How to use AI for proofreading, according to Fiverr: AI Educational Article for Sellers - Proofreading & Editing (fiverr.com) It's obviously written with a ton of AI tools and then "enhanced" to make it pass AI detectors. Either that, or the author is just really into fancy buzzwords and too confident in himself. He shouldn't be, when he can't even spell cliché with the correct accent. The article lacks proper spacing between paragraphs. And even ChatGPT knew that "&" is clunky. Some proofreader. Maybe he should have used AI. 🙂

My active gig is not showing in my profile section where the gig can be edit. I didn't edit my gig or see my edit and also new gig option is not showing.

I had created my Fiverr seller account in 2022 and also created 1 gig on it. But unfortunately, I couldn't worked it constantly so I gave it up. Now I opened my account as I am free now. I got my gig paused. I have created a new one and deleted that paused gig. My new gig is showing on 13th of 14 pages but it is not showing in online seller filter. Can anyone help in this case? Please reply me if anybody has solution regarding this problem. You can share your experience related to this problem.

For some orders, the work sample video I added is not visible in my gig page. What can be the reason?

Harnessing the potential of social media can greatly benefit your Fiverr freelance business by showcasing expertise, connecting you with potential clients, and driving sales. To get the most of your efforts on social media, you’ll need to take a strategic and consistent approach. Here are our key tips for leveraging social media effectively to promote your freelance services. Establish a Strong Online Presence Treat your online presence as your virtual business card, prioritizing professionalism while highlighting your expertise and personality. Use a high-quality profile picture and craft a compelling bio highlighting your services. To ensure easy recognition try to maintain consistency in your username and branding across all platforms. Showcase Visuals Go beyond telling potential clients about your skills–show them! Think of creative ways to share visual examples whether it’s with images, graphics or videos. Highlight your best projects and successes, and consider sharing case studies or success stories. Before-and-afters, behind-the-scenes, and other project highlights are also other great content ideas for showing your audience what you do. Engage and Network Engaging with your audience is crucial. Respond to comments and messages, join discussions with others in your niche, and provide valuable insights to build meaningful connections.

Provide Value Beyond Promotion Avoid the pitfall of solely posting to promote your services. Offer valuable content to your audience, such as tips, industry news, or educational material presented in an engaging manner. This not only establishes your authority but can also attract new followers who may convert into clients over time. Utilize Hashtags and Keywords Expand your reach by using relevant hashtags and keywords. Research industry-specific terms and trending hashtags to ensure your content reaches the right audience. Incorporate these strategically to increase visibility and attract potential clients actively seeking your services. Tailor Content for Different Platforms Understand the unique characteristics and audience preferences of each social media platform. Tailor your approach accordingly, considering factors like LinkedIn's professional audience or Instagram's visual appeal. Adapting to each platform's nuances enhances engagement and widens your reach. Social media can significantly enhance your freelance business. By following these tips, you can make sure your time on the platforms pays off by attracting more potential clients and increasing your sales.

Hi - I notice that when I update my gig title correctly, it saves without any issues but still does not display properly on my "manage gigs" page under "Active Gigs". In this case, "English" is not capitalized but should be, and the gig title itself displays as a sentence fragment. Do potential buyers have a view like this? It looks a bit sloppy and embarrassing when trying to pitch proofreading services 😉

Hi Fiverr community! I face a issue in online mode! Problem is that i will refresh my Fiverr profile but when i check my status in online seller Gig not found in online seller. What is problem?

