What is Fiverr?

But also even though you had a skill or skills, it's not a guarantee that you'll make lots of money on the platform because some niches are supersaturated and the competition is stiff.
For instance, there are about 125,000 gigs on logo creation alone on Fiverr. This means that if you're setting up a logo creation gig on Fiverr, you're up against 125,000 other people who are offering the same service, and these people are already ahead of you in the game. So, depending on your skill, it might be really hard to climb up the ladder and gain recognition on the platform.
But in this guide, I'll walk you through 6 gigs that are not yet saturated which you can set up, and start making sales as soon as possible. These gigs have high demands and very few people are offering them at the moment. So this will be an opportunity for you to jump right in and start making money with what I'll be showing you. But before that it's good to know how the platform works.
How do Fiverr works?
Before setting up an account, it's important to understand how the platform works. Let's assume you're a buyer on the platform and you want a freelancer to create a logo for you.
If the seller charges you $5 for the logo, Fiverr will take 20% of the money and the remaining 80% will be paid to the seller after the job is completed and both parties are satisfied. In this case, you'll pay $2 to Fiverr before the freelancer even starts creating your logo. And after successful completion of the job, you'll pay the remaining $3 to the seller. So in summary, Fiverr takes 20% of any transaction on the platform.
How to get started on Fiverr
Setting up a Fiverr seller account isn't as easy as it sounds because of the processes involved. But I'll walk you through all the processes involved to set up your Fiverr account.
NOTE: There are two main types of accounts set up on Fiverr
a) the buyer account ( if you want to hire freelancers) and the
b) the seller account( if you're a freelancer)
The Fiverr management team requires every user to, first, set up a buyer account before proceeding to the next one. To set up a buyer account, head over to Fiverr.com and click on the join button at the top right corner of the page.
You'll be redirected to a page where you can sign up to the platform either through your Google account, Facebook, or Gmail address.
I recommend you join through your email address because it's more secured and you can easily recover your account if you lose or forgets your password.
After providing your email address on the designated box, the next step is to provide a strong username and password for your account. Think of a username as a nickname. It Should be something related to your real name or brand. In any case, you should be creative with it.
Also, the password is very vital for your account security. A combination of uppercase, lower case, numbers, and special characters makes up a strong password. For instance, if your name is James, your password can be something like 591jAme$.
Ensure you use a password that you'll easily remember but is difficult for others to guess. After that, click on the join button to complete your registration. At this point, Fiverr will send you a verification email. Check your mailbox and click on the activation link to activate your buyer account.
If you've done the above procedures correctly, your buyer account should be up and running. To check this, head over to the Fiverr website again and log in with your username and password.
Next, create a seller account by clicking on the BECOME A SELLER tab at the top right corner of the page.

Making video subtitles is a skill that is very much in high demand but very few people are aware of it. If you don't know what video subtitles are, I'll explain in a way that even a 6-month-old baby can understand.
Think about video subtitles as a caption for any video. You've probably watched movies and along the way, as the artists or characters are talking, you see the same words displayed on the screen, that's what we call video subtitles.
Now, a lot of people are looking for these services every day and that's exactly what I want to show you so that you can start it immediately and make money even though you don't have skills.
Assuming you set up a Fiverr Gig on video subtitles or transcription, clients will present to you a sample of their videos and request that you produce a subtitle along with the video. All you need to do Is to go to this website called Zubtitle.com and create an account with your email and password. After that, click on the UPLOAD A VIDEO button and simply upload the client's video here and then this tool will automatically access and produce the subtitle or caption for the video.

3) providing an in-depth SEO report for Websites or blogs.
If you go to Fiverr and search for SEO as an example you will find a lot of people offering a lot of SEO services and some of them just concentrate on offering an in-depth SEO report about a website or blog to show the owners what's wrong in their websites and help them rank on search engines.
what is SEO?
SEO stands for search engine optimization. It's a technique to optimize your website so you can rank on Google or any search engine and get free organic traffic from search engines.
so how can you provide an in-depth SEO report of any website if you don't have any knowledge of it? Simply go to seoanalyser.com and enter the client's website on the search bar provided.
Next, click on the review icon and this tool will automatically analyze the website and give you an in-depth detailed report about everything wrong in the website so that the owner can get help in optimizing his website and rank higher on search engines like Google.
After the report is generated, just click on the download report and it will download a pdf version of the report and send it to the client or customer who requested it.
4) typing documents
A lot of people go to Fiverr every day to look for freelancers who can do typing jobs for them. Sometimes they may require the freelancer to type a document as long as 30 pages.
In my opinion, this is a great opportunity for you to grasp. You don't have to type the document yourself or have any typing skills. All you need to do is to find a document tool like Google docs. Head over to Googledoc.com and you'll see a page that looks like the one below.
Simply click on the blank page icon and it will open a word processing interface for you. Simply click on the tools icon at the top of the page and select voice typing from the drop-down menu. This is a small icon that looks like a microphone
All you need to do is read the document that your client gave you to type and as you're reading, it will start writing automatically. After reading the entire document, simply download it and submit it back to your client and you'll be paid. This is how to make money on Fiverr simply by typing documents.
5) commenting on blogs and websites
Do you know there are a lot of people who are looking for people they can pay to comment on their blog posts?
For instance, if you go to Fiverr and search for blog comments, you'll see a lot of people who are offering the same service for money, so why not join them and do the same?
You might ask; why will anyone pay me to make comments on his blog posts? Well, the idea here is to help the blog or website owner to increase his/ her domain authority and get more backlinks to their site.
So it's somehow an SEO service and it's a win-win thing for both of you in the sense that your comments will attract more backlinks for your customers and increase their rankings on search engines while you get paid in return for your service.
NOTE: To do this effectively, you need to have more than one Google account so that your comments will not look spammy.
