What you need to know about fiver

It’s been a while since I’ve wrote this post on Fiverr – there’s since been many great tutorials and guides on how to make money with Fiverr along with alternative websites. In the mean time, enjoy… Is it me or has the introduction of Fiverr really set off a huge rushfor micro job websites? If you’ve yet to experience the awesome that is Fiverr allow me to explain: Fiverr is a website where people will post random jobs and do each for $5. Fiverr Alternatives & More Already there have beenthousands of listings from tweetings articles, creating design work, recording audio, producing video and much more all for just$5 a pop. It didn’t take long for this idea of micro job websites to catch on and now we’re seeing quite a rise in competitive websites just like Fiverr. The following are seven micro job websites where you can earn an additional $5, $10 or $20 doing simple jobs of your choosing. Fiverr,TenBux,GigHour,Zeerk,GigBucks,UpHype,FittyTown What are all these microjob sites and how can I make money from them? Here’s the basics of eachof these websites: *. A person can place a micro job for the certain amount each website offers $1, $5,$10, whatever *. Micro jobs can be virtually anything people want to try selling (design, consulting, etc) *. A client can buy these services, alert the seller and have the jobdone within a few hours or days *. Everyone wins The main appeal of these websites are that they’re quickie freelance job boards . The large freelance boards require long signs up sand project details but this gets right down to the essentials so each job can be done in a relativeshort amount of time. But the real question is “ how do I make money with Fiverr and other micro job websites? “. Here’s a few quick tips: *. Offer something unique . Everyone has begun to post the same type of jobs because these websites are becoming so flooded so your job is to find the one thing you’re great at and what makes it unique in comparision to the others. *. Post on each board . Just because Fiverr hasthe lion’s share of traffic related to this niche doesn’t mean you can’t benefit from posting elsewhere – infact, post the same job in another marketplace! You may as well try because you never know when a client may bite even if the same service is offered for less (or more) elsewhere. *. Show some proof . Have someonthing to offer? Show how you’ve done it before –especially the benefits.If you’re talking about how you’re going to tweet their message to100,000 followers – show a screenshot so people can see the process. *. Don’t over-do it . Just because you have a flurry of clients in queue doesn’t mean it’s worth the time. Really ask yourself if this small pay is worth it in comparision to going after a client which would pay morefor just a bit of extra time dedicated to the project. *. Make it templateable . People aren’t coming to Fiverr and other micro job sites for the best they can buy – they realize they’re getting quick, cheap work. Create templatesout of everything you do so you can maximize your time when doing each task. *. Work on your copy . Your title and ad copy is what’s going to get you the job – keep experimenting like you with with a great headline or advertising message until you’ve found one that converts – then, keep testing! Most importantly, keep trying out different jobs.Over time, each job is going to become saturated in the market so re-craft each of your jobs with something unique and with the times – always tell the benefits, not the techicaljargon that people don’treally care about. Want Your Own Fiverr Clone Site? I figured that if you’re a tech savvy entrepreneuryou can see the potential in starting your own Fiverr clone. Well, best hurry becausethey’re popping up all over the place. Hint: Maybe you should try to build a niche job site – the major categories are already covered by most of these already. Would I recommend starting your own? Not really. The marketplace is already saturated and unless you think of some way to market the hell out of your Fiverr clone site it’s best to just move on and keep thinking of that next big idea.
