ranking search its pretty fuckup
also if u search for seo , first page results , all the sellers got "seo" in their nicks

take a look

The trick with the names is old - since August 2011. However, search results are pretty messy now ...
 
Fiverr do this every month for few days. I can`t understand this too. BTW, I don`t give a fu6k. With less number of orders I will have holiday tomorrow. My orders number today is 20 from 30-40 as normal (half reduced). I am sure everything will be ok in 40 hours. Fiverr admins are not bots and I don`t want to work their job.

The things I HATE in the period while fiverr get bugged:
- I can`t do orders, just get 503 error and hitting refresh it place second order
- and really HATE - the non loyal competitors , thinks that I get their orders and order my gigs just to post negative feedbacks.

I have loyal buyers, that can`t order in this period too, so don`t worry. Just check your competitors and you will see, that they have lower number of active orders too :).
 
Anyone saw any improvement in their rankings? Mine is still dumped somewhere
 
Currently I can't see any improvements. They are still as messed up as they were after the last change.

What seems to be the most odd thing is that the sorting by rating isn't working at all.

Positions don't have anything to do with the specific keyword nor the amount of feedback.
 
Hey alman what a hell are you selling when you have 200 orders daily, you can pm me with the answer if you want to share some secrets, thanks. ;)
 
So do you people think Fiverr will revert the changes made? As we are badly affected from this bug..and Fiverr support is not even understanding that...They are just repeating that they giving more limelight to others... :(
 
i guest they wont
coz its been several days since this happens

the awkward moment when you have an option in your search to order the results by rating and it's doing the opposite or some random ordering at best - dear fiverr, this called misleading of buyers, so either remove this option entirely or rename it to something else

i'm decoding this as a sign to not waste our talent for $4 a pop, if they want noobs as sellers, let them be

it's weird tho, in most places being a top rated seller/power seller comes with benefits and not with disadvantages

we basically have 2 choices:
1 flip our top rated seller account (paypal details luckily can be changed again)
1a) start it from scratch with (an)other account(s)
1b) turn the table and try some arbitrage

most likely i'll be going with option 1, there's no point in waiting more, obviously they like how it's now

only one thing is constant in this business and that's the changing, adaptation skills are needed, otherwise we are becoming into the thylacines of IM :)
 
You know how the Google dance goes. I am sure this applies to ranked and promoted pages within fiverr as well.

From all of the sites I own, 1 had a PR2 page drop to N/A for no reason that I could find and then 1 week later BAM right back to PR2 again so it is probably the same issue...
