Hi there, I was outsourcing a lot of SEO task but I discover that you can find a lot of gigs on fiver that help to boost your rankings for a half of the price. So let's create a list with the most effective SEO gigs and how you will implement in a "action plan".

Any experience or idea?

    I bought a sinper site training course recently that suggested using just 3 Fiverr gigs per site could rank a site high: a social bookmarking gig, an .edu link gig, and a blog comment gig. Haven’t tried it yet though.

    Really interested in other's thoughts on this for ranking micro niche sites.

      This plan sounds kind of like an oxymoron to me.

      Let's develop a great SEO plan that we don't have to do anything and it will only cost us $20.

      Yeah, that should work.

      There are some cool things you can find at Fiverr. I've used them for some graphic needs. Got a couple of videos done.

      SEO is something I would run from on there. The ONLY thing I would consider buying on there that has anything to do with SEO is maybe some bookmarking gigs just because it is probably easier to spend $5 then to do it myself. Social Bookmarking has very little SEO value though anyhow.

      Think about this, these people are only making about $4 a gig. How much time and/or effort do you think they are going to put into your gig? I'll tell you. About 30 seconds. They are just using software on sites that have already been spammed to death.

      If you buy a blog commenting gig, guess what? They are just using a list of autoapprove blogs and running it through Scrapebox. You know what those links are worth? Less than the $5 you spent on them. Those sites will have hundreds of links on them, making your link worthless. In fact, your link has probably been relegated to page 2 of the comments, which is a PR n/a or PR 0 webpage.

      Same thing for someone promising .edu backlinks. They are just spamming autoapprove .edu sites. Worthless.


      I would say you get what you pay for at Fiverr, but honestly some of the graphic and video work would I have had done would cost a lot more than $5 if I went elsewhere for it.

        I'm not disputing the fact that there are a lot of crap seo jobs on fiverr that you should avoid but what makes you think you can get graphic and video work done that is worth a lot more than $5 but it is impossible to get decent backlink work done?

        There are some good link building offers on fiverr. You do have to dig through a lot of crap to find a good one but they are out there. It just doesn't make sense to me to use one logic for backlink services and different logic for graphics and videos.

        It doesn't make sense to me to say that at less than $4 per gig no one would spend the time to do a good job building links but then to say you have had graphic and video work done that would have cost a lot more somewhere else. Why do the graphic and video guys do a good job for $4 but not the link builders?

          makes perfect sense.

          A) There are simple graphic jobs that you can do in photoshop in a few minutes. The only thing you can do in a few minutes with SEO is do a blast which is low quality

          B) the price disparity between getting a good photoshop guy and five dollars is much lower that what you will get for a good seo that can do more than blast.

          We need to cut this total nonsense that you can run a lucrative real life business with little work and $5 gigs. This mentality is trashing up the whole place even more than it used to.

          Like I said before whats next how you can get great SEO from a anything for a dollar site. Stop the insanity

            I'm not saying that fiverr has the highest quality link building service available but I have ordered some gigs for what I would consider decent quality links.

            I've had someone do blog comments on blogs with on page PR and the comments were relevant to the post, not just the typical "nice post, thanks for the info".

            I've also used a gig where I give them an article that I wrote and spun and they submit the article to seo linkvine, my article network, and article ranks for $5. These may not be considered "high quality" links but I consider them decent quality. They have my anchor text within the context of the article. A membship to all 3 of those services would cost over $200 per month so to have someone submit them for me is a pretty good deal for $5.

            Are they the best links you can get? Of course not. But I do think they are decent quality and certainly worth more than $5.

              Yeah I get you. You can luck out sometimes and get someone who is desperate for a little cash and ignorant of how they can spend their time but how long will that last before they wake up and move on? What we have in this thread is not some hits and misses with fiverr but someone actually thinking they can develop a long term plan and strategy around it and I still think its silly.

              Frankly I thing there is no greater sign that people are not making real money with IM or SEO when theres this fascination with $5 services. Seriously if I am making serious cheddar would I want to sit down and devise and implement the best seo strategy based on $5 workers? Makes no sense. If I want to play around every now and again then fine but an entire strategy around either stupid or unreliable workers (I refer to someone who you could trust not just per gig but going forward long term)?

              Nope. My business is worth more to me than that.

          If what you are saying is true, you are the exception, not the rule.

          All I'm saying is if you are going to go the Fiverr route for SEO, be well aware of the risks involved.

    I have been wary of fiverr for a while. I strongly agree with MikeFriedman about using fiverr for SEO purposes. Most offers on fiverr are not going to put a lot of time and effort into thier work for $5 less commision. Some do as they use it as a platform to promote there business, so are prepared to lose money upfront to gain work at full price later on, however I think they are the exception rather than the rule.

          I found a lot of gigs that are good for SEO and is not just think that with $5 dollars you will rank a site, but you can combine for example:

          rss feed submissions
          social bookmarks
          directories submisions
          articles
          gob and edu backlinks
          angela style backlinks
          manual blog comments
          ping.fm and onlyware accounts setting up

          thats $40 dollars per week and I think is a good strategie

                Some of the so called SEO experts is making something that is really simple making it look like a very complex task that they are the only one qualified to do it so they can over charge the clients.

                Also, $4 maybe for you is not worth it but if you are a true expert you would have consider that a lot of these folks who are only working for $4 lives in a country that regular working folks gets paid $50 per month in salary. So, yeah $4 per gig at 100 gigs a month is a goldmine and YOU BET I WILL BE WILLING TO DO MY BEST to maintain quality so that my clients keeps coming back, put food in the table for my children.

                The only reason that this SEO experts hates fiverr is because it is undermining there so called expertise that there are charging too much and in fact behind those closed doors they are hiring the same fiverr sellers as virtual assistants to run there own SEO business.

                P.s. just to be clear I'm addressing the so called "SEO Experts" not you edpudol1973. Take pride in your work.

                I wouldn't. Why would I when I think those kinds of links are low quality? Its nothing personal to your service I just know that the links he said he was provided are junk - low quality links.

