Imagine being able to earn a quick $5 in return for doing something you are extremely good at. It could be creating a piece of code, formatting a Wordpress site, creating a resume or even editing a video. Whatever it is you’re good at, Fiverr will get you paid for it.
What is Fiverr?
Fiverr is a freelancing website that allows buyers to engage the services of freelancers who can provide a service for $5.
How does it work?
Any service that you, a seller, can provide to a buyer is called a gig. A seller merely has to create a free account on the Fiverr website and then tell people what it is that they can do, e.g.: “I can make a greeting card for $5”. You’ll also need to provide a short description and an optional image of a sample of your work. If a buyer is interesting in engaging your service, they will hire you and you will have to complete it within the required timeframe.
What if I want to earn more than just $5?
Sometimes, you may be able to do a job a lot faster. In these cases, Fiverr lets you give the buyer the option of paying a little extra to have the work done faster.
How do I get paid?
On Fiverr, as on other freelancing sites, you can have your earnings credited to your Paypal account. There’s also something called a Fiverr Revenue Card, which you can charge with cash that you have earned.
So, what are the benefits?
The benefits of Fiverr are tremendous. For one thing, you can sign up for free. Also, Fiverr is a trusted service. It is a proven model that has worked successfully for years for buyers and sellers, both. This means that there are more genuine buyers out there because they’ve tried Fiverr gigs before and know how high the quality of the finished product is. Another great advantage of using Fiverr is that you can create a gig based on what it is you do best. Whether it’s writing a short article or tweaking a document, there’s always a gig you can take up. Fiverr also helps promote your gig for a small fee, should you find that you aren’t getting much uptake for your gig. Fiverr also has easy categories to choose from in case you are confused about how best you can contribute to the site and earn some money.
Great, so how do I get started?!
Just hop on over to the Fiverr website and create your free account. Go through the FAQs and the terms and conditions if you’d like to know more about how Fiverr works. After that, just get cracking on those gigs and watch those dollars roll in!
At first glance, $5 may not seem like a lot. But when you put several gigs together – and become a trusted seller on Fiverr that attracts a lot of customers, all those $5 gigs will add up to give you a great set of earnings in return for all your hard work.