hello everybody, I just had a shocking experience with Fiverr's Customer Support handling a cancellation request. I'm currently the second best rated PRO pianist in Fiverr, Top Seller, I'm working hard to keep dignified fares and high quality deliveries trying to stay away from this shameful war on prices going on here (completely neglected by Fiverr). My prices are the double or more of all the other top pianists and I still get gigs, just 5 stars reviews. 'Till last Friday. Some days ago a client sent me a misleading reference link and unclear requirements. To make sure we were on the same page I mentioned I would have enhance the piano of his house track as we did other times. First delivery, he didn't mean a piano, he already has piano (of such quality that I thought it was the demo to be enhanced) In the ref. track there are just piano and low backing pads. Out of my kindness I sent the pads too. He doesn't want the pads. After messages and waste of time it turned out he wanted a lead synth as in some parts of another reference which he did included in the requirements as a second link but never mentioned in the conversations. Neither he mentioned the words synth or lead. I try to explain to him that his current piano will conflict with another leading sound and that he would need to fix something first, with a long, not due, explanation of the issues of his current, amateur arrangement. He insists and I deliver the synths, 5 different sounds, lots of different lines one after the other for him to edit and use where he wants as I don't see they will fit. He's not capable to mount them right in his project session or edit them, so he wants me to do it and add pauses in between the lines. I do that too. He doesn't like the synth, of course, there's no place for that synth in his arrangement. Again I try to explain why and what we should do first but he wouldn't listen not realising that in the reference where the synth shows up there's no leading piano. He wouldn't listen. By the way he never apologised or offered extra payments for the extra deliveries even if I mentioned to him that his communication wasn't right and that I already didi a lot of not due, extra work. I start loosing my patience and I tell him that if he doesn't trust me a bit after 5 orders together, is better if we go separate ways. He gets all upset saying I'm bulshitting him and making up excuse because I'm not able to provide what he wants, I don't know nothing about electronic music (I've just arranged a song for Gorgon City and many others in these years) and he contacts the customer support. I feet kind of relieved assuming they would handle the situation and explain something to him. Sure. Inexplicably he doesn't reject the delivery so the order is marked as completed. I would have negotiate a partial refund, as we had to do another time. That time it was still in a reasonable range, this time it would have been completely unfair because all the troubles came from his lack of communication, but still. Anyway the order is complete so he gives me a 1 star review and I do the same. This is already upsetting enough but the incredible, worst part, is that after two days, without having being contacted by anybody I just receive a notification that the order has been cancelled by CS, the earned money (220$) sent back to the client while the bad review is still visible! So after working like 4 or 5 time what was due, I got the worst than one can get and nobody asked for my point of view. I'm writing and insisting with the customer support like crazy because this cannot be acceptable by any means. After the usual generic answers and corporate lingo they actually started mentioning things about the order, the first answers made obvious they had no idea what happened, then they started mentioning things here and there in our messages but as I write this they couldn't tell me what exactly I didn't deliver yet, and it looks like they only consider the first delivery, which was a piano and not the lead synth the client had in his mind but never requested. AT some point (message attached) they even said "we can cancel any order if the buyer feels like they did not receive what they paid for". That blowed my mind. It can't be true! so the client has no responsibility at all about what he communicates and how he behaves?! I'm so disgusted, shocked and humiliated about how Fiverr and the client treated me. They make you feel you are just their milking cows, you're not part of the team or a valuable asset to be valued and protected, they just want the buyers to keep buying and if they're upset they'll just refund them with your money! This guy even had another similar issue with another seller before, his rating is 4.3, which is very low for a client, I only had 5 stars at that point, but they preferred to take completely his side without even checking on me! Isn't all this scary!? What kind of working environment are they building here? Hope somebody will find this useful, best wishes and good luck to everybody. Leo