    Mike A. I agree that a lot of the services will be here today and gone tomorrow but some of the guys that submit your spun articles to some of the popular blog networks have been doing that for a long time and still offer the service.

    Of course it would be foolish to rely entirely on fiverr for all of your seo but when it comes to something like blog network submissions I think it's actually a better deal to have someone on fiverr submit an article to 3 different networks for you than to sign up for all of the different networks yourself.

    I think we are pretty much in agreement that seo is very important and you don't want to have someone spamming away, getting crappy links to your money sites. I'm just saying that there are a few decent gigs for seo. I do a lot more than just a few fiverr gigs to get my sites to rank though.

    everyone is right. Using Fiverr for SEO is nonsense. The best gigs on Fiverr is not graphic or voiceovers. They are the females who will become my facebook girlfriend for a day or video chat with me for 2 minutes. I've bought some and couldn't have been happier. A+++ will buy again.

    It seems the Fiverr SEO gigs fall into three categories:
    1) creating fake forum profiles,
    2) adding your site to stats pages, and
    3) using scrapebox, xrumer or senuke to bomb unprotected WordPress blogs with spammy comments.

    Of these three techniques, #2 is the only one ok of course, and that’s only because it’s $5. It will get you links, though not high-quality ones, and isn’t likely to cause a Google timeout.

    you think anybody on fivver has any regards for your website or the long-term consequences of spamming?

    nobody's going to put in any effort to make long lasting links for your site. either you fork out hundreds a month to "professional" services like rankpay or do it yourself. you can expect to get nothing but spamlinks from those gigs.

    Posting the question on this forum is like asking a bunch of insurance agents "what do they think about self insuring?" Fiverr is a lot like odesk and others. You can get things done for less if you due some due diligence, and set reasonable expectations.

    Fiverr has a "top rated seller" criteria. Some of the advertisers have completed 1000's of gigs with 100% customer satisfaction. And if you aren't happy you can get a refund.

    Just remember people in many parts of the world $5 dollars is a fortune. The average wages in many parts of Asia is about $50 dollars a month, so for them to get $5 for a couple of hours works represents a very good deal.

    I've noticed a trend on WF. Most of the people who complain about Fiverr are those who sell WSO for more money. Or those who have little experience with SEO, buy $200 worth of backlink blasts, get a warning letter from Google Webmaster Tools stating they are doing unnatural link building, then cry Fiverr is bad because they built too many links too fast.

    I use fiverr often to rank my websites. I used web2.0 link wheels to guest blog posting. I've ranked one keyword to #3 in Google for a keyword that pays good on adsense. I invested $30 and now earn $10-12 per day on adsense.

    So if fiverr is so bad, then why did $30 investment earn me over $750 in profit so far?

    Fiverr is a tool. If you use it correctly, you will get GREAT results. If you are reckless, you will get bad results. Just do your homework.

      A fiverr seller who claims it works and has an unverifiable income report? I'd say thats kind of a trend too. Seriously I would take the PR9 claim out of your offer. NO one who knows about PR9s really believes you have a legit one with all its links intact selling it in a package with Pr7 and PR6 for one time payment of under $120. Real Pr9s are rare and don't grow on trees

      Wikipedia and adobe are PR9s. Thats the kind of mad High quality links you have to get to have a real PR9

    lol those threads are getting sick. Whoever keeps defending fiverr SEO is pretty funny. Feel free to check some of those 'top rated sellers' selling 40k SB blasts for 5$ , they have 5000 + feedbacks and 98,5% of their buyers have no clue about what are they doing. Just check some comments and you'll see who's the typical fiverr SEO buyer.

    In the end there's nothing really worth even those 5 bucks , the only legit links you may find are some pr2 blog posts , which could be non-spammed basically because everyone is busy buying the whole set of super pr7-8-9 blog posts for 5$.

    On the second note use some brain people , do you think that someone with a proven method would waste their precious time to build links on your site for 4$ instead building 10 sites daily and blasting them 24/24 to earn some REAL MONEY?

    There are many services web based which offer blog comments /bookmarks/wiki blasts for 2$ online and the quality is 50 times higher, so basically you are tossing your money in the wc.

    Fiverr is funny and you can find interesting gems , personally I bought many videos , voice overs , testimonials etc , but I challenge you to move a single money keyword usign fiverr gigs and spending LESS than on a decent SEO service.

    There's a ton of "SEO experts providers" which are basically re-selling fiverr crap at 20x price , and you can basically say THANKS to our WSO forum for this , there's a lot of people suggesting to start your own business following their model.


    Also I would add that fiverr SEO threads are popping up one every 3-4 days(thanks again to the WSO sellers) , try to do a search on the forums and find ONE success story , ONE keyword that ranked high using fiverr gigs . A friendly advice was given many times , Yukon , Mike and many others are basically trying to help , as in the best chance you will lose 5 bucks , in the worst scenario you may even end to do some damage on the site.

    Man, this kind of bums me out as I finally after hearing so much about this site took a peak recently. I thought there was some cool and even fun stuff being offered. I agree you have to simply do a thorough check of what your gong to purchase to make sure it will help and not harm you.

    There are some good gigs on there. I get some 5 or so niche related dofollow backlinks via blog comments for 5$ and it saves me a truck load of time. I need these type of links for diversity. Obviously buying 50,000 blog comments is not going to be good but the one thing being said again and again on this thread is that some gigs are good and some are not. To say all the gigs are useless is naive or else a blatant attempt to mislead people.

      All this coming for a post that tells us that 5 blog comments are worth $5 and no verification of how much OBL there is on the comment pages. No you are naive and attempting to blatantly misleading people.

      this is the silliest , foolish and most high school argument to be having. Imagine going into any other market in the western world claiming you can sustain a lucrative business,acquire customers and beat out all your competition by using $4 services. Its total joke and right out of a plot line for Spy kids 5

        I'm going after low competition local keywords and I need blog comments to give diversity to my backlink portfolio. These are low obl and niche related. I cannot be assed purchasing and then learning how to effectively use the software for this, so I pay $5 and its 10 links I get. Put 5 by mistake by mistake due to talking about 5 dollars and fiverr. It would take me atleast 2 hours to find these, so I feel my time is worth more than 5 bucks.

