They call him Rapper Man



Hey Fiverrtastic Readers,
Are you looking for an awesome gig from a very cool seller. Well look no further than Rapper_Man. He is a top rated seller who will make you an awesome rap for any occasion. He made me a rap for a radio jingle. This seller went above and beyond what I expected! I needed it for a radio commercial for a internet rap radio show and well this commercial is absolutely amazing. I ordered a rap gig in the past and although it was impressive it could have been better. I'm not dropping names, but the seller didn't rap the way he shoulda. I guess it was my fault too I picked a beat that was too slow. Rapper_man restored my faith in rapping gigs though and I made an amazing cideo commercial to compliment the audio. Check it out below. I will keep everyone posted when this goes live on blog talk radio.



Rapper_man you have some amazing raw talent you should pursue rap music professionally if you haven't already. Fiverr is just a platform or a take off point. Fiverr is chump change to what you could make. You should also take advantage of as many gig extras as you can and as many gigs as you can. You have some amazing talent. Rapper_man you are an amazing seller and I wish you best of luck in your future endeavors. Keep me posted.

Until next time have a Fiverrtastic day peeps!

A gift to last a lifetime

Hey Fiverrtastic readers,
Have you ever looked for a gift and realized hey I need something simple, practicle, fun, and sincere. I had to find an amazing gift for my mom and did just that and turned to my faithful friend Fiverr.  Look no further than Fiverr for a lot of your basic gift needs. You can find some amazing hand made gifts and some amazing drawing gigs. arnolds makes some great customized dog tag jewelry They also do all different other custom products and the dog tag i recieved was worth way more than $5. If you want to check out some of their other awesome products go to www.custompicturegifts.com or www.stickpeoplestore.com. You all have got to check out these talented people. arnolds I think you should some how incorperate more $5 products on your fiverr account and you should tie the stick figure store in some how so people can get a feel for both products. You should also ad a video to each gig and don't forget to subcategorize. take advantage of the gig extras too they will get you more sales. Besides that you're a level 1 seller and I wish you all the best. Here is a picture the dog tag they sent me.

 
 
The next item i ordered was a $5 caricature from a Fiverr seller named coolart and this seller made an amazing caricature drawing for me for my mom. what i did was took 3 other previous orders and put all 4 together and it's the many faces of Josh. This is a must have for people who love artistic gigs. and artistic gigs don't last when the person starts getting multiple orders. they sometimes need to take a break for personal or home life reasons and well they just leave and come back when they can. A gig like this is a must have! If you want to check out some of this sellers other amazing gigs like their graffiti art gig believe me you won't be disappointed. coolart you're a level 1 seller and the only advice i can give is get ready for level 2 because when it happenes it will be a bumpy ride. You will have higher gig extras, more clients, and customers like to press buttons when you're a higher ranking seller. I wish you all the best of luck and I will follow up with you when I order the grafitti gig from you. Here is the caricature i recieved.

And here is the image i made and later put in a frame.

 
(these are 4 different orders, the other 3
 I have discussed in previous blogs)


So if you need something fun and simple for your next gift for a special someone just turn to someone who is a seller starting out like a new seller or level 1 seller. Level 2 and top rated sellers are amazing but when you have a popular gig everyone wants it like hot fresh bread. It may take a little research but it's well worth the wait. Or if you're patient and not in a time crunch which i'm always both then order from a level 2 or Top rated seller. The 2 sellers today were level 1 sellers and darn good ones. This will not be my last order. Don't forget that Fiverr now has subrated categories now so it makes it easier to categorize your gig and easier for people to find you .

                                      

I only give advice because I want sellers to be sucessful in every gig they have here on fiverr. When I first started my sales were great, but the customer service was bad. After 2 force cancels and having to revive and shut down gigs that don't work. Having to convince customers to change thier rating, and well pretty much keeping a positive track record all my gigs are above 90% and most of them are 100% perfect rating. I have a 94% rating overall. I am a level 2 seller and I've been here on fiverr 2 years. I get orders daily and I sometimes am lucky i can keep up with the orders i have and write my blog. I just found out the blog is on the 2nd page of altavista, 2nd page of yahoosearch, and 3rd page of bing. Don't forget to check out my site www.fiverrtastic.com I will be updating it again tonight or tomorrow. until next time have a Fiverrtastic day!