I was also shocked when I saw this and I'm glad someone else notice this. This was an article that was presumably sent to me because I have gigs in the editing subcategory. Of all the people to send this article to, this was the worst possible group. No spacing between paragraphs Headlines not capitalized Bullet point list doesn't have bullets Pointing to tools that are not "AI" as AI (CopyScape has been around since 2004.... its primary offering is NOT AI) "clichè" should be either cliche or cliché. More to the point, any "foreign" words should be italicized to indicate their foreignness. If written in English, cliche is fine. Think about how Americans pronounce it ("cleesh"/"cleek") as opposed to Europeans, including the famously monoglot British people ("clee-shay"). The accent is wrong. What the author wrote is pronounced "clee-shuh", not clie-shay. It is incorrect in multiple languages. This is basic French - and English - and une grave erreur was made here. Yes, that's an multilingual accent joke. That's my big takeaway. There's more. The whole piece is a disaster from a proofreading and editing perspective. It needs serious work. Surely a piece that talks about AI as the future of proofreading should be written well and not littered with such obvious errors, all of which the tools that the author suggest would have picked up on? A piece that talks about checking for errors and fact checking would... not make these mistakes? It seems to me that that this content was generated by AI and then parts were altered to make AI detectors think it was written by a human. ChatGPT doesn't use &, but Google Gemini does. ChatGPT loves the word plethora. But no generative AI software would spell cliche wrong - it would produce very generic, surface level content, written with better spelling and grammar. Based on these observations, I believe this was written by AI and then various aspects were deliberately made worse to pass the majority of AI detectors (it succeeds at this) - at the cost of what could have been a good and informative article. The conclusion is fantastical if this is what Fiverr's AI editors are putting out. Any editor that cares about their output would not have published this in its present form, whether written by AI or by human. I am genuinely shocked that Fiverr not only published this, but felt it was appropriate to send this out to an audience of the people most likely to see all these errors and most likely to reject the entire premise of the article. This article has failed in every respect - it doesn't even work for marketing. I haven't looked at anything else in the AI Hub. If this is the level of quality that the program has to offer, Fiverr needs to reconsider its approach. This is not how you enhance work with AI and it is the antithesis of complex AI services. I'm shocked and appalled that this was published and marketed. This is exactly why I keep telling Fiverr at every opportunity that it needs to rethink its AI future. In slightly related news, on May 1, Medium is going to forbid all AI-generated content from its partner program. Medium, like Fiverr, tried for a whole year to do the whole AI thing, mostly trusting users to disclose their use of AI. It failed. Badly. Fiverr should be watching what platforms like Medium are doing about bad AI writing and reconsidering what they are doing. This platform has good writers who use and understand AI and have responsible and transparent policies about it. Why not use them to write your AI hub articles? I just don't get it.

I have already active mostly 20 hr, but I have not any order ?

I worry that the value for money question will result only in a “race to the bottom” on pricing. Here’s a possible, scenario (and I hope I’m wrong on this). Decent sellers (who charge appropriately) will start getting bad ratings because, when prompted with a question on value for money, many buyers (even after agreeing to a price and being very happy with the result) will simply think, “well, it could have been cheaper”. This is a natural thought that most rational people will have. Of course it could be cheaper. However, that doesn’t mean it should be cheaper. So decent sellers will start to lose business as their ratings steadily fall, so then they’ll be forced to lower their prices. Then what? They’ll get more orders, at a lower rate and deliver work worth much more than they’re charging. However, many buyers, when asked about the value for money will still think, “well, it could have been cheaper”, because of course it could! Now the cycle repeats and everyone’s prices are forced lower and lower. It used to be that decent services cost more, but now decent sellers will have to undercharge or take a hit on orders as their ratings drop. This could be even more pronounced for Pro and Top Rated Sellers, seeing as buyer expectations will be even higher for them (understandably). I do think there are times that one can get a perfect score for value for money. Getting tipped is a good indicator that a buyer thinks the service was worth more than they paid. However, this might indicate that the seller should be raising their prices, putting them at more risk of getting poorer scores for “value for money”. I hope I’m wrong on this but I think it’s a reasonable concern. I just hope in two years time we’re not going to be in a place where everyone charges $5 for everything and has a 3.5 star average. I think the quality of the delivery and the cost of delivery are very important measures, but they should not be measured in one rating. These should be two separate questions as they are both variables in their own right.

I'm not surprised. I wouldn’t put my name on anything Fiverr has released recently. It’s subpar at best . The irony is that a writer with over 10 years of experience, who is the editor-in-chief of a newspaper with 2.4 million readers annually, and who has clients like the biggest telecom operator in Norway under his belt, isn’t considered pro enough to rewrite articles on Fiverr. Certainly not pro enough to write a press realease. Despite being vetted by Fiverr as a copywriter and considered a great addition to their pro catalog, they still don’t think I’m capable of rewriting an article or issuing a press release under the pro banner. But they can still release trash like this and get away with it.