          This is a big misconception out there about backlinks. There is no need for diversity as far as "type" of links. You need diversity as far as your sources. You can not have the majority of your links coming from 1 or 2 sites, but there is no need to seek out different "types" of links like so many people seem to think.

      I actually disagree with most of the comments in this thread. Obviously Fiverr shouldn't be your main source of link building or SEO. However there are many very useful Fiver gigs that other people are charging at least 4 times as much money for.

      Bookmarking
      Account Creation (social profiles etc)
      Writing Articles And Spinning
      Creating Manual Web2.0's With Unique Content
      SOME Social Signal Gigs are effective...

      You just have to avoid the large scale contextual link building gigs offering to build hundreds or thousands of links with B.S. spun content via senuke or whatknot. Fiverr is very useful, and can save you a few bucks if you're on a budget. With that being said; make sure you don't tell your clients you use Fiverr - it's kind of laughable to them at least.

    Here's my Fiverr favorite gigs, that actually help with SEO:

    * Semrush reports. I don't want to pay $79 a month or whatever they charge when I only want a couple of reports per month. I would gladly spend $10 on that.

    * Ahrefs reports. Same thing as above.

    * Videos. I don't know about you but I would much rather pay $5 to a native english speaking lady to create a video that I can distribute than create the video myself

    * Posts on blogs. Some people sell guest posts from their PR3 websites on fiverr. I actually use that as a money post and use it for tests rather than link to my money site, but hey, you don't have to copy me.

    That's what I buy on fiverr and it's useful to me. As everything else, it's a tool that you can use or discard. I don't use it to build thousands of spammy links to my site though.

    People can blast Fiverr all they want. I use it all the time for a variety of services and rarely buy a gig that turns out garbage. I look at it this way. You can receive crappy services from someone who charges $100 just as easily as a $5 gig.

    Remember, in some countries, $5 can go a long way and some people rely on this money and will give great service to keep this money coming in. Therefore, never judge quality because of the price.

    Services I use:

    5 private proxies for lifetime (beat that)
    Senuke X services (full monty)
    Social Bookmarks
    linkwheels

    They key for me is saving time and using Fiverr gives me this precious time to put elsewhere.

    I notice a common trend here on WF. Those who are selling services (usually for a huge overpayment) are the ones who hate Fiverr and refuse to accept any success reports from real users, even though there are many. I wonder why that is? My guess is because they don't like the 'added competition'. It is no secret that SEO is a cut-throat business, so it is in their best interest to diminish anything that cuts into their profits.

    The facts speak for itself. Even in this thread there are success stories from real buyers who use fiverr often, but the guys with signatures trying to sell their SEO services won't hear of it and say they are "lying", or "it can't be true", or "they are ignorant and stupid", yet they never tried their specific strategy or used the gigs they are using... because they are too busy trying to drum up business to over charge for their SEO services; services in which they could very well outsource on Fiverr or odesk. Who knows.

    Threads like these never end well. It seems there are a handful of WarriorForum members who flame, troll, take the conversation off topic at all cost in hopes the thread gets locked or deleted by WF moderators.

    It's a shame WF came to this. OPs thread is legit and he is sincerely wanting to talk about this topic but it appears there are a few try hards with a personal agenda looking to shut it down at all costs.

    Sorry, but most of you guyz, sounds like you havent try anything on fiverr, im pretty well experienced with fiverr, so:

    1. Who will work for 4$!?
    - Many of sellers are not from usa, and that 4$ have more value in their countries.
    - Many of the seller, have a lot of time to waste, so its better to do some money, than doing nothing.
    - Some of them can even work one hour for those 4$ (like teaching, programming etc). I would never do that, because my time has more value
    But if they willing to do so.. i will buy it!

    2. So they are using some seo software!
    - Its usually true, after reading the description, you will know if they do it manually or not (Even if they dont say so)
    - They know using X software more than you, so for them launching a campaign (ex senuke) will be very fast, and you will have to learn a lot of stuff before you do that, so its worth spend those 5$ and save some time (and money, senuke and hosting/your pc its not free)

    Software - Google's ban!
    Oh please, think a little bit, google cant see if you are using software or not, they can see only results(output). If you know to use software, and you know seo, you can make your campaing looking very natural, rank you website and save a lot of time!
    Btw. many of the seo links are done manually, but that doesent mean you will get better results.. it depends.

    Im using fiverr to do some work that me (and my software) cant do, or dont have time to do so, like angela backlinks (Fiverr / Search results for 'angela backlinks') Some manual comments etc. But i usually link using fiverr, to my 2nd thier.

    Fiverr is full of shit and scam!
    Maybe not full, but i agree, they work hard to ban those assholes, but there are a lot of awesome gigs, so use your brain using fiverr, and you will be ok.

    I know that fiverr is a pain in da ass for some seo services from WF and others, because on fiverr you can find the same or similar services for a better price... its called democracy

    So... you can find awesome seo gigs, there are on WF tests, rankings with fiverr seo services, so i dont know if there is a need to do that again, but i would add here angela backlinks and some high pr manual bookmarking.

    Best seo strategy using Fiverr is to not use it, and save your money. A much better solution that has not been discussed is to hire an overseas worker full time. With Fiverr you are paying someone 5$ to perform maybe 5 minutes of work. With an employee, you are paying someone anywhere from $2 and up per hour of work.

    I calculate that this strategy is roughly 67 times more effective than using Fiverr. That doesn't take into account that your employee will follow the exact blueprint that you outline. You may face a larger time investment up front while training them, but you will make it up over the long term. Or hire a manager to oversee your employees and have them do the training. Even more efficient. People need to start treating their business like a business. An online business should leverage the power of technology and global economics just like any real world business would.

