How to Get More Buyers on Fiverr: Optimize Your Fiverr Gig



One of the most common questions asked on the Fiverr forum is how to get more buyers. People are either in a slump with sales and want to kick start their gigs again while others are trying to start from the bottom and just get their first sale.

The best way to get a buyer is to optimize your gig.

This involves keyword research and really thinking about the things buyers will want when searching for your gig. Once you have the keywords, you need to use them perfectly in your content.

Choose Keywords that Match Your Gig

Don’t just go for popular phrases because they are popular. You need to find keyword phrases that match your gig.

There’s no point me putting phrases in for videos on my writing or rewriting gigs. Fiverr buyers may come but they definitely won’t buy because it won’t be what they’re after. I have to find keyword phrases revolved around writing, blogging and other similar topics.

Use the Keywords Sparingly

It’s really easy to overuse the phrases in your gigs. The Fiverr system is quite useful by only allowing you to use the same phrases one or two times in your description, depending on the length.

Keyword stuffing will not help you rank well and it will not make your Fiverr gigs easy to read. Think about it from the buyer’s POV and write for them. Take the time to explain your gig in detail instead of focusing so much on your keywords.

Use Keywords in the Tags

There are tags that are the perfect place for your keyword phrases. Add a couple in there, thinking about the type of phrases that people will search for when looking for your Fiverr gigs.

Don’t overuse your keyword phrases though – although the Fiverr system doesn’t really allow this to happen.

Make Your Fiverr Gig Stand Out

While optimizing your Fiverr gig, you need to make it stand out. If you offer something similar to others, why should they choose you over the people with more feedback or a higher level? You may know that you offer something great but they don’t.

Make your Fiverr gig stand out with great images, a video and some genuine samples. These will help to show off your skills and help to build trust.

Optimizing your Fiverr gig is a great way to be found in searches but it won’t do everything. Give the Fiverr buyers a reason to buy anything you offer, whether you write, do SEO or just offer something funny and gimmicky.

Good luck at selling your Fiverr gigs and creating financial freedom.