Voices of Fiverr



Hi Fiverrtastic Readers,
Today I want to discuss my gig I ordered awhile back from my friend and the top rated seller kiwivin. He will play your commercial during his online radio show multiple times for $5 and believe me the commercial he creates with haleylujah and oldbittygrandma is amazing! You will literally be amazed by the quality of the commercial you receive. They will place the ad on the radio show for 2 weeks and it will drive a lot of traffic to your gig or website. The radio show is from a website known as blogtalkradio and here is the direct link to their radio show. You need to check it out it is on every Sunday at 8 pm GMT. Look it up what time it is available in your area. They have been playing my ad for a month, but that's because I'm Fiverrtastic for crying out loud. Just kidding. For the first group of people that ordered they decided to run the ad for the first 6 shows or something like that...lol. Just like i'm offering a month for the first 20 orders of my website gig. Honestly, if you haven't checked these 3 out you need to they feature a new Top Rated Seller as a live guest once a week and they never seem to disappoint. I have heard a lot of cool gigs that I have checked out because of them. Vince, I hope you see this because creating this radio show was a really good idea for the 3 of you. Everyone should take advantage of this gig it's a huge deal.


Here is the radio ad that they created for me. I did a zippyshare file because at the time I didn't have the file on hand to do a multimedia presentation and wanted to get the blog written. http://www18.zippyshare.com/v/93064514/file.html. Remember to check out their radio show and go check out each of their gigs. You won't be disappointed. Next time, I will be talking about the gigs I got my mom for my birthday. These gigs are awesome one is a photo dog tag gig and the other is a caricature gig. Until next time have a Fiverrtastic day!

Lullaby and goodnight


Do you want an original gig that will be worth your money. This seller I am featuring today will compose an amazing musical piece that can be used for a special occasion, advertisement, or for a lullaby to help serenade you to sleep.The sellers username is Liongabriel and he has some really nice gigs. He's a level 2 seller here on Fiverr and he creates some amazing music. I wouldn't say he's the next Guitario because well Chris is just multifaceted. But, I would say Liongabriel is very friendly and a very nice down to earth individual. He is also a web designer by trade and he offered to work on my site. I respectfully declined right now because I'm stubborn and like to do things on my own. I  wanted to order his gig later but my click happy mouse hit his order now button. I know he will do a good job though. When he finishes with it I will blog about him again.



His gig took off thanks to social media. A few Fiverr sellers I know and myself all advertised his gig on the same day or within a few days of eachother on Facebook. Right now he has 13 orders in queue besides mine. I think musical gigs and art gigs are so amazing! I could order art and music gigs all the time if I knew what to do with them. If you're interested in ordering from an amazing seller look no further than Liongabriel. Just remember a $5 order is for a basic instrumental composition with one instrument. If you want multiple instruments it will cost as much as $30 or more. But, it is so worth it to have music done by him.

here's a video of a piece he did for another Fiverr customer.



Liongabriel I do have a few suggestions for you. You could offer web design gigs and SEO gigs. You could also offer other different music gigs as well as the chance to incorporate music with advertising some how. Like maybe offering a royalty free track you create and offer a basic intro video to advertise peoples business. $5 is just the starting platform. You could literally make lots of earnings just off customers ordering multiple gigs and your gig extras. Remember Fiverr sellers $5 is just the asking price for a gig. You can give the customers the smallest of gig offerings and they would order multiple gigs because you gave them such amazing service. I sell logos and other graphic design stuff and I offer 3 basic designs per gig. A lot of customers will order more to get faster service or a lot of elements added to the one order. Fiverr is changing rapidly and if we don't keep up we'll finish last place. Until next time don't forget to check out Liongabriel's  gig. You will not be disappointed. Don't forget that Fiverrtastic now has a website too @ www.fiverrtastic.com.  Go check it out now. I'm always trying to keep it updated and I am offering ad space for 1 month to the first 20 fiverr sellers who order. Until next time have a Fiverrtastic Day!