    I also do not advocate paying someone 2$ per hour. I am just commenting that you can find outsourced workers for this wage. If you pay your people more, you will attract higher quality workers, who will stay with you longer.

      5 minutes ? Who told you that? Fiverr is huge, you cant know how much time he spends on your work, so dont be an ignorant.. what he can do in 5 minutes?

      But i agree that having a VA working for you its a good idea, but that isint so cheap, you will have to look for VA's from 3rd world countries...

      And sometimes you will need find someone with special skills, which is not always easy.. But VA techniques could be very usefull, if you use it being smart, same with fiverr.

        i had someone upload a video for $5 using traffic geyser and it moved up considerably on google.
        does anyone here realize that people do vote on fiverr services that they receive and leave feedback like on ebay? there are plenty of genuine service providers on the cheap at fiverr.

          The problem with relying on feedback on Fiverr to make any decision is that the feedback can be a little misleading. For one thing, you do not know the experience level of the person leaving the feedback. They may have just started in IM yesterday and are amazed by just about anything. The big thing about the feedback though is that generally people are just rating the gig based on the fact that the work was done as described. Nobody comes back 3 months later to discuss how it impacted their rankings, positively or negatively.

          I would just caution people to be careful what they are doing. After Penguin, you cannot just throw a bunch of crap against the wall and see what sticks. In the past, useless links were just that, useless. However, they didn't harm your site's rankings. That has changed.

          I'm working with 4 clients right now that came to me because they used Fiverr gigs and WSO packages in the past and destroyed their rankings. Fixing the situation has been more costly for them than if they had just hired someone who knew what they were doing from the beginning.

            Yep....Thats why we post. I have clients I put a few good links to and they jump up in the rankings. I have a few WF customers now some of which went to town with those kinds of links and they don't budge until you throw a whole sink of good links at them and then slowly. Google has made it so that crappy links not just don't count they weigh your site down and in some cases penalize it so hard it will never come back.

            The kids here don't know that or don't care because they don't pay mortgages, feed their kids or live off their business. If their last MFA with spun PLR doesn't rank then no problem. Go play Xbox and forget about it if for awhile.

            That logic holds no water. It's simple minded and absurd at best... especially when you have no personal hands-on experience with said gig. You are pointing to "one person" leaving a positive feeback on a Fiverr gig when some popular SEO gigs have over 5,000+ positive feedbacks. You're stance is all 5,000 people who purchased said gig are not "qualified" to leave positive feedback because they are all ignorant about SEO, yet you, who never even tested the gig, are qualified with your self-proclaimed credentials on a random SEO forum? :rolleyes:

            Sounds a bit arrogant and it proves a "holier than thou" attitude. I'm sure 100's of those users giving some of those 5,000+ positive feedbacks have more SEO knowledge than many on this forum making such arrogant and baseless accusations. To assume they are "not qualified" is either pure ignorance or proves people here have a self-serving agenda to degrade outsourcing websites like Fiverr.com and odesk.com because they fear the competition.

            Do you have any proof of that? Cus if what your saying is true, ranking will become a whole lot easier... cus you turn on Xrumer and blow away all your competition from the first page.... that is why i don't belief the crap Google and professional liar Matt Cutts says..

            i still use these so called "crappy" links on my sites... the only three things i have adapted since the updates is the velocity, differentiation in the anchor text, differentiation in link type (blog comments, forum profiles, articles, PR, .edu)

            And all my sites are still ranking, some jump up and then but after they are stable they keep the ranking...

                So you can proof proof beyond a reasonable doubt that these claims arent bogus claims, i havent seen any evidence that the people who got " tanked" got " tanked" because of bad backlinks, because if that is really true... that blasting backlinks to your site gets "tanked" then only have to open my Xrummer and SB and blast away all the competition from the first page...

                So there we have it, or this is bullshit or we are going to see a lot of sites disappear from the rankings due to people who blasted them with Xrummer.

                BTW you haven't proven anything at all so there is really nothing to replace... like i sad and will say again all those folks got tanked because Matt Cutts (the Goebbels of Google) says that it was due to the backlinks... Right......

                That is all the proof you have, if not, if you have some REAL data instead of some forum reports then i would love to see that, until them you haven't proven anything.

                  Ok, this has gotten way off topic, but in terms of REAL data, the same could be said for your side of the argument. Nobody is going to expose their sites or the sites of their clients to argue this point.

                  So let's assume Google lied, all the thousands of reports on forums across the internet are all fake, and that all the independent SEO websites are clueless... So what in your opinion did the Penguin update target if it was not low quality backlinks?

                  Personally, I have seen enough evidence that negative SEO does exist. It doesn't mean you can spam any site out of the SERPs. Weaker sites with less authority are far more susceptible to it.

                    Of course not because many sites on the web have good solid links that will protect them. Its just the same old tired argument that if you cannot bring down any site you want then it won't bring down any site at all.

                    At any rate anyone that looks at the evidence of unnatural links and sites tanking after getting unnatural link notices (although all didn't many did) and then looking at what happened in Penguin and still makes baseless claims that are supposed to over rule all the real evidence out there is going to believe what they want. They are not interested in the facts.

              Do you rank for anything significant? Cause most $$$ niches are currently being dominated by pretty big players and you can't break into those top 5's without either 1) good links or 2) serious spam.

              I'm not saying that it's impossible to outrank major sites. Just not by using any of those link you mention.

              p.s. what's a "yellow green"? Just wondering...

          ok i am an SEO and i do have specific uses for fiverr that help me.
          i had someone upload a video for $5 using traffic geyser and it moved up considerably on google.
          does anyone here realize that people do vote on fiverr services that they receive and leave feedback like on ebay? there are plenty of genuine service providers on the cheap at fiverr.
          SOLD I just bought a Traffic Geyser gig based on your recommendation. Hope you enjoy the $4

          You need to order small gradual link building gigs and make them diverse. answers gigs, social bookmarking done manually, as well as few other unique gigs, most will do more bad than good though.

    In some countries five dollars is a lot of money and what people make in two to three days so if they know what they are doing why not. Having said that you cannot build a long-term SEO strategy on these. As long as you are pulling the shots you can add some of these to your mix.

