Today I am going to give you an idea how to earn money on fiverr with next to none coding skills.
What is our gig going to be? Well, we are gonna "convert" websites to mobile apps.
Why? Because it requires minimum coding skills to make a blank app with a webview.
For iOS apps, I was using Swift and for Android apps I was using Kotlin. You can do it in any technology you are familiar with, since making a blank app with a webview is really easy.
So, here are the steps:
1. Create a gig offering conversion of website to mobile app.
2. Invest some time into making a really appealing thumbnail.
3. Split your gig into 3 packages.
- First package is just an apk or ipa file
- Second package includes publishing app to the app store or play store
- Third package includes all of the above, but for both ios and android
4. Add as many gig extras as you can. That means also adding another system, posting to store, etc as gig extras. People will usually go for the full package and still pick these things from gig extras, resulting in you getting more money for the same thing.
5. Now that you have set up a gig, head over to facebook.
6. Join as many buy/sell and service offering groups.
7. Post a link to your gig once a day to each of these groups. You can also find some other way to promote, but I was doing it like this.
8. When you get your first potential customer, always ask for the website before they order your gig.
9. Paste the url in your blank app with a webview(shich you should already have set up) and see how it looks like in simulator. The whole point of this is making your "app" once and just changing the url for each new order.
10. If it looks good, tell your potential customer that the website is compatible with conversion method you are using and that they can order now.
11. Pay attention to be extremely professional when communicating, since your rating will depend on it and you need 5 star ratings badly.
12. For a first few customers you can do some minor things for free. Lets say you have added making an app icon as a gig extra for $5, well, offer to do that gig extra as a bonus for already purchased gig. That will make them more likely to leave 5 star rating.
13. Oh yes, remember to put a cheap price, since you are just starting.
Keep in mind that fiverr takes 20% from both buyer and seller, meaning if you make a $5 gig, buyer will have to pay $6 and you will get $4.
I earned $235 from five orders(average $47 per order), but after 20% commission I was left with $188. That was my first month. It is not much money, but it took maybe 3h of work total, most of which went to communicating with clients.