Omkar the logo designer



Hey Fiverrtastic Readers,
There is this seller that I know named Omkar who goes by the username nikitaroy. He will design an amazing logo for you or superimpose you into a photo with your favorite celebrity. This seller get's a lot of orders sometimes on his logo gig...currently he has 24 orders in queue. He gives a 7 day turnaround on all logo projects which is a really good lead time. I believe he shares an account with his sister, but he must have quite the workload. Check his gig out http://fiverr.com/nikitaroy/create-5-logo-for-companiesshops-and-for-websites.



Omkar, I have a few suggestions for you and maybe this will help you get even more sales. If you can design more than logos make other gigs for it. For instance, if you can design professional posters there are always people needing advertisement posters. You can use your gig extras to get people to buy revisions, more designs, or faster delivery. If you can do multimedia presentations like powerpoint and windows movie maker people love ordering that stuff. Sell it as $5 per so many slides. You can have up to 20 gigs so don't limit yourself. Ohhhh and you should increase the lead time by a day or two. I have a lead time of 10 days on my logo gig and I still can't finish multiple orders on time or until a day or two before they are due if they all start piling in. Oh lastly, if you lose your ranking as a level 2 seller again just get a hold of me. I was able to get mine back in less than 2 weeks.



I am acquainted with Omkar through Facebook and I think that he has a lot of potential. He has that fire in his belly needed to complete jobs when everything is overwhelming. He's ambitious and determined. I think that if you order from him at username nikitaroy you will be happy with the product you receive. So go check him out now! If you haven't checked out my website you need to check it out at:  www.fiverrtastic.com. If you haven't heard yet I have an advertisement on the blogtalkradio weekly radio show called Voices of Fiverr.http://www.blogtalkradio.com/vofiverr/2012/08/12/episode-3-fiverr-for-business. I will be writing about that advertising gig received from Vincent, Haley, and Jo sometime throughout the week.  Until next time have a Fiverrtastic Day everyone.

It's Peanut Butter Jelly Time



Hey Fiverrtastic Readers,
A lot has been going on in the last few weeks but I have another seller I want to discuss with all of you. This seller has a really cool animation gig. the seller goes by the username jenya007 and the gig is I will create a talking object of your choice to say anything for $5. I absolutely love this gig idea. They will literally make any object talk almost like The Annoying Orange viral videos. I think this is a very creative advertising idea for any person wanting to advertise a service for a new business. it can reach out to all demographics young and old. Seriously if you want a really cool gig I would check out jenya007. You'll be glad you did.



jenya007 I have a little advice for you from seller to seller. Create more gigs! you have so much potential so use it. tap into your video potential and experiment with doing other video gigs. if you can do animation videos i'm excited to see what types of things you can do with animated intros and green screen videos. I think you have a lot of potential here on Fiverr. I also think you should use all the gig extras your able to add. so if a level 1 is now able to add 2...make sure you add 2 to each gig. I'm excited to see what you can do within the next coming months. I want to see you become a level 2 or Top rated seller.



Check out his video he did for the peanut butter jelly time song. He wants me to give credit to mrpeanutbutter since it's his youtube channel.



Lastly, I want to speak to everyone (especially level 1 and level 2's) and tell you that if you think you can't lose your level 1 or 2 status it could happen. (Top Rated is manually added in so that's a little different). I'm a level 2 and I get tons of sales. I get at  least 20-25 or more a week sometimes on a good week. I lost my level 2 status for almost 2 weeks. I know of someone who has repeatedly lost his. If your ratings don't stay up or if you have too many cancels in a row you can lose your badge temporarily or for a long time. I'm just lucky I have a lot of regular customers who order off of me on a regular basis and refer their friends. If you ever have a situation where you lose your level, just sit back and reevaluate the situation. change your gigs by adding videos and changing the details of the gigs. when customers order ask them to order more than just a $5 gig. believe me within a few weeks you'll get your level back. It worked for me.

Until next time check out jenya007 and don't forget to go check out my website at www.fiverrtastic.com. Anyone who wants to advertise on my site I have a gig for it or If you have a good gig I may be willing to barter ad space too. Just get a hold of me on my Facebook page. Until next time have a Fiverrtastic Day! :)

Fiverrtastic is looking to expand. We need you!



