Gig request advice

[translations2u]

If I want to find people to write SEO optimised articles for me, which is the best category to advertise my gig request: Writing & Translation or Internet Marketing - Articles & PR submission or would this one only attract people who do submissions rather than writing?

I don’t think you really need to put out a gig request. There are many sellers already who offer “keyword rich” type articles. I’d just do a search for "Optimized article"



I did this and found 13,858 results including



http://fiverr.com/robt_choice/write-on-page-seo-optimized-article



http://fiverr.com/samanyanga/write-a-unique-keyword-optimized-article-for-you ( a featured seller)



And even this top rated seller http://fiverr.com/flyby



Please note these are pseudo-random selections and not endorsements. And per the rules of the channel they’re not “offers to buy” just showing the power of the search tool

Thanks, anarchofighter. Understood :). Quite funny though, because I already messaged 2 of those sellers about their gigs and neither of them got back to me! Find this quite a lot.

From my experience(only lets me suggest gigs relevant to the category sigh), a lot of people submit their request to the directory submissions area but I don’t think many people just write an article there, it usually involves a submission. There is a category, “Writing & Translation -> SEO KEYWORD OPTIMIZATION” which would be most relevant, I would think.

Why do gig requests get turned down? As mentioned above when you message people a lot of time they go unanswered. Therefore I would like to post a gig request so that those who are interested or are actively working their gigs at that moment can contact me.



I’ve made 2 gig requests,

1. Looking for someone with a fluent understanding of Inkfrog eBay lister to create listings
   
   
2. And the other was a request for theme for a website I’ve already built.
   
   
   
   Ok, #2 I could understand, hundreds of theme developers out there…but the first one I can’t find a gig with someone familiar with Inkfrog.
   
   
   
   Now I’m looking for someone to ‘get’ rss feeds for me…not redistribute mine. I hope it gets approved.