Believe it or not, Fiverr made my dream come true. I picked up my first instrument (guitar) when I was 7 years old, and studied with youtube and learnt from my older friends who were such good instrumentists. Later, I've picked up on piano as well, but I never had the chance to convince my parents to follow a musical school, and had to do it on my own. When I was in highschool, I got myself a copy of Ableton (which is a digital audio workstation) with the allowance money. Since then, I've experimented with producing music for myself, but never had the guts to release anything. The signs were there, but I always hesitated to pursue my dream of composing music for a living. Then, in University, I graduated Law School, and practised law, as a legal advisor for 4 years. The only constant in my life so far, was producing music and experimenting with music and sound design. In 2021, I've enrolled myself in a music production course, and realised that my level was quite advanced, eventhought I was self-taught. That gave me the courage to concieve the idea of maybe I can make some pocket-money out of this in my spare time. Therefore, in October 2022, I've found Fiverr and it's business model of Gigs, and decided to try it out. At the time, I asked my cousin for help, since he knew much more about sales and marketing, and also we were not looking for a quick cash grab. I was in charge of composing and producing the music, and he was in charge of sales & marketing. We found our niche of Video Game Music, since we are avid gamers, and the time spent playing videogames served well on my side, knowing how the music enhances different events and feelings that the game should express, and on his side it helped a lot when briefing with the customers, knowing what questions to ask. We even had some excel sheets with essential questions and flavour questions. We were very organised, and treated freelancing here as a very serious business. We analyzed our competition, learnt a lot from them, and created our first Gig which was priced, of course, at 5$. We've got 3 orders in the first 2 weeks (which was crazy if you think about it), and after that it was radio silence until January. In January we got another order, and things slowly picked up, and by March 2023, we were having around 15 orders/month on average. Then, we hit a brick wall, and decided to create our second gig, third gig and so on, and improve our first one to scale it as much as possible. From April 2023, it really started growing and the orders were quite constant. Unfortunately, in late May 2023, my cousin left since he had to focus on University studies, and there I was, having to learn the ropes of sales and marketing (which I never wanted to do, but I had to do it). By July 2023, the income made from composing music on Fiverr summed with the income from composing music outside FIverr surpassed the income I was having from my law dayjob and made me think that I could do this full time. At this time, I was working 8hr/day at the office, and 4 hr/day in the evening as a part-time job composing music on Fiverr. When the orders were piling up, there were numerous times I had to wake up 2 hours before going to office, to make sure I can create and deliver quality for my customers. This way, some days were 14+hours filled with work, and burned me out a bit. That's when I've took the risk and decided I want to pursue my calling instead of the boring office job I didn't liked. Therefore, in October 2023 I've quit my job and went freelancing full time. The first 3 months were super scary, and I often had the anxiety of thinking I did the wrong thing. The income was low, customers were fewer than before and most of my orders were from returning customers. But I was the happiest man on earth, since I did what I loved to earn my bread. Since I had a lot of free time, I've re-thinked how I marketed myself and did some drastic changes to my offers, my Gigs, and did a lot of A-B testing. In December 2023, being quite unsatisfied with my performance, I took the decision on joining the Seller Plus program and get in touch with my Succes Manager. And God, how the things changed since then. I was blessed to have the chance to meet the most involved person that helped me develop my Fiverr business and presence way further than I've ever expected. Always responsive, always helpful. With the advices from the Succes Manager and the will to risk it all for my passion, I've powered trough and took even more drastic decisions for my 2 most performing gigs. And you know what? It worked! Since then I'm having my best time here and each month is better than the last. Now I finally raised enough ammount of money to build my new recording and producing studio. I've finally received the City Permit (Authorization to Build) and the studio should be done by October 2024. All of this with the help of Fiverr which made it really easy for me (I'm not the most tech-savy person) to sell my talent and skill. Since October 2022, I've completed more than 230 Orders (90 of them being completed in the last 3 months), composed over 300 soundtracks, created sound effects and designed sound for over 100 indie video games. If you could tell my past self that this will happen, it wouldn't ever believe you. I know it's not much compared to other sellers that I look up to in my category and further, but I want to give back and hopefully help the new sellers that just started their journey here, and learn from my mistakes. This is what worked for me: Treat every order like it's your first. I had to learn this the hard way. At some point, after I got a consistent number of sales, I was starting to streamline my process of receiving orders and deliver them. Don't get me wrong, I do believe that a good business has to be streamlined to be the most efficient, but until you're not having 10 orders/day, it's not the case. My mistake was that I was less involved in the communication with my customers, and eventhought my products were higher quality than the ones from my first months of selling here, I wasn't retaining the customers like I did before. I realised that from that period of time (aproximately 3 months) there were only 2 customers that returned, while from the earlier timeframe (before streamlining my briefing and delivering process) there is still a great number of returning customers up to this day. Get involved and understand their needs personally and authentic, and they will stick with you even months later. Be prepared to revise over and over again. Of course I've started with unlimited revisions. After the first few months, I've encountered "that customer" that requested revision after revision and micromanaged everything that came into the production process, to a point where I've asked myself if he's a professional, dropshipping my services. The order lasted 2 weeks over the initial delivery time agreed. I was burned out and made the mistake of letting my ego take the wheel and confronted the customer on his practise. He accepted the delivery, never left a public review, but left a private review that hurt me even 6 months after that order. This was way before the new system was implemented, and with the help of my Succes Manager I've found out there's a private review hurting me like a truck. Now you think, "well, I can limit my revisions to only 2" but that don't work either. I've had customers keeping me in a 5+ revisions loop eventhought my offer included only 2. Don't make the mstake I've made and think the number of agreed revisions will be respected by your