      Oh please, think a little bit, [U]google cant see if you are using software or not, they can see only results(output).
      oh please learn what the issues are before missing the point. Its not Google spotting that you left links by software its that the links that CAN be left by software are garbage almost all of the time. Webmasters with quality sites don't allow automatic submission

      like angela backlinks
      Angela Backlinks??? HAHAHAHAHA.... and the thing about it is you have no idea how you just shot your argument in the foot. lol

      LOL said the guy pimping website popularity services. Let me guess Fiverr seller? You are being silly . In the grown up world we don't even have to tell real grown ups in business that they should spend more than $5 for ANY business service to promote their business. Its like a guy walking up off the street to car owner telling them they will fix their car for $4....Um no thanks. Grown ups have thing about things being to cheap to be good. The price alone runs any serious business person off so they are no threat to anybody who provides services to any real business.

      No one posting in this thread is trying to protect their business. they all genuinely think and know that almost all Fiverr SEO services are garbage?( can you luck out and take advantage of someone who doesn't know how to market themselves and needs a few bucks? sure. Build a "strategy" on that? nope. Cause they won't stick around when they could be making more and since SEO is global it doesn't matter where they live.)

      ok i am an SEO....there are plenty of genuine service providers on the cheap at fiverr.

      I'd bet good money you are no real SEO and we have never denied there are genuine service providers. In fact we agree that they are genuine - genuinely bad.

        Ok, so if i will submit an article, to article directory manually, it will be ok, but when i will submit the same article, to same article directory with some software, it will be garbage ?

        Oh please, almost everything can be automated

        Btw. how the admin will know if that article will be submitted manually or by software? The results is the same, they cant know that. If they will use some complicated antispam techniques, then i wont be able to submit an article but cmon, like 5% have only good antispam techniques, you can even submit links automaticly to top authority websites..

          Umm no.... article directories are mostly garbage now. Go ahead aim a ton of them at your site and unless you are in a weak serp you ain't getting anywhere on those

          Oh please, almost everything can be automated
          Sure go ahead and automate putting a link on Adobe.com's home page, or shoot try putting a post (not comment) on even any private owned blog you see. Hey you said everything can be automated so go for it.

          like 5% have only good antispam techniques, you can even submit links automaticaly to top authority websites.
          Yeah Angela's links has deluded a lot of people that when you put a link in a forum profile waaaay awaay from the home page you are getting a high Pr link. Keep on trucking man but don't install seoquake and look at the Pr of that page you set up. It might blow your bubble. You can't get a link on ANY authority page with angela's backlinks. NADA

          Its part of my backlinks strategy, im getting good results so i will keep using it, simple.
          No you aren't. You are either ranking for some drop dead easy term no one wants cause there is not much money in it or you are begging bread on page two max. No skin off my back though claim on

            I said "almost" anything, ofcourse now to do guest blogging, and other similar strategies you will have to do it manually, or use some VA ( fiverr ;D)

            Those manual, high quality links, like GB, Secret Source seo and others, i use on my first thier, then some blogs (automation) and the rest of thiers are full automation, that strategy its working for me, same with angela backlinks, you have to know how to use them, if you will submit just an url, and blame about the results.. cmon. I submit only to pr6+ sites, where i can leave an anchored backlink intext, with a lot of text, so it looks more like an article page than profile..

            Sure go ahead and put on adobe manually your link on homepage

            Yeah, you know better what im doing and what results im getting! What an EGO! I didnt say that i use only angela backlinks, but it helps me with my seo strategy, i have even tested only angela backlinks, and i had nice serp improvements, ofcourse you wont dominate any niche with just that, but i know it helps.

You're stance is all 5,000 people who purchased said gig are not "qualified" to leave positive feedback because they are all ignorant about SEO, yet you, who never even tested the gig, are qualified with your self-proclaimed credentials on a random SEO forum? :rolleyes:

      Sounds a bit arrogant and it proves a "holier than thou" attitude. I'm sure 100's of those users giving some of those 5,000+ positive feedbacks have more SEO knowledge than many on this forum making such arrogant and baseless accusations. To assume they are "not qualified" is either pure ignorance or proves people here have a self-serving agenda to degrade outsourcing websites like Fiverr.com and odesk.com because they fear the competition.
      You clearly missed my point. I did not say that all 5,000 people who purchased a gig are not "qualified" for anything. What I said was that you know nothing about the people leaving the feedback. When it comes to SEO, they might be geniuses. They might be morons. You do not know.

      But the main point that I made in my statement is that what most people are giving feedback on is whether or not the work was completed. Read through the comments yourself. Most will say things like, "Work was completed on time" or "Seller completed the job and included bonus links." Stuff like that. That feedback does not give you a good indication on the effectiveness on the gig when it comes to SEO, but many people just look at all the thumbs up's and assume it must be great for rankings.

      And my comment was in response to someone who suggested looking at the feedback of the buyers. It has nothing to do with my opinion about Fiverr. What I pointed out was that the feedback rarely tells you anything useful about the gig when you are looking at SEO jobs. People do not come back 3 months later and talk about how their rankings went through the roof or tanked in the toilet. 99.9999% of the time the feedback being left is just a thank you or a comment that the work was completed and on time. I would be cautious about buying most of the SEO services in the WSO section here too, but at least in the WSO section you will see people leave comments a few months after ordering the service. That can give you a far better indication of whether or not it is worthwhile.

        Your hypothesis is partially true. Many leave feedback because it was delivered on time. But many also come back 2-4 months later to leave feedback. As a seller I can verify this is true.

        What also is true is many buyers don't want to leave positive feedback because they don't want to share their "secret" gigs. They don't want to comment or recommend to the mass population how great the fiverr gig is. Having their competition buy the same fiverr gig won't help their cause. I can verify this is true. I get message from clients messaging me daily to tell me how my gig got them to page #1 in Google, but they never leave written feedback. They give just the "thumbs up" feedback or no feedback at all.

