Do Fiverr SEO Gigs actually work?

There are quality services on Fiverr but they are few and far between. 99.99% of backlink gigs will do more harm than good in the long run. Something simple like writing a unique article and posting it to a squidoo, hubpage, etc. could be useful.

Darren,

Create a list of specific questions and shoot them the short-listed providers to see who actually responds and value your concerns.

Of course there are but you will really need to dig down the right one and keep using him for long. If you purchase a gig don't leave a review too early, As alot of times you see results immediately or don't see results immediately and leave a review and the results changes over time and you can't help it.

Ask yourself what you would be willing to do for $5, and you'll find your answer.

I have used fiverr for link building some of my websites, keywords with low competitions gain some ranking but for high competition keywords almost all the services I used were useless.
I would say go for it if your keywords are low to medium keywords.

There are great service on Fiverr but be sure that you know what you're buying.
$5 is not a point at all, beside I used only $15 to rank a mini niche site and got me over $20 as average per month.

Maybe you need to buy different gigs on Fiverr and also to do drip feed link building through the Fiverr to see good result on Google.

That's like asking if a Chrysler 300 is actually as good as a rolls Royce phantom. There is no comparison man

I really had a very bad experience even after trying several times, not just once, twice or thrice, so won't recommend

I'm sure you all already know the answer to this question. You can probably get surprisingly many links for a fiver, but you don't want that kind of links in the first place. I've tried one of the cheap link packages sold as WSO for a test project of mine, and it was just a pile of crap.

Hi.

It depends on the kind of SEO inclination you have. There are some really good fiverr guys who can submit few manual high PR backlinks which actually helps. But if something is relatively too good to be true like "I can bring your site to Page1 for $5" or "I will manually submit 10000 links for $5" can never be good. Research your requirements before you go fishing.

Bottomline: "If its too good to be true, its probably not true". Be it via fiverr or WSO or any email campaigns.

Does a fat kid like salads?

As RyanLB pointed out, good gigs are hard to find on fiverr. Fiverr used to be a great site. But it has not been flooded by low quality providers. I prefer SEOClerks. Guys over there are much more responsible and genuinely expert.

There are some other things that Fiverr does well. Say voiceovers, press release submissions, infographics submission, video making and submissions( well some of these can be used for SEO), and again if you interviewing someone on your blog and need a cool caricature guess what you can get it on Fiverr.

Well Fiverr SEO gigs doesn't have to be 5$, there are add-ons to gigs that can make them more valuable.

Maybe somebody can put some link to such gigs...

Fiverr gigs are only any good for 3rd or 4th tiered blasts for money sites or hitting posts/videos on well establish sites. My advice would be find a new approach to seo. It is very clear that big g knows what "basic" webmasters do to try and rank. Flip it on it's head and go after 10 high quality links a week.

I find that a few of the pyramid gigs are good for ranking youtube videos cheaply for an extra 200 views a month

Hello everyone. I have always read through the forum here but never registered. You guys have some great knowledge. I was wondering what do you guys think of the using fiverr for back linking services (Senuke, etcc)

Thank you for the input.

Honestly I would not hire someone on Fiverr to do SEO gigs for me. I only use SEO for graphic-programming related work, nothing more. My reason is simple: Most of the SEO/backlinks gig are not quality and I would not risk my site's ranking on that.

Truly fiverr increase traffic.

Fiverr SEO services are based on automated softwares like SENuke, Xrumer, etc.
Most of those softwares are in the target of Google antispam team. If you really appreciate your website avoid using those and focus on quality, content and building communities on social networks. Its really hard but like in a Moz CON they mentioned that this kind of sites are the ones that find success in a couple of years.

It depends, some gigs work, some not.

Hi all
I have some success buying Fiverr SEO Gigs I use them only on videos not sites

It's worked at least for me. I am usually buy gig from only 100% positive feedback.

Of course it doesn't. The provider is only getting $4. How much care and attention do you think they can devote to your site?

It's all questionable/automatic stuff that will probably get you deindexed eventually.

It's hard to find a person on fiverr who'll really deliver the goods for 5 bucks. You have to go through a lot of gigs before you'll find one good seller. I think you'd be better off searching google for your niche, find a high pr site and offer them a hundred buck to link back to your site. You'll spend about the same amount on fiverr but achieve better results.. and not have to worry about penalties down the road.