customers. Be prepared to revise over and over again each time you meet "that customer", because there will always be one at your frontdoor. Power trough that and provide your best service, since most of the buyers aren't unreasonable. This is how the revision system works sadly, and it's better to addapt and overcome it, especially when you're not like 500+ reviews in and a private one can hurt you even months after. Be authentic. Don't try to copy others in your category. Analyze their gigs, services and offers, and try to do better, of course, but don't try to imitate what they're doing since it's very less likely that you'll steal their audience, especially if you're looking up to seasoned sellers. The market is indeed very plentyful and customers are bombarded with 17.000 gigs when searching a certain category, but don't forget that you're selling on the internet. There will always be someone that will choose you because your unique traits. I've made the mistake to try to do what my competitors do, starting from the keywords, the style of the thumbnails, the style of how they've wrote Gig's description, and so on. Didn't worked. Why would've anyone pick me instead of my competitor who has more reviews than me and it's been there before I was? The momment I've realised this, and decided just to be myself and create my Gigs the way I thought it was good, I started gathering like-minded customers that are returning regularely, and the new ones are pretty much "my cup of tea", with of course the little exceptions (see "that customer" from above that creeps at your inbox right now). Use translation tools. As you might see from my writing, english is not my first language. Don't expect your customers to be english teachers or natives. When briefing with the customer, it's very important that you are 100% sure of what's the task and it's flavours. If you see your customer struggles to explain and you're not 100% sure of what are the fine details of the needed work, don't do my mistake and take the order and find out when you're delivering. You're loosing important time. Your time! Instead, you can see where your customer's from, translate your question in his language, send it and kindly ask him/her to respond in their native language. It happened to me many times that I had to "guess" some specific details, and since using translation tools to make sure I understand what's needed to be done exactly, the revision requests are fewer. Don't try closing the deal as soon as possible. When starting, I was always trying to close the deal as soon as possible, to make sure the potential customer won't pivot to other seller. Don't do my mistake! Make sure you put a lot of emphasis on the briefing process, since (at least in my field of work) customer requests are very subjective. If you're talking about art (music and audio in my case), some customers will see as "perfect" something that you don't. Take your time and discuss every little detail to make sure you understand their vision before accepting the order. It's risky because you might loose the potential customer to another seller? Well, yes, but it's more important to make sure you deliver exactly what your customer needs, and not get stuck in a revision loop or get over the deadline with "last minute details". Remember that every action has a direct consequence on your ranking spot and your gig's traffic, so think twice before saying you got all you need to start working on the order. Provide early drafts. It saves you so much time! With an early draft, you can make sure you won't loose your time in the wrong direction. Maybe you had all the needed details from the customer when starting the work, but guess what? There are a lot of customers that change their mind overnight. Provide them a draft as soon as humanly possible and ask for confrmation, so your time won't be wasted re-doing the job. I used to deliver the work without providing an early draft and it was a mistake. Almost 1/4 of my customers changed their mind overnight and shifted the key elements that we've agreed on initially, and when asking for the revision, I had to change structural elements of my work, resulting in almost re-doing everything since I had to addapt the rest of the work to their new requests. Educate your customers. I was just delivering the order and hoped for a returning customer. It was lazy, and it was a mistake. Before/When delivering, try to put together a small debrief on what you've actually done in your work. Your customers aren't stupid and eventhought you're an expert on your field, you could be surprised on how much your customers can learn from you and how that can beneffit you on future orders. Not long ago I've started sending my customers an explanation text with what instruments I've used, why I've used them, what's their role, what's the musical theory behind the composition and what's my personal take on all those things. This thing works! Next time you're collaborating, you'll have a much easier time to transpose customer's vision into your service, because they will know how to answer your specific questions! Give your customers some options You have that potential customer that wants to buy your 50$ service, but his budget is only 35$? I used to turn down those customers since my highest discount rate was at 20% and that way I lost potential returning customers! It was a mistake. Instead, at some point I've decided I'll take those requests, but I'll double down on the delivery time. Instead of 5 days delivery time, offer it in 10 days. That way, you will not loose a potential returning customer and you won't have to fit that project into your main scheddule. You can do it whenever you have a spare hour or two, since your delivery time is doubled! It works like a charm to me, and you'll be shocked on how many customers are not in a rush, eventhought they say so in their first message. Time is money, friend! Collect your own data I made the mistake on relying on memory and on the data shown by analytics to drive my business. Don't do that. It will save you a lot of time and you'll make informed decisions if you make your own spreadsheed with everything that happens with a relevancy for your Gigs. Try to track the most important stuff, such as: keywords performance, new customers/time frame, returning customers/time frame, types of projects done, the most asked questions or inquiries by your customers, orders that landed you tips and WHY that happened, changes made to the gig related to key factors etc. Be patient If you're treating every order like it's your first order, it's impossible not to grow. Don't make the mistake I've done by panicking when orders are not coming. It's not worth your time and your mental health. Instead, be patient, do your best on the services you provide, and try to slowly build your returning customer base. The best you can do proactively, is to fine-tune your Gigs, but be careful with that, since back-to-back changes might screw up the ranking algorithm (source for this is my Succes Manager). If you're looking to do A-B testing, wait at least 3-4 weeks in between, to have at least the minimum data to compare. I feel like there are much more to be told, but I just realised this post will take an eternity to read anyway, so I'll stop for now. I really hope my journey of pursuing my dream with Fiverr's help can motivate you and give you the strenght to power-trough rough moments, and that you can find something positive in the lessons I've learnt from my mistakes. Don't give up, and trust your skills and talent!

