Hey Fiverr-land, are you ready to get all gooey inside and talk about the time of the year when Cupid comes to visit? Valentine’s Day is fast approaching and whether you’re a Romeo or Juliet, there’s bound to be someone special in your life that deserves a Fiverr tinted arrow of luuurve.

To make this nice and easy for you (especially the guys, we know what you’re like) our code-ninjas have put together a special section just for Valentine flavoured gifts.

We’ve already had hundreds of new Valentine’s Gig submissions this year and as you’ll see when you click on THIS LINK, there’s an abundance of cute, fun, cuddly and affectionate gifts – Perfect for that special someone.

Think you’ve got enough heart to make your own Valentine’s Gig? Then listen up! All you need to do to be considered for this fully moderated section is add the tag ‘valentine’ or ‘valentines’ to your Gig. Our gorgeous, bunny tailed content team will be checking out your submissions daily to find suitable Gigs for the Fiverr love machine.

Happy Gigging Fi♥errs

PS. If you’ve ordered any Gigs already and want to share with us what you’re sending your loved one, leave a comment with a link in the messages below and we’ll check them out.

The Fiverr Community can do that for you!

How does one show spirit within the community? User Forgetaboutit has the right idea on their radio commercial Gig, by encouraging the use of other services available on Fiverr.

A quick read of their Gig description reveals a bonus extra if you use a Fiverr voice over artist to create the commercial that will be played:

“We will DOUBLE your FIRST order if you use a Fiverr voice over professional to record your spot.” – Nice.

We think that this shows great community enterprise and can’t wait to see other examples of the same. Have you ever bought several Fiverr Gigs in the aim of one goal? Perhaps created a video using several Gigs or helped start your business with the aid of Fiverr sellers. We’d love to hear from you!

Introducing: Fiverr Levels – The ability to Upscale Your Gig Business and Make Even More Money!

Published by Fiverr Team on January 10, 2012 in New Features and News. 239 Comments Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , .

We’re kicking off 2012 with a major new feature on Fiverr that is going to be a game-changer for many of you!

The code-ninjas at Fiverr HQ have been working relentlessly, preparing an arsenal of tools to enable even more sellers with the ability to make more money. There are so many hard working entrepreneurs out there striving to deliver top quality Gigs and be Fiverr’s very best, that we can now recognise for their hard work and dedication with our biggest upgrade to Gig selling since… EVER?!

Fiverr heavyweight Professor Puppet stepped up to the role of presenting a short introduction. He’s a great example of a user that has built up a successful Fiverr business from scratch, utilising the tools available to offer high quality Gig content to thousands of happy buyers.

Ladies and gentleman, we bring to you: Fiverr Levels! [Take it away, Professor.]

Excited much? Knew it! Let’s talk details.

Resources previously available to just a handful of selected Top Sellers are now being opened up to the entire Gigging community via Fiverr Levels. There are three different Fiverr Levels as Professor Puppet explained. These are named Level 1, Level 2 and Top Rated Seller.

As you become eligible for these different Levels you will unlock an array of money making tools to use at your disposal. As you continue to grow as a seller on Fiverr, you’ll unlock more features that’ll help you make even more money!

We’ve broken them down for you here:

Yes we know, you’re salivating at the prospect of adding Extras to your Gigs and being able to accept multiple purchases. As long as you’re active on Fiverr and making sales, whilst meeting the above criteria then you can expect to receive an email very soon notifying you on your updated Level 1, 2 or Top Rated Seller status.

You’ll also notice that we’ve given the user interface a facelift in some key areas, improving the overall look of your Gigs and user pages. We won’t show you here, but hope you like the changes!

We can’t wait to hear your thoughts (in the comments below) and are looking forward to seeing you make use of all the new tools at your disposal and turning your Fiverr store into a real income that you can rely on!

Happy Gigging guys!

The Fiverr Team.

Santa Auditions – Blooper Reel

Published by sam on December 28, 2011 in Creative Gigs. 25 Comments Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , .

Hola Fiverr Community, how’s it going? We trust you are all feeling festively plump after a splendid holiday break. What’s everyone been up to?

Now Christmas is over and we’re all nibbling on the leftovers, we thought it’d be a great opportunity to show you another type of leftover – Santa Auditions, created by the fantastic Gnu Films.

Check out this brilliant little video:

With a little bit of help from some great Fiverr sellers, Gnu Films created what we think is an awesome compilation. Our community is nothing short of amazing and up at Fiverr HQ we were overwhelmed when we first saw it. It’s a great example of what you can do when you really put your mind to it!

Thanks Gnu Films – you’re awesome!