One of my sites was manually slapped for crappy links by google on a site I ran through a fiverr link building gig.

Never again.

You must be pretty careful with links on your main sites, and less careful on sites you aren't as concerned with.

I would buy GSA Search Engine Ranker, that does the job of any fivrr for $79 for the rest of your life.

I've also noticed gigs that do link spam and declare they are posting to "PR 10" sites will have 100% feedback from idiots that don't realize they're actually getting PR0 sites.

For 5 bucks you won't receive quality work! Just use it for a small and QUICK work (sometimes for article writing it will be also good!)

I wouldn't trust much SEO from Fiverr, BUT... I did find a guy who claimed to be using proprietary software to build links and I asked him for a link report and surely enough, they were all relevant to the niche.... PM me if you want his name.

Fiverr and SEO should never be in the same sentence. 5 dollars will get you far at Taco Bell though.

You can get results but you have to spend like $100 minimum and start with 20 gigs, get a wide variety, and send them all to indexification.

Thats how you do proper "fiver seo". You rank with spam. Buy a few high pr links on top of that and you're set.

If its a video it will last for as long as you maintain links.

If its a site it can last for 9, 12+ months if you do it right. Google doesn't always get you as quick as you think. I mainly use GSA these days for my blackhat sites and some of the results have blown my mind.

Just keep in mind, if you're going to automate links do it yourself. You will save a lot of money in the long run. $200 gets you GSA + Captcha Breaker 1 time fee. Then you can get a VPS for $28 + $10-$17 / month for indexification = $38 - $45 / month total.

Then you can add 20-30 semi private proxies but I use public and get 100k+ links / day.

The point is yes you can rank with spam, videos work best, sites are volatile but can make you a lot more money.

-RS

I've spent probably hundreds of dollars on fiverr in 2-3 years. Yeah many of them are crappy, but i usually never use these gigs for the money site anyway, with dozens of quality web 2.0 properties you can test out and weed out the bad and the good.
There are some good social share (fb like + retweet + stumbleupon, etc), press release and edu/gov link gigs.

Depends on what you want to achieve.

Some of the gigs might work as a Negative SEO (not giving anyone bad ideas they are going to regret most likely)

For me I have tested several fiverr gigs for YouTube videos ranking, and some 2nd/3rd tiers - for this they work. I, however, would never send any of these links to my money site.

I've used Fiverr a few times now. You do have to be careful but there are good folks out there. I was able to get some fast good traffic real quick. For the fee I believe it is worth trying out.

Many of the offers here on WF are merely reselling services they have outsourced from F*verr ... Sad, but true. I have experienced it myself.

i tried fiver gigs more than 10 times and all was not doing what i want
its all was fake or harmful as i used all of high rating gigs
my opinion it dosent make any deference

don't dreaming to get a quality seo for $5 .

There are some good SEOists on Fivrr, just check out a reputable buyer and test the results for yourself, for the sake of less than a pinkie you could have a better search engine ranking - its a cheap way of getting all the hard work done tbh.

Yea they can work...I send them to youtube videos.

I personally never had much luck with fiverr seo gigs,
seo is not an easy task, so how $5 can assure you quality seo.

seo and fiverr should not ever be used together in a sentence.

oops

I don't know about fiverr for SEO, but I have run a successful campaign through odesk. So I think they could do a better job even with articles. Which I ranked well with and it cost me $2.00 per article. Cheap but powerful without links building etc to impress giant Google.

I think, I'll be revealing my (Free) secret sauce on how I usually hiring the right people for the right jobs...soon.

Hiring right people for the right jobs wil not only maximize your chances on ranking, but it also saved you money as well. I have seen lots of people keep fighting for edu, gov backlinks to boost their seo/ranking positions. I CAN rank with no links building.

Fiverr is not on my list too. You can get better price for better results.

Dominating the "Top 3 Search engines" as PR1 is the perfect price. And that's what I did, with the right network.

I would consider fiverr as second hand or backup network for landing page etc.
I wouldn't count on it on my FREE seo traffic.


I'm impressed by the right people I worked with, I never seen anyone dominating:

1. GOOGLE
2. YAHOO
3. BING

As PageRank #1 within 24 hrs with the same website, yet same website with no backlinks etc. It's all FREE SEO TRAFFIC.