I have provided human-written content to buyers on Fiverr for over 10 years. But now, this AI phenomenon is destroying the businesses of honest writers like myself. Buyers now like to use AI detectors to test my work to see if it is AI generated content. For some reason, these AI detectors usually claim that 30% to 50% of my work is AI generated, even though it should be 0%. These AI detection companies even have negative reviews on Trustpilot for their inaccuracies, but that isn't always good enough to convince buyers. Have any other writers gone through similar experiences?

I did the cover image to be 1600 x 550 pixels but it doesn't seem to fit. What is the Fiverr forum cover image size?

Hey there @jahodan Since your Gig is active and available to all users and you are online, my advice would be to contact our Customer Support. As you might know, on the Forum, we are not able to provide answers to all Fiverr account-specific questions, but we can point you in the right direction. Please open a ticket at https://www.fiverr.com/support_tickets/new or send an email to support@fiverr.com. They will be more than happy to assist you. Thank you for your understanding.

I joined Fiverr in 2013, expecting to make pocket money from random online purchases. The rest was mostly a surprise. I win. Probably. I don't know. Do I get a prize?

So I had one of those buyers who ask for Y, purchase an order for Y, are told throughout the entire order we're developing Y and, after delivery, that buyer requests additional Z (not wanting to pay extra). After realizing I was never supposed to deliver Z, but only Y, the buyer gave up and simply accepted the delivery, leaving a 1 star review. The problem was: the buyer left a review saying my code was buggy. The delivered code on the platform is completely free of bugs, which Fiverr or anyone can verify, but after reaching out to the support Fiverr insists it's an opinion. Saying I'm not communicative enough, or that I don't have great design taste, that's an opinion. Saying I delivered a buggy code, while the code is literally there without 1 single bug, it's a factually false statement. This isn't a subjective opinion, it's a factual lie, also called defamation, and anyone trying to say otherwise has literally 0 idea of the difference between a fact and an opinion. They also insist this review doesn't violate their Terms of Service and Community Rules. I guess we're all allowed to lie on facts and call it an opinion. We all know how Fiverr favors buyer all the time, just be safe out there.

