ollydave Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 I have created this thread because of the misconceptions a lot of people have about Fiverr in general.The post is meant to educate newbies or people in General about a lot of the misconceptions here. I will start with mine. Just start your post with Rumour has it…(the rumour)Rumour has it… that when you are very active on the forum, your sales will increase or skyrocket.The forum has no major connection with how much sales or impressions you getMod Note: Just to be clear - this thread is about rumors and things that people believe about Fiverr but are NOT true.

ollydave Posted December 12, 2017 Author Share Posted December 12, 2017 Rumor has it . . .The 1st bidder gets the job in BR, so don’t bother after 15 bidsAll $5 to $10 buyers are troublemakers; they never buy anything expensiveFor the first time in a really long time. I used the BR last week. I applied for a job that had over 25 offers but still got the job.Plus the job was over $400. I hope people will learn. Most times, it is full of canned responses that are sometimes unrelated to the request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wp_kid Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 One of my top buyer’s 1st project with me was a $5 project. Guess what! That order she/he placed without discussion. 😃Total number of sell is same for me. But my number of repeating Buyers has increased. I believe I made quit improvement in my conversation. Fiverr Forum is a great place to learn from experienced sellers. Visiting forum has no direct connection to sell but new sellers should spend time on reading discussions. Forum is a goldmine of knowledge 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I noticed there are some people that lurk at every post and either copy and paste answers or simply put unnecessary replies thinking it will improve their sales magically.