Obviously there are a lot of bad SEO gigs on Fiverr -- many of which could actually get you penalized in the search engines.

That said, are there any Fiverr SEO gigs that are actually worth my time? If so, what are the best ones?

Make by hand tier 1 sites and use fiverr gigs only for these site. So you can create a solid working link pyramid.

I would use fiverr for seo ONLY if I get the exact link from and to the website the link is on. For example I would buy 1 or 2 links for $5, not a "link weel" or any other piramide shit there might be in offer

Paying someone to get you backlink could be seen as buying a backlink or paid backlink by Google. And, in time, if Google suspects you bought backlinks, you will get your site banned from Google search. Just ask yourself if it's worth the risk.

Some gigs are still good on fiverr just like directory submission and bookmarking they works good.

Just do it your self, creating backlinks is a never ending process and slow and steady wins the race.

Hello,

I just built a new site and I want to start "promoting" it. I am new here so I thought about buying some incoming links from fiverr in order to get some link juice and keywords. Is that a good idea? Any other alternative I should take a look at?

Thanks a lot!

using fiverr gigs one can improve its ranking for short time ... but if a person wants to improve its ranking for long time then for that purpose using firverr gigs seems useless or unworthy ... according to me fiverr gigs doesnt prove to be useful.

Maybe. It depends on the seller. However If you are looking for SEO related gigs and offers I think that SEOClerks is better option. There are many good sellers on SEOClerks.

to be good to be true, seo service for USD 5

Fiverr is good for things that are worth 5$. Things that are higher in price can't be delivered in the same quality for 5$. Getting a good SEO work on fiverr for 5$ is also a chance and it doesn't get you good quality again. It can give some benefit. The chance to get a really good work on fiverr for 5$ is very low. So if you ask me, don't get SEO works to be done from fiverr. Maybe some on-page seo gigs may be good to purchase on fiverr or some articles.

I've dipped my toes in with fiverr SEO gigs in the past, but honestly, I couldn't tell you whether they did any real good or not... - As always, best to leave it so somebody who does this day in day out, and who has multiple testimonials. I'd say - leave it to a Warrior that you trust.

To make a long story short, most of them do not.
Most of the backlinking services offered there, will throw your website out of Google.
All the best. Regards.

It depends a lot on the niche you are in and your long-term strategy.

If you want to build a long term reputation for your website, you better try using private blog networks for backlinking and avoid fiverr completely.

If you are in a very competitive niche with a high ROI and just want to milk your money site for 5-6 months (until you get a Google penalty), then fiverr is the answer.
Just variate on .pdf, guest posting, high PR, DA and dif class C, youtube videos, social bookmarking, sape etc. Don't over-diversify the anchor texts, focus on 3-4 keywords so you can rank faster with less money. Just don't fall in love with your website, it won't last too much

Backlinks Gigs: I'd stay away from Gigs offering more than 5 backlinks for only $5.

Some services just can't be offered for $5 and irrespective of your seller level, Fiverr won't allow you to sell a service for more than $5. Why not use SEOClerks.com for SEO services? because it's targeted towards one category and would attract many freelancers. I do super well there, sellers are very talented and skillful. Also they came up with their new marketplace i.e. ListingDock.com, amazing place to showcase your crafted items, so far great experience.

Hi,

I am not sure if really the Fiverr Gigs work, I do have used some of Fiver Gig but I have never used as Tier1, mostly I use as Tier2 and couple to get facebook likes couple with writing job.

But what I really surprise is that, many knows especially SEO professionals know that fiver gigs are a real crap then how come many many fiver guys offering seo backlink services are making huge sales? It is really a surprising, I have seen many I repeat many many who have about 1k, 5k even 10k sales over last 2 years and there are already 10s and 100s of ongoing work with them.

All stands with the world a real surprise.

Even if any of SEO gigs on Fiverr works, it will not last. Sooner or later, your site will be penalized or sandboxed.

Just think about are you willing to do good backlinks for just 3.75 dollars ?? no one would.. i mean if really works, why don't they ranking their niche websites with CPA offers (i think that would make even more than Fiverr)

Also, you do realize that backlinking is not important as it used to be any more? social signals are weighted more. Out of top 5 ranking factors, 4 of 5 are social signals from different platform.

There was a time when the SEO gigs over at Fiverr did a decent job at getting sites traffic.

