      Yes, they take $1 from every gig you deliver, so you get $4 per gig. Then there are also Paypal fees when you transffer money from Fiverr account to your Paypal account.

    I have a backlink gigs usually get 35-40/50 orders per day. But last couple of days Im getting just 20-25 orders. I was thinking same as you. However now see you are facing same problem. Might be marketers are worried about Algo update.

    Then stop selling backlinks gigs and start selling facebook likes, Google+ and Tweets etc. You will see an immediate increase in your fiverr sales.

    Cheers!

    I increased my prices to $20 (addon) for better quality control, I get less orders, but make more money.

    Fiverr buyers are looking for quality instead of low quality mass junk.

      This is not new. OP is talking about recent situation. I carefully done little research on some popular gigs. I see popular backlink gigs are facing same problem as there are less orders in queues.

    The most popular Fiverr gig will be something like this...

    "I Will Spam Your Competitor's Backlink Portfolio To Get Their Website De-Indexed And Banned In Google For $5"

    That's the direction things are going...

      I must be the 1% then, i write good seo friendly articles, no spun content, no copy and paste rubbish. Just simple clear on topic articles with 2% keyword spread. What's bad about that? 100% feedback too.

    My gigs on Fiverr have nothing to do with links or friends or such. I do voice overs, site reviews, site navigation, and some Excel help. My traffic stays pretty steady.

    Yes definitely Google will not like buying or selling back links. Last weel Google has re indexed big back link network due to their work stuff. So this is the reason for your order less in number. Try to sell any other innovative work in Fiverr in order to get more reputation from others.

      Do what google likes ..

      but Backlinks is the key factor for your site ranking along with a good onpage SEO. And there are lot of excellent gigs on fiverr which helps to increase your ranking.

      Go and read the comments posted on top rated gigs and please understand those reviews are done by real people who had bought the service from them. Fiverr have a near to perfect review (commenting) system in place.

      This thread was intended to fiverr sellers and see whether others also face a drop in sales. It doesn't mean I am not getting any sales, I have enough regular clients to keep me busy , but just checking about the drop in new client flow.

        Gonna bump an old thread but somehow it shows up at the first page here, anyway, reviews of link building gigs at Fiverr mean absolutely nothing, yes it are real people but they leave the review before the links had the chance to kick in.

        I see a guy still selling AMR article blasts and he only has good reviews, oh come on!

    I don't have gigs offering backlinks, but my Twitter sales have increased this month.

    Trouble with GOOD back-linking methods, they cannot be done for just $5.

    No I did not notice any drop in sales. The Fiverr SERPs are changing constantly. For example, with certain gigs I get many more orders in the evening than in the morning, etc.

    Fiver is a cheap way to build links, sometimes cheap can mean good or bad. But most of the services people offer for 5 dollars are just horrible. Even the blogroll links will kill your sites rankings....and they are permanent links. Other services such as social media is worth a try but other than that you can't get much.

      Nobody is talking about Fiverr links building here. They are talking about fiverr sales. You better be on the topic first before posting.

    Does anyone know how to promote a fiverr gig?
    I have tried creating a few gigs with actual do-able things that make sense like:
    "I will manually create you 10 +pr3 nicherelated backlinks"
    Then in the description i tell my story like: i will do reserach on your niche and i will comment on some top very nicherelated blogs with actual comments related to the article. completion time 12-16 days, because i do not post on autoapprove blogs i will continue doing nicherelated high pr comments and wait until they get approved by the webmasters, i will stop once 10 have been approved, big chance of getting some bonus approvals afterwards. i will RSS and META ping all approved links for faster indexing. all blogs will have a low OBL"

    now this is some honest s#it gig, because i work parttime in real life so i got quite some free time for such projects.. also if people read the actual description and they have atleast a mild understanding of seo they should understand that this gig is worth the 5$.

    only problem is i dont know how to promote my gigs >.<

    You can start by posting links of your fiverr gig at forums or spread the word at other sites that you're offering that kind of service in fiverr.

    Also for the question of low sales, I remember one of their CSR who mentioned to me that they also have a queuing for sellers with the same tags or simply put, with the same type of service they offer if there's too many of them.

    So if there's 10 of you selling backlinks, they can sometimes hide the next 5 and just show it again to those searching when the first 5 got orders.

    To promote gigs on fiver you can,

    1) Link on forums.

    2) Find your competitors customers, and just message them.

    3) Do what I use to do and make really stupid, but unique gigs, that only desperate people would be interested in (there are a lot of desperate people out there).

    I use to have a gig where people paid $5 just to see my POF account. I would not give them login info, I would take a picture of all the girls who clicked "meet me" as well the number of messages in my inbox. But the value was in how I wrote my profiles (which they'd get a link to). I have a very unique way of writing profiles, that took a long time to learn, but works great for getting women to message you.

    The gig wound up getting deleted, I still don't know why, so I made a new one but never took orders. I got a couple but ignored them and just let the gig die. Too many guys were screwing it up, and still couldn't write a decent profile. Plus I had other more lucrative stuff going on and started it mainly as a joke.

    Anyway, the point is, there is some really stupid shit people will pay money for. You just need to figure out what it is and sell it. There are women you can pay on fiver to stalk you on facebook. So trust me, some guys will pay for anything. You just need to be creative and exploit their egos (like women do all the time =]).

    As about stupid gigs, take the ones where someone is dressed up like crazy and doing some stupid dance, and then they have like 300 sales, totally unreal.

    As to the worth of Fiverr gigs for SEO, I think about 80% of them are worth the money. Especially for backlinking your backlinks and getting simple videos produced.

    I did an experiment a year or so ago and got a new web site to number 1 for the term fish funerals. Backlinks from Fiverr, and logo from Fiverr.

    Don't believe the negative stories about Fiverr. Test it for yourself.