Hey Fiverrtastic readers,
To all my Fiverr friends who haven't jumped on the bandwagon of adding your gig to my site yet. Or if you haven't had the chance to be featured in my blog I am offering this exclusively to you. I will trade a gig for a gig. This is the chance to be featured on my site www.fiverrtastic.com or to be featured on my blog. I say trading gigs because if I buy your gig, chances are you're going to buy mine right. (you can always order my blog gig or ad gig too) I mean think about it, I'm blogging about your services and I'm mentioning about the seller experience I had from you.  I do it all the time on here.



 If by chance we barter gigs and I feature you on my website I will still review your gig on my blog. So it's a win-win situation. For sellers who are still level 1 or level 2, it's a chance for you to get some tremendous exposure and possibly go up a level. There have been quite a few who have! For Top Rated Sellers you're getting free ad space and exposure. This is for a limited time only. I want to fill up my site and I want to get out there and meet some new faces. So if you're interested just message me on my Fiverrtastic Facebook Page. I hope to work with you all soon. This is only for a limited time only I can't do this very long. Have a Fiverrtastic Day.

A Backlinking We Will Go


Hey Fiverrtastic readers,
Ok so as you all know by now I recently started up my new .com site for Fiverrtastic. If you haven't put 2 and 2 together by now and are having trouble counting past potato it's www.fiverrtastic.com .
Yes, I want Fiverrtastic to revolutionize Fiverr to be a household name. I think everyone either can use fiverr's services or make money off Fiverr as a buyer or seller. So my site and blog are going to revolutionize the internet one backlink at a time if it kills me. I came across this Fiverr seller who will create a 6000 backlink pyramid for $5. The fiverr seller's username is portron and I had to jump on this gig as soon as i seen it. I needed some high quality and lower end backlinks that would all lead back to my website and this would do the trick. the definition of a backlink in a nutshell is "A backlink is a link coming from another website to your own. The number and quality of backlinks that your site has can affect your search engine optimization efforts, as some search engines provide significant weight to the backlinks of a site." Ya so for instance everytime I give credit to someone elses gig i'm backlinking them. Portron helped me create over 6000 backlink for fiverrtastic.com for just $5. Why not have a professional help you. I tried finding the backlinking software and believe me it's not easy. you have to jump through hoops to find good software for free. Just pay a professional. I plan on making Fiverrtastic a household blog if it kills me. I want people to know that there are people out there who are actual people on Fiverr who do sell and take the time to blog about other sellers. If you want some professional gigs for your website needs check out Portron he's a Top Rated Seller for cying out loud!



 I don't really have any suggestions for you Portron except for to maybe do more promotional advertising like getting people to blog about you, putting up a radio ad on voices of fiverr radio show, and even putting up an ad on my site would be some suggestion. I honestly think you have some really amazing skills! I will definitely be hiring you again for my blog and my graphic design site in the future. If you have a website and need help getting found in the search engines hire someone like Portron. You won't regret it. I only got a few hundred backlinks when I used the free softwares I found.

Until next blog check out Portron and check out www.fiverrtastic.com . Have a Fiverrtastic Day all.

Have a Welsh Happy Birthday


Hey Fiverrtastic Readers,
Today is another Fiverrtastic day. This next seller is an amazing Top Rated Seller by the username of Welshbloke. He has some very creative and innovative gigs that would cheer up even the meanest person. One of his gigs I really like is that he will sing Happy birthday to you in Welsh, wearing only a thong and wooly hat for $5. I absolutely love this gig. I wish there were more gigs like this! How many people do you know do their gigs on camera in just a thong and a hat? Not really too many. Just the idea alone is creative and innovative. Welshbloke is a native of North Wales and an actor by profession. He started on Fiverr out of curiosity, and his gig took off from the first day. The fact that "happy birthday to you" is sung in Welsh seems to be a big novelty attraction. He always try to over-deliver with the orders, and his customers really seem to appreciate it. Awhile ago he was featured on another Fiverr blog a top rated seller named Twistedweb123 writes. The site is yourfiverr.com. I really like this gig and I really think you should order it to cheer up a friend and wish them happy birthday. Check out an example of a  birthday video he's done below.