Indeed it is! Here's my favorite claim: That's right, use Fiverr's AI, but make sure you buy a gig from Fiverr's legal experts before you do anything! Also "the exact boost you need when you need it". Just the sort of thing Grammarly and ProWritingAid would pick up on as "repetitive", not to mention that these tools are not, in general, about writing, but proofreading. No boost needed. Why a proofreading tool would cause plagiarism is also questionable and seems a bit "workman blaming tools" than... Anyway, I can just rip apart every single paragraph of both of these lamentable articles. Quillbot! That's literally only used for paraphrasing, which is essentially plagiarism by another name. The legal experts won't help very much here. All of the tools mentioned are for finalizing edits and are fine for commercial use. It's... the sellers.... that are the issue. It's the deceptive use of AI that is the issue. This AI Hub is... well, it's only the second article I've seen. I'm not impressed at all. Hire me Fiverr. Let me show you how to write content without AI that is actually informative and isn't ridden with informational, spelling, and grammatical errors. Although if your hub actually doesn't allow for proper paragraphs, forget it. I'm not putting my name on that.

The sad thing is that Fiverr is trying to push complex AI services ( = AI work made better by humans) and the imagination of most people - not just sellers - starts and ends with "I'll just get ChatGPT to spurt out some generic content and cover up my tracks. Job done!" I won't go into the fundamental deception and how that destroys consumer trust in the platform here, but instead focus on another angle. Complex AI services is something that Fiverr doesn't have enough of and the business trends index - despite being another woeful piece of GPT-written content - does have some great stuff in there in terms of gig ideas and research. What disappoints me is that even Fiverr is being lazy when it comes to pushing what it believes is a good AI product. I have no idea how that AI webinar went (can someone fill me in?) but at the very least, there are significant opportunities for sellers who can learn to create AI automation funnels and all kinds of other stuff for business - ChatGPT can easily be used in these to take care of the messages that nobody really reads (welcome to X and thank you for signing up!) as well as pulling leads from social media. Yet the majority of users seeking an easy gig - whether that's deceptively selling AI content as human written or just an easy gig - are... not jumping on this opportunity. This is literally complex AI services. Automation isn't that easy (no code is a lie if you really want to finesse your automations), but that's where the money is. People just want something for nothing. Fiverr is trying to encourage sellers do leverage AI so prices can go up and they can take care of this in-demand stuff, but they're targeting proofreaders with badly-written content that... just turns it into a bad joke. And using AI in such a way that violates some of the main principles behind the upcoming EU AI act (e.g. AI tools used to determine performance etc. must be transparent and well-explained. The success score is neither). It's just maddening to see how badly Fiverr is handling all of this - and how I get accused of not being technically savvy and "negative" about AI when it is quite the opposite. I see the potential. And seeing it squandered like this on a platform telling the world how it's a blah blah blah is... WHY? It's not. Fiverr is encouraging the worst use of AI. I don't know how they can't see that. Never mind the current profit of these deceptive gigs - what about the future lost cost in buyers who leave because they can't find an honest seller? Or an honest platform?

First of all: I'm not saying any of this to be rude, but to help you improve. 🙂 To turn potential clients into paying buyers, you need to leave a lasting and professional impression. I'm not seeing that on your gig. Your gig description and package details have multiple typos and grammatical errors. Attention to detail and first impressions matter. If it seems like you don’t care about these details, a buyer might assume you’ll put the same lack of effort into their website as you did your gig. Your description focuses too much on the features and not enough on the benefits these features bring to a buyer. Remember, people buy outcomes, not the features. Your portfolio isn't very impressive at the moment. As a new seller, be sure to use all available tools, including your portfolio. Use it to showcase your best work. It helps build trust and shows the buyer what you have on offer. With no reviews yet, your work must speak for itself. Your gig thumbnail doesn't look very professional. It mixes styles, using outdated graphics and fonts more suitable for a toy store than a professional web design gig. My first assosciation when visiting your gig, was "Toys'R Us". You could also consider having a professional gig video made, as videos can boost engagement with your gig. I hope this helps!