But these days with the constant changes at Google, Fiverr gigs at best in my opinion would be a very short term solution and could easily damage your sites reputation in the eyes of Google.

Well most gigs on fiverr doesn't do well but it doesn't mean that there isn't. You just have to find that small percentage to have the right gig.

I'm having a hard time with this myself,,, sometimes I feel they work and other I feel a total waste of time and money.!
Any suggestions on who actually gets it done right?

thanks for this post, i feel I'm not alone.

I'll tell you why people flock to fiverr, it's the same reason Subway restaurants figured out that $5 is a magic number when it comes to selling a product. No joke, do some research on Subway history & how they figured out the $5 marketing to boost sales.

Three page thread on why basing your business on $5 services might not work

It could be a punch line in a joke anywhere else.

If it sounds too good to be true, move on. I have seen many scams on fiverr and can't beleive people pay for these shady services.

It depends on if you want quantity or quality, good gigs are hard to find on fiverr but they are available.

Never tried Fiverr and won't do that.I haven't found good workers there to be precise.

There are some of SEO service in fiverr are quality when it comes in ranking a website. Check the status, reviews of the seller before you take your order and if you are not satisfied of your order then ask for a refund.

Yes, it works. I think you can select SEO gigs that have a live portfolio and those sellers should provide a report, So that satisfied buyers can post to the world. Also, read the reviews and make sure people are happy.

I will not risk any project with those links, it`s a crap ,most of it.
If you looking for a blast of your 2nd tier it can be used, but for 1st tier you should avoid that ,penalization will comes sooner than you can imagine (:

It has been about 8 months since Google's last pagerank update, but when another update takes place, I'll let you know. I just purchased 140 high PR low obl comments with do-follow links on fiverr. I checked the links and they all have niche-specific keywords for anchor text. Hope it works!

yes, they work but keep in mind. You want to be smart about your link building. There are service providers out there that are GREAT on FIVER and work like a charm. There are others who use spammy softwares that only hurt your ranking. If you built Tier 1 links then maybe think about building links to those links.

Just link in moderation and only point links to your site that are authoritative. Then backlink to those authority links. Just a thought.

Good Luck!

I wouldn't buy Fiverr gigs in the SEO niche... As $4.00 is NOT a good amount for SEO workers!

NO its low quality links

There are some good service on Fiverr, I am using it from time to time specially for videos.

Yes but not all, you have to find and one and its hard in these days after google updates!

I've found some gigs that have boosted the rank of some of my web 2.0 pages. Mostly they were SENUKE gigs and you have to be very careful about your anchor text. For $5 you need to very specific with the person you're dealing with pretty much they are just running the software for you nothing more. I also noticed that the boost in rank is mostly temporary so it is just a short term way to get some exposure.

I have had very mixed experiences on Fiverr. You need to make sure that you are using a trusted vendor or you can end up in very hot water

Don`t expect quality and safety for 5$ (:
Stay away from buying backlinks services on fiver, cos mostly they are based on Xrumer blasts or blog comment spam. It is too risky for pointing such backlinks to the money site, sometimes even to the 2nd tier.

SEO services from fiver is a crap, belive me. If you are looking for a really high quality service check some WSO from trusted Warrior or go to elance, freelancer and any other service witch provides comments of real customers.

I know on fiver people also comments but mostly they are buying blasts for 2nd and lower tiers. So if you are thinking about building backlinks to your moneysite you should forget about fiverr.

Regarding SEO... What works for me is using Fiverr to dilute my site/webpage's main keyword when trying to balance link diversity that wasn't balanced correctly. I don't use Fiverr for my main and secondary keywords. Stay away from gigs that offer 1000, 10,000, 20,000+ blast to different sites, unless trying to dilute your main or secondary keywords but don't blast to more than 1000 sites. I don't use gigs with contextual backlinks in blogrolls or on homepages that eventually rolls down to secondary pages either. You are better off building your own PBN (private blog network) or use a trusted and experienced service that allows permanent contextual homepage anchor text, perhaps one on warrior, for your main and secondary keywords.

Try some of the edu and government backlinks related gigs on Fiverr.

I don't feel its fair to say that there isn't quality services provided on fiverr, What i will say is, there isn't many things I personally would do for 5$

i have tried a couple and worked fine but it depends on what you are doing. I did see real ranking movement.
