Re:Ask HN: How was your experience using gig marketplaces s.... by samrohn778 on Monday October 08, 2018 @10:10PM (#18172842)
- I have completed about ~150 programming gigs on fiverr as a seller. Most of them are small tasks related to python/ google app scripts. - My average selling price is ~50$. Buyers on fiverr are moslty looking for short-term projects or get some very specific things done. - It highly competitive, especially if you are just getting started. Building a reputation through reviews is very important for potential buyers to find you. - Best advice would be to get around 10 reviews by pricing the service around $5-$25(easy to get gigs in the range). Once you have some good reviews, you will rank better in their search and have the leverage to charge buyers more. - Nice thing about fiverr is you don't have to bid for work as a seller. Potential buyers will contact you if they find out what you offer through your gig description. Experience so far has been good- buyers are straightforward and happy if you give them quality service.