        I also had a guy buy 3 gigs from me and leave negative feedback on all of them. I offered him a full refund however he refused the refund because he didn't want me to take my link down... that same day he purchased 33 more of that same gig from me. It was clear his strategy was to hurt my rep so he can benefit and be his "exclusive" SEO provider.

        I cancelled all his orders he ordered and told him I don't want to work with him anymore, he got mad and threaten to report me to Fiverr for being "unprofessional", and went on to say that I can't turn him away because he was a paying customer and that I had to work for him. I ended up refunding him his money for the first 3 gigs and removed his links!

        Two days later I get orders from a new Fiverr account for the same URL this guy was ordering for. It was clear he was leaving negative feedback so I get less orders which benefits him greatly.

          And your story fits what I am saying.

          Feedback on that site is all over the place. Yes, some people might come back much later and leave a comment about their rankings, but that is pretty rare.

          I do not believe Fiverr was really designed with the idea to sell something like an SEO service. It was more for an instant sale with instant feedback. Did the seller do what they said they were going to do?

          People go to Fiverr and build an SEO plan around what they see being sold, and that is simply foolish. If you have a solid and proven SEO plan already, and see a gig that can help take some of the manual work out of that plan, then go for it.

            Atleast there are feedbacks to give folks a good idea what they are buying for $5. Many do come back to update their ranking progress. Some are happy they see results and leave feedback. The problem is there is only a small amount of text one can write in the review, so many reviews are "good job", "great service". Many folks don't get too elaborate.

            Other SEO services charge 10x to 20x more than what you can buy the same service on Fiverr for without the ability of having any feedback. In fact it has been revealed some of those $199 WSOs turn out to be $194 pure profit to the seller because he is outsourcing gigs on Fiverr for $5 to do his $199 work. There was threads on WF about this.

            What I recommend people to do is their research, and understand the principles of SEO. Set a safe link building campaign in place and follow it to a tee. You can hire someone to do the work for $500 to a $1000 per month or you can outsource on Fiverr and get the same work done for maybe a whopping $50. Who doesn't want to save $950 bucks a month to get the same results?

            SEO isn't for everyone, it is an ongoing process and it does require some "outside the box" and "creative" thinking. You have to find that line on what is healthy link building and what is unhealthy link building.

            I do have a feeling though, with all this "negative SEO" towards Google, they will soon change their policy. If link building is unsafe, then that means nobody is safe, and the websites sitting pretty in the top 3 will have targets on their back by everyone wanting that spot. But that is another discussion for a different thread...

              So then umm why are you offering a package for much more? Its twice and more the "whopping $50" and they could have got the same result without it.

              LOL...You just proved that either you do believe there is value that can be had for those willing to spend more money or that you are purposely overcharging and ripping people off knowing they could have the same results for less.

              take your pick.

              You've claimed yourself right into a corner where no one should ever buy your package or ever trust you (not that anyone actually believed the real PR9 claim) because you are purposely and knowingly selling stuff for more than you know they are worth.

                I know you are trying desperately to prove some kind of quirky-off-the-wall-point to help your argument, but it doesn't. You skipped my entire post to attack one diminutive area that has gone aimless at best.

                $50 per month does not equal $119 for life.

                We get it, you and many other SEO sellers don't like people who outsource work on Fiverr to save money. It's understandable you have your interest at heart, but these people don't need to read bias spew everytime threads like these pop up for discussion. If you have something to offer in the conversation then please, by all means, offer it. Just like the 1969 TV series Dragnet said... "Just the facts, ma'am,".

                  It hit you square in the heart of your argument. You kinda have to deny it does to escape the natural outcome of your point but you charging twice more than what fiverr gigs would accomplish by your admission PROVES positively one of the two things I stated. I don't need help. Its the logical end of your argument.

                  $50 per month does not equal $119 for life.
                  Doesn't matter if its ten dollars more it still shows that you are charging more than what is necessary to get the same result or you are buying into the premise that there are premium services that are worth it. and what if I offer a package with 10 times your package for a very competitive serp? and more services with it than you do? How would it not be worth ten times more even as yours is twice what you claim people needed? You contradict yourself and have no logical point the minute you offer ANY premium services twice what you claim will bring the same results. Now if you want to claim that the one time payment will rank them no matter what serp with nothing more ever then you would be making a point - I will take one - but of course we know that claim would be false especially as your pages lose PR and get diluted by all the links you are putting on them. Truth is they will keep on buying services either from you or someone else. There is no real onetime. Its repetitive like everybody else.

                  We get it, you and many other SEO sellers don't like people who outsource work on Fiverr to save money......It's understandable you have your interest at heart
                  Oh please. You really think people are so stupid they will believe that a fiverr seller doesn't have a vested interest in arguing for it? You have far more financial interest in it than I do. I have nothing on the line. No one who would even consider having a strategy based on Fiverr with a $5 a pop budget would instead use mine at my prices and no real business sites that I market to would feel even remotely comfortable trusting their business to someone who only makes $4 for they work they do. lets face it fiverr is a poor business model for a competent SEO and every businessman knows that and would immediately question the competence of.

                  That we even have to have this debate shows us how low this board and IM SEO has sunk. If you told any other group in the Western world wanting to have any kind of real business that they should trust their business to someone with $4 services they would look at you like you are insane.

                    I didn't bother to read your entire post because it is extraneous at best.

                    However, I find the above comment interesting. You seem to have this illogical assumption that if someone can outsource for a cheaper price then it must be bad to use.

                    It has already been proven time and time again that your hypothesis couldn't be more wrong. Not only from all the 10's of thousands of Fiverr users that leave feedback, but users who visit message forums like this one that wrote about their positive experience and saying you are wrong. I'm not sure why anyone should trust your word over the folks who disagreed with you? They are users who don't have any motives. They are just speaking cold hard facts based on their personal experiences.

                    Your logic is so diluted that I doubt you will ever admit that it is not black and white like you seem to think, there are bunches of colors in the mix. The general consensus is Fiverr can be the best tool in the world, or your worse nightmare. It depends on how you use it.