 Welshbloke I have some suggestions for your gigs from one seller to another. You have some amazing gigs already. I don't know how many orders you get but I imagine it's a lot sometimes. You could come up with a few other ideas like dancing gigs or cheer up/get well soon. You have a fit and photogenic body for a thong. and you're very comfortable with the camera. I imagine you could make some awesome videos. Also, I noticed your tip still has no rating. Are you promoting your tip gig to customers at the end of your gig? It's good to promote the gig extras and the tip gig. Believe me customers tip sometimes especially when a seller goes above and beyond. So promote that tip gig. Besides that I don't have any suggestions you're a top rated seller and you're doing well.

To all Fiverrtastic readers if you haven't checked out my website yet go check it out. The first 20 Fiverr sellers to buy a website promotion gig will get their ad featured for 1 month. (instead of 1 week). After that I put the gig on suspend until the month expires if needed.  Go to www.fiverrtastic.com and check out my website now. I have empty ad spaces set up right now. I am even setting up empty ad spaces on my blog. Until next blog check out Welshbloke and check out my website. Have a Fiverrtastic day everyone.

The Chin Is In!



Hey Fiverrtastic Readers,
Ok so this next seller took a hiatus for awhile and just recently came back. I promised to feature her when she came back.  she won the timeline banner contest so I'll be featuring some of her gigs in detail in a later blog. I will also be changing my facebook banner to show her chin banner she made.  She was extremely popular awhile back with a gig in which she used her chin with eyes and a drawn on nose and sometimes a wig. I am NOT talking about that mock artist Meekabe. (I take copying someones original gig very seriously). I am referring to the original chin of Fiverr, Chinelope. She caught my eye a long time ago with her brilliant videos and her amazing creativity. She will say anything like a message or testimonial using my chin as Chinelope for $5. 



But, that's not the only gig she has. She also has some really amazing stop motion gigs and she has a british voice over gig. If you want gigs for your money you should order from Chinelope. She will make an awesome creation for you. I have seen Quite a few of her creations and I have to say I am very impressed by her enthusiasm and dedication to her product. Chinelope will create something very cool and will go above and beyond what you even expected in the first place. Three days for an Estimated time of arrival for a testimonial video is pretty reasonable too. Ok, so just remember the Fiverr seller name Chinelope if you want something original from a chin. C'mon who can't use a chin video sometime or another. It would make a great birthday video or get well soon video for sure! It would also make an awesome video for a children's story. It would be way more than one gig...but it would be a cute little chin reading it! Whatever the order Chinelope would sure appreciate it. :) heres a video for her stop motion stationary and stop motion post it note gig below.




Chinelope, I honestly have no suggestions but to keep trying to advertise your services and get your name back out there. Besides that just keep coming up with different chin and stop motion gig ideas for the holidays. You will definitely get business again now that people know you're back. Meekabe will be feeling the heat now!
 Oh before I forget. I have a testimonial contest coming up as soon as the timeline banner contest ends. It will be 2 weeks long and the question is simple "Why Do You Like Fiverrtastic?" or "Why Do You Want To Be Featured On Fiverrtastic?". Just make a 15-30 second video (no longer than 30-45 seconds people have short attention spans) giving people your reasons.  Until next time readers have a Fiverrtastic day. :)

go big or go home



Hey Fiverrtastic readers,
I just want to discuss a few things. Ok the first thing on my agenda is the contest winner from the Facebook Timeline Contest. Chinelope won by a chin. It was really close though. Ok the next thing I would like to discuss is that Fiverrtastic is going to be becoming it's own website. I decided that after having over 10k views and after having over 3k Facebook fans and counting I maybe should invest a little bit more. So I decided to use my web account I have with intuit and bought up the domain fiverrtastic.com. When it's fully functional i will let you all know. I will also be selling a web advertising gig for $5 a week too. More on that when i make the gig.




I also want to vent just a little. Last week I lost my level 2 status and I've had to learn how to sell all over again it seems. But I have realized that you can convince pretty much anyone that orders a gig to order more no matter if you have a seller level or are a top rated seller. It's just harder to convince someone to buy multiple gigs one at a time when they're used to the order more than 1 feature. Needless to say, I have 10 orders in queue and 4 of them alone are from a guy who wants a logo delivered in 4 days or less. I think this marketing thing is going to be fun. Until next time have a Fiverrtastic day!
