Few tips for fiverr
- SEO |
Hey guys,
I thought I would share this with you. As we all know there are lot of different services out there on fiverr. And when someone buys something then the fiverr guy gets $3.80 which is extremely LOW.
However, you can actually find some really good gigs out there. For example, few weeks ago I found a guy who made banners/logo's n stuff for $5. So, I quickly checked his previous work and I saw that the banners and logos he made are simple and nice yet they have lack of real "effort". Well, what do you expect for $5, lol?
Anyway, I contacted him and said I wanted a banner and a logo. This kind of work is usually around $100 (I mean high quality) - I have outsourced this kind of work from elance and odesk and some other guys who work professionally, but never on fiverr. I believed he could make a really nice/good looking design I needed.
So, I asked him "how much?" He quickly responded $10 (2 gigs= 1 for the banner + 1 for the logo).. Well, good enough, but then I sent him message saying that "Hey, I will pay you $40 if YOU REALLY PUT AN EFFORT IN IT"... After few hours he replied and we made a deal. He was totally blown away that I offered him like 8 GIGs instead of 2. And the logo+banner he made was really high-end. It was something worth way more than $40.
I implemented something similar with a press release writer. He made a 400-word pressreleases for $5. I asked him to send previous works and quickly realized he has the potential to write much more better. All the pressreleases were somewhat similar, lack of creativity and so on, but since he was native speaker I gave it shot. I sent him $25 for writing a 600 word press release. I was totally blown-away with the press-release he wrote, it was professionally made and I saw that he had put a lot of effort in it.
So for conclusion, I would say: Yeah, fiverr is cheap, but when you only pay $5 it's way too less to get something professional. You better encourage them with sending more money and you might be blown away with the quality. Some of the guys on fiverr are somewhat talented yet broke and lack of money. So if you do some research you will find some real gems. And why not to use them for your future projects as well?
