If Its Too Good To be True, It's Usually on Fiverr.

Exactly, good point!

Also I noticed not to listen to any of the positive reviews unless they contained concrete information. Most of them just say thanks and a little salutation which does not help you at all when making a buying decision.

I would also think that a $5.00 eCover would not look professional at all?

Not the way to promote your services here Synergetics.

Hi Paul,

I totally disagree. You can get things done like SeNuke blasts to build backlinks to your backlinks (link pushing, which is legal) This is helpful if you don't want to spend the money on SeNuke or your time setting up a campaign.

As for book covers... At one point I had my VA (who is also a graphic designer) doing design gigs on Fiverr. I quit having her do that because even though she was doing professional work that was worth more than 10x what she got on Fiverr, people always wanted more than they were paying for. They didn't want to pay for non-copyrighted images or fonts that they wanted. When we added credit for images we used, buyers would reject jobs and complain. It really was a losing situation.

I totally agree with you TeamBringIt.
I have used fiverr several times and although on greater percentage of the times i have used fiverr, i have gotten deliveries that are so poor but occassionally, when i research the sellers very well before buying, i end up getting satisfied.

Just recently, i ordered a gig from a seller who promised to share my link to his facebook friends and also post it to his blog. He delivered the job and when i checked on the proofs provided, i realized that he must have gotten fake friends and even the blog he posted on was a fresh wp blog with the hello world theme.

I requested for a refund but he keeps marking the order as completed. He did that for up to 3 times and i almost forgot about the refund. He was fortunate to have got it marked as completed.

I was not ready to spare him. I voluntarily gave him a PROFESSIONAL negative rating which will scare away any reasonable potential buyers away from him.

But, all the same, we still get good stuffs from some niches on fiverr.

I have never hired someone from Fiverr to do anything for me so I can't comment on too much but I always felt like a $5 for anything could not be too good. I am probably wrong though. Maybe I will take a look at it sometime.

That is right. You don't understand.

When I see my stats on unique visitors go up, when I see my page views go up, when I see my bounce rate come down, when I see my sign ups go up and when I have people actually email me that have come through these channels go up, usually it means these are real human visitors.

There are many thousands upon thousand of people and businesses selling on fiverr, some do it for legitimate reasons, others do it for less ethical reasons. You cannot simply lump everyone into one pile and say traffic is certainly not one of the things fiverr cannot supply when the facts state otherwise. What is this some kind of new website prejudice? Lol!

You have to understand that usually the traffic providers that do a good job just leverage fiverr so that they can attract customers to their own business and usually they have to be clever enough when doing it so not to get caught blatantly promoting their services outside of fiverr.

This one particular seller uses a very clever yet simple technique where he routes all the traffic from his blog and site network back through his own domain so I can see exactly that it came from his website.

Ask and you shall receive, right? Or in this case seek and you shall find...

My gain, your loss.

one of my friends got banned from google adsense because of the spammy traffic he bought on fiverr, I have never look at that site in my life since I got those feedback.Just not interested