                    People pay $5 for a services in which they may not have the time, tools, or both to perform tasks efficiently. For example, I'm assuming you heard of a $100 tool called Scrapebox? This tool performs many useful tasks if used properly. It can be a spam machine if used incorrectly. It can take several hours to run + it costs money to buy private proxies as free shared proxies are more trouble than they are worth. For $5 you can hire someone to perform tasks using this tool. Saving you time, money from buying the $100 software and the $10 bucks for the proxies and the hours to run it.

                    However, this tool can also can be disastrous if used incorrectly. Anyone who uses it should understand SEO and it needs to be used carefully. Do you think the guy on Fiverr with over a 1,000 positive feedbacks is less qualified to use the tool over some random 'self proclaimed' SEO guy with a link in his signature and little to no feedback AND charges $32.99 more than the Fiverr seller?

                    You've made it very clear that you don't recommend anyone paying for services on Fiverr or odesk for $5. You think people should pay more for the same basic services and call it the "premium" service. How much more should this same basic "premium" service cost, I wonder?

                      Gear,

                      I'm not going to argue if outsourcing to cheaper providers is good or not. I outsource, a lot of people outsource. So, you get what I'm saying.

                      The thing is, a lot of users can leave positive reviews without even knowing if the service is actually working or not. I'm not saying that your service doesn't work, but all they (customers) care is the seller did what they advertise. Say someone bought 10,000 backlinks, and the seller did deliver 10,000 backlinks. The customers were happy because he/she got the 10,000 backlinks, and thus leaving positive reviews. The reason why they order those services in the first place is probably because they THOUGHT what they were doing would increase their rankings.

                      So, if you're arguing based on user reviews, which might consist a lot of noobs, then the above is my argument to you.

                        Right this was discussed on page one of this thread. Some reviews are written after the order has been delivered, some reviews are written 3 months after the services were rendered with results. When a fiverr seller has 100s of reviews you can pretty much bet that some of those reviews aren't from noobs, but rather from folks who got real results. I am speaking from experience.

                        Also it should be noted that some fiverr buyers won't leave reviews at all because they don't want their "best kept secret" out. They don't want the seller selling lots of gigs because it could possibly effect their results. Again, I am talking from real experiences.

                        When someone finds a gig that works and ranks them to the top, they 'usually' (more often than not) want to keep that on the down low.

                        Would you want your competitors to know how you got that #1 spot in Google? I sure wouldn't. Many folks don't want to reveal their secrets.

                      Oh that is illogical but thats your own assumption I have said nowhere using a VA or outsourcing at a cheaper price was bad. You are now desperately tying to create strawmen. I merely indicated what would be obvious to anyone. A good person for SEO with any proven track record would not work for $4 services. My quote bothers you because you know I am right. In the business world relying on someone with a business model of being paid $4 for their services is an instant red flag.

                      It has already been proven time and time again that your hypothesis couldn't be more wrong. Not only from all the 10's of thousands of Fiverr users that leave feedback, but users who visit message forums like this one that wrote about their positive experience and saying you are wrong.
                      alright I didn't want to do this but you seem to insist so its on you - Frankly you have not proven even once anything you say.

                      Look at your own feedback for the PR7 offer you rave about. The proof is right there for anyone to see

                      Among all the people who mention the backlinks to your site they mostly comment EXACTLY what I suspected - the link profile on your domain is weak. One customer says it looks more like the backlink profile of a PR2 another says its been dropped and is no longer an authority site as you claim. Most of the people don't even mention this and show no idea of even having checked the backlinks

                      MIkeF is the one whose point has been proven.

                      The only thing that matters is the juice flowing through a site not the PR in the toolbar. You have got ton loads of thanks from people who do not know this and the few that do know some basic SEO have pointed out that what you sell as a real and viable PR7 is just a domain that has lost its links but the toolbar has not updated yet.

                      This is HARDLY surprising. Most people who know about SEO outside of WF do not surf around at Fiverr looking for good SEO. they consider that somewhat of an oxymoron. So of course the VAST MAJORITY of people giving thanks on there have no idea about SEO and them giving you great praise for a PR7 that they have no idea has lost whatever PR7 juice it has is proof of that . So even in your own case you've failed to prove a thing because the evidence says otherwise.

                      Its downright laughable that you think you selling a PR7 that has lost many of its links qualifies as just as good as people who actually provide their Pr domains WITH LINKS IN TACT who charge more because it costs more to buy and maintain.


                      You've made it very clear that you don't recommend anyone paying for services on Fiverr or odesk for $5. You think people should pay more for the same basic services and call it the "premium" service. How much more should this same basic "premium" service cost, I wonder?
                      Your basic problem is that you think everyone does the same kind of SEO and don't have a clue how they could do anything else for their money. You think Seo is either about pushing buttons on Scrapebox (which can be had for $57 not $100 by the way and if you do blasts you will always be doing them so in the long run buying is cheaper than paying for constant fiverr gigs - surprise!) or putting links on your own network.

                      When I charge over a thousand dollars I contact webmasters , negotiate for organic links over weeks, I use some of my properties to negotiate three way links, I strategize link bait campaigns, go back and forth in multiple sessions with the client to sync message with the SEO campaign, do press releases that I follow up with bloggers, analyze pages and rewrite several pages as needed and on and on.

                      You don't have a clue about SEO you don't see much talked about at WF. Its your lack of experience of such long and time consuming strategies that has you spewing on beating your chest like your PR7 domains without the links to back it up and your dubious PR9 claim is the pinnacle of what any SEO can offer.

                          You are being silly now. If someone is saying that there are no premium services that would justify paying a thousand dollars for then I am free to point out what those services would be.

        Who will wait X weeks to come back and say something about the results, i would not, maybe im just too lazy And in that time, many thing could affect the results, and each site will get different results.

        The best thing you can do, is to find gigs where you know what can you expect, gigs with a lot of feedback, and then test it for yourself..