Also, here’s a big shout out to the Fiverrs who featured in Santa Audition Tape Bloopers:

oldbittygrandma – Santa doesn’t smoke!
gilligan48 – Lactose intolerant Santa.
robertocarlos – Dude, your hand hasn’t even got a hat!
pinkkoala – Unconvincing. You don’t even have a beard…
doblecombo – Is Santa Italian now?
krazyretarded – He likes his milk!

We hope you’re all set for a great New Year’s Eve party and look forward to many more fantastic community efforts in 2012!

Happy Gigging guys!

Oops! You’ve Reached the End of the Internet…

Published by sam on December 4, 2011 in Oh Fiverr you so silly!. 8 Comments Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , .

404 pages on the Internet are a pain in the butt, we agree. There’s few things more annoying than misplacing a page or Gig, which is why we decided to make the whole experience just a little more bearable.

Here at Fiverr HQ we like to poke fun at ourselves as much as anybody else and occasionally when a 404 page rears it’s ugly head, it’ll be a nice surprise rather than an ugly ‘you’ve reached the end of the Internet’ horror story.

Even the Fiverr 404 Page will blow your socks off!

Introducing the new Fiverr 404 Page (It kinda feels wrong introducing such a thing) where you’ll find some of our more idiosyncratic Fiverr users announcing ‘OOPS!’ in their own whimsical ways.

In all honestly, although we’re very proud of our silliness, we do hope that on this occasion you never actually end up on our 404 page. C’mon guys, there’s Gigs to buy and sell out there!

Think you’ve got what it takes to be one of the randomly rotating videos on here? Drop our wonderful support team a line or leave a comment below.

Happy Gigging guys.

The Gift That Keeps on Gigging

Published by mark on November 30, 2011 in New Features. 76 Comments Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , , .

Ah yes, here come the holidays, and Santa isn’t the only one coming to town this year. In the spirit of the season we are introducing a Gigtastic new feature that will enable you to give the unique gift of Fiverr for friends or loved ones.

Seriously, this is cooler than Santa’s fridge!

Introducing: Fiverr Gift Cards

If you’re anything like me, you usually wait until the very last minute to get your holiday presents. I find that 4:30PM on December the 24th is a great time to go shopping. Who wants to deal with the dangers of going to the store on Black Friday? Who wants to risk being trampled by people looking for this year’s hot holiday gift? This year, why not give the gift of Fiverr?

Here’s how it works:

Fiverr Gift Cards can be purchased for $5, $20, and $50, this way you get to choose how much you really care. It’s not like Joe from work and your girlfriend or boyfriend are equally important to you, right?

To purchase a gift card, first login to your Fiverr account. See that fancy new button on the homepage of Fiverr? (above) Click it. You will be taken to the order page:

Fill out the required information and click “Continue”

Looks pretty neat, right?

Your friend or loved one will receive a cool email showing a Fiverr Gift Card, along with a personalized message. The email will include a link to sign in to Fiverr and redeem their gift card. If they are not already a Fiverr user, they can click the link and register. Once logged in with their new or existing Fiverr account, the gift card funds will be in the “My Shopping” tab.

It’s that simple!

So this year, don’t get stuck frantically trying to find a gift last minute, or getting something lame that will be returned the next day. What do you get for the person who has everything? The answer is The Fiverr Gift Card. Spread the holiday cheer with the gift that keeps gigging!

Merry Gigging!

[UPDATE: Here's a quick video with a walk-through of how Gift Cards work]

How to say “Thank you” on Fiverr

Published by sam on November 24, 2011 in Tips. 39 Comments Tags: , , , , , , , , , , , , .

The leaves have all but fallen off the trees, it’s getting very cold out, the holiday season has just begun and that can only mean one thing: Thanksgiving is here!  While all the cooks are busy in our kitchens preparing a feast and the rest of you are playing board games and watching awful re-runs on the television, we wanted to take a moment to thank all of you, our Fiverr users for being such great stars!

Being nice and treating others with kindness goes a long way especially on Fiverr. So here’s 5 top tips on how to say ‘Thank you’ to users that you connect with:

5. Leave feedback. Make sure the buyer or seller knows they’re appreciated. It’s a great public way to say “thank you”:

4. Whether you’re a buyer or a seller, follow up on the Gig after it’s been delivered. It’s great to hear what your hard work has been used for and if indeed it’s working!

3. If what you’ve received was extra awesome then why not order the Gig again for a friend? You could even buy another one of the services they offer by visiting their profile page. You’ll never know how much it’ll make their day!

2. Try and deliver a little more than what you’re offering in your Gig. Everyone knows it’s more fun to give than receive!

1. When a seller really goes out of their way, making a great Gig for you, thank them by sharing their Gig with your friends using the social media ‘share’ buttons.

Thank you, from all the staff at Fiverr HQ. We wish you a wonderful Thanksgiving. Try not to eat too much turkey & have a fun day shopping tomorrow!

Happy Gigging.
