I see a lot of people around BHW that think Fiverr is not worth to be taken into consideration when it comes to make money online, because you get only $3.96 in your PayPal for 1 gig (after all commissions are taken by 3rd parties). Let me ask you something: does Adsense give you more money for, let's say, half an hour I think NO.

The problem with Fiverr is that people must work to get that money, and every beginner dreams of a button to push and start seeing money in his account, not to work daily for those money. But if you have 0$ to invest (meaning you don't have at least the money to buy a domain name and hosting), but you have some skills, then Fiverr is the place to start earning your first online money.

Create an account today, link it with a PayPal account and post several gigs, no matter if they look alike. What kind of gigs? Depends on your skills, on what services you can offer to others. I cannot tell you what to offer because only you know what you can do. Bear in mind that you should do the task easily, in less than 30 minutes, otherwise it doesn't worth it.

For example, a gig for designing a full Wordpress theme is too much for $5, but you can offer a logo or flyer design. Before taking first order, you should also prepare your workflow, get some sample logos, etc.

Not good at graphical design? Offer other services like: social media / social bookmarking backlinks, article writing, video editing, fun or bizarre things. Browse Fiverr categories and maybe you'll come up with a good idea.

Make your gigs stand from the crowd, use titles that attract customers. Remember that you can write 1 word with capital letters in the title, so put an emphasis on the right keyword.

Explain simple and concise what you will offer, use an attractive image, and that's it... Wait for customers.

I advise you to write as many gigs as you can, no matter if they are related, twist some words, use other keywords and categories... who knows how you're going to find a customer.

When you get an order, don't forget to speak politely, to thank your customer for buying...and depending on your services, tell him after you finish your gig 2 things:
1. to leave a positive feedback
2. to see other gigs you have, maybe he is still interested.


In the beginning will be a little bit harder, you need to be patient. Once you hit level 2, you can add extras to your gigs. All my gigs have at least 1 extra, the most popular ones have maximum of 3 extras (for level 2). My average customer orders the gig with the $20 extra, but sometimes I also get customers that order the $40 extra.

What services are behind? Well, nothing too hard for me...just something that need attention and some time. I usually need 4-6 hours to complete the $40 extra...and only 10 minutes for the $5 gig...

Why I wanted to wrote you this? Because I am also into Adsense and CPA, but I do not earn so much money as I earn from Fiverr. I know I am just an average guy there...I know some guys that have 100 active orders in the queue, they earn like 300-500 $$$ every day. I am just a beginner with my 25-50 $ per day... BUT this topic should be inspirational for beginners that have 0$ in their pockets and want a starting point.