    I went to fiverr and started to collect all those negative feedbacks of people which get their sites penalized by 100-400 positions to post them here. But after like 20-30 completly desperate feedbacks I found too many gems that I can't believe that I'm paying 4$/h my super trained VAs and investing all this money in domains and resources when I could simply pay FIVE dollars and get the job done in few hours. Just fired my VA's , closed the office and bought a one way ticket to Mexico.

    Fiverr backlinks....

    I did tried up fusion with my backlink but to tell the truth after purchasing 50+ gigs, from I guess 20+ supplier. None really work, except

    Dino_stark will build eminent backlink pyramid with 5000 profiles,most dofollow,include some edu gov,good seo for youtube by using xrumer senuke scrapebox for $5, only on fiverr.com
    Link_pyramid will build multi tier link pyramid with over 30 web 2 properties and over 10000 wiki backlinks for $5, only on fiverr.com

    These two are the only thing that works, others are nothing different from dumping your money.

    I guess variety your anchor text like, Click Here, Visit Me, Here, Special Link...
    Helps alot in term of ranking.

      If someone will say that they will manually, like your site 1000 times, its a liar, same with backlinks, if you see things like "I will create manually 400 backlinks.." cmon, i stay away from those type of gigs, simply because they try to lie to me, scammers -.-

      How many seo gigs have you tried? I can image that A LOT, if you are saying that 1000's of seo gigs are not effective.. I could image that you say more of them is not effective, or gigs that you have tried are not effective, but saying that all are not effective its pretty... not logic?

      And i agree, most of seo gigs i use, goes to secondary tiers

            I see a ton load of ignorance myself but I will give you a free tip. the only purpose to back up tier linking sites is to give them juice. You do that by using sites that actually have that juice to begin with. Angela style sites have little to no juice being newly created pages usually buried far away from PR pages. same goes forr most Senukex sites , the same goes for Magic submitter sites (unless you record your own which now SEnukeXcr can do as well).

            Everybody who uses these weak links just assumes they have some secret that others don't. Surprise! I use tiered link building too but there are better ways like getting some links on pages that actually have juice to begin with

              Thats weird, well, im weird because i also use profile to vary my anchortext, index other backlinks, change my total number of baclinks if needed etc.
              If i want juice from some profiles, i wont choice any profiles, i will use profiles that are linked from other pages from the same sites, those types of baclinks usually get indexed without doing anything.

              Ofcourse there are better and worst (i mean "less better") ways to get link juice, i try to use all of them...

              I didnt know about that new senuke, it looks nice.. but i wont start off topic. Where i was? Ah right, YOU ARE WRONG! Joking, thanks for the nice talk

                and um you can't do that with links that will also give you juice helping your entire site. sheesh may the good lord spare us from the newbs that swear against all that they demonstrate that they have the secrets we all are in the dark about.

                Keep trucking with the Angela backlinks. There should be more of you in the serps I go after. Ranking would be super easy

                  I know you can do that with other links, but angela type links are pretty easy to get, and are better than xrumer profiles or scrapebox comments.

                  And what the hell are you talking about, there is no secrets, and stop being so arrogant.

                  You are arrogant again, like i said, i use it as a part of my strategy, you wont rank with only angela backlinks, but it does the job.

    Dude I don't need to respond much to you further. It 2012 and you are backing up Angela's backlinks as a strategy worth using and you say I have pathetic thinking? Thats some funny drop down stuff right there

    Funny to see how all these SEO service sellers come in and bitch about how bad the fiverr gigs are, i use them for my lead generation sites and i have Good results, people claiming that these backlinks are shit never show any proof these just heard professional liar Matt Cutts or some WSO seller say that and they take it for the truth...

    I understand that you have to protect your business but please don't do that with bogus information, or fork out some proof that all these links are bad for your sites.

    I also see people saying that these gig owners don't care about your website, so what? they don't have to, they just have to deliver the links you bought.

    As you can see i do not have a sig so i have nothing to sell, and i claim that if you divers your gigs and you figure out which gigs really deliver the links you need (cus some gigs are indeed useless but so are a lot of these so called SEO expert selling their services here) you can and will rank your site...

      Spot on. It has been proven time and time again the folks here posting how bad Fiverr is are the same people selling SEO services in their signature.

      We can pretty much conclude that is why these people have a personal agenda and flame every fiverr thread that pops up. They don't want people paying $5 for a service they charge $199 for.

      Their stance is "if you buy fiverr you know nothing about SEO and are ignorant", "If you buy my $400 service in my signature you are intelligent and smart". Lol

      This thread is hilarious!

      EDIT:
      I would like to personally apologize to the OP for this thread turning into the pissing match that it has become. I know you wanted a real and sincere thread about the best SEO Fiverr gigs. The gigs are out there just do research and set a strategy in place and outsource accordingly. Your SERPs will improve and you save a LOT of your hard earned money going that route.

      That said, I will conclude my final post in this thread with an image to summarize the progress we have made

        LOL at the constant attempt to claim proof without offering it. We do finally agree though -the thread IS funny. especially where the seller of fiverr gigs insists that his defense of the thing he sells is unbiased and not sales motivated but that only those who disagree with him are financially motivated. That part is pretty hilarious to me as well. That is a definitely a dead horse that will never rise or fly.

    Well, there are 200+ signals to rank a website, that's according to MC. Regardless of a crappy backlink you still have 199 chances to rank to say the least.

    I have a website, I don't build links on it but posting it on social media sites, content is coming from Amazon, to my surprise it generated organic traffic with related search queries to my niche.

    I recently, not too long ago, bought Google +1s from Fiverr. All the +1s stayed on for a while, maybe for hardly 2 weeks until Google smelled some nonsense and removed all of them.

    Lets not get ahead of our self and judge a "tool" based on the user. Fiverr is by far the easiest way to find a contractor and it is also wallet-friendly. You can find a professional SEO advisor to do your job for only $5. The trick is to find a good one.

      Most of them wouldn't even use the gigs they offer for themselves.

    Actually this thread is over a year old until some spammer revived it.

    Not sure if anyone realized that or not.
