How to get your first order on fiverr
when I started fiverr wasn’t full with freelancers. but now it has too many and fiverr not accepting new accounts very easily.
but still you can get your account approved for selling. if you ask “why fiverr not approved my account” we’ll it might be because of what service you choose to sell.
or you trying to sell something that fiverr not accept. Orr you don’t research. many thing’s that can get your account banned for life. first you need to make sure your account is safe. so be careful with these,
- fake profile picture
- fake names
- spammy gigs
- spamming keywords
- not verifying id
- asking for reviews
- trying to make second account with same ip
- fake orders
there’s more. so it’s true everything on this list can get your account banned. that’s why you need to be careful with your actions. many users unsuccessful on fiverr because they inspired by someone’s story.
even me. someone post that they got a new car just doing fiverr jobs. but users doesn’t know that the people who succeed in fiverr have skills and experience.
if you start doing freelance you must have a good skill. if you don’t have one you need to learn more about it. YouTube has so many videos and you can find anything. this is the first step to becoming a successful freelancer online.
mastering your niches. good now you know whats needs first.

now let’s make your gigs. so what is a gig? gig is like a small shop on a big market. if your shop has what people looking for people might looking Forward to get it. here first impressions,
- gig image
- gig title
these two is your first impression. the title will help you get found on fiverr. the image will attract more people. that’s it.
but if your niche has more people ( more then 5000 ) will hard to get an order. and that’s why you need to niche down your topic. what’s that mean ?
when your gig has more competitors you will need to find something that has less sellers on it. that’s why you need to niche down. here an example,
your niche 》business card design 》niche down 》business card for plumbers.
there many thing’s to try. when looking for a less competitive gigs make sure to check how well other sellers doing on that specific niche. this is very important. there is more less competitive gigs with more demand but those niches are hard to do.
another thing is title when you create a title make sure to use keywords that people might use when they search. also you can add keywords to description add at least 3 keywords. don’t spam with keywords.
your description need to be clear and correct for your gig. don’t write unnecessary stuff. Just tell what will you offer.
when adding images make sure to add high-quality images. also it need to be your designs. do not put someone else images on fiverr. the images need to show what your gig offer. when your gig published make sure everything is done.
most people say stay online is useless. yes it can be because no one can stay 24hrs online. but you can check every few hours.
so that’s end our 1st lesson. what did you learned from this article. good bye see you on next lesson.
Next lesson is keywords, its important to use right keywords. but how can you find these keywords. so its simple and hard most common way to find keywords is typing related words on fiverr search bar,
and fiverr gives similar keywords related to your word. or another way is when you click on the fiverr search bar it shows most popular categories and keywords.
but do not use the same keywords that fiverr shows you because most people already using it. and the category fiverr shows are very high demand niches. so even you find keywords it won’t get any orders.
as I know most crowded niche are
- graphic design
but still you can find categories that people might interested in. as I mentioned earlier niche down is important. when you find your niche use keywords on your title, tags and description.
when you create your title you need to use extra words to make it more searchable.
