FREELANCING II

     I mentioned awhile back that I was exploring Fiverr.  It has been almost 2 weeks since I started posting gigs on the site, so time for an update.

What is Fiverr??

     Fiverr is a job listing site where you can post jobs you are willing and able to do with a price point starting at $5.  On the surface it looks like a good place to begin a freelance business, offering small tasks to get you in the door.  As a beginner. you will be limited to the entry level postings and no extras till you prove yourself.  As of now I am still a newbie so can only post $5 gigs with no extras.  I have 8 Listings at the moment and in the 13 days I have been on the site I have accumulated some 2600 pagevies.  Most of those have come from my own promotional efforts as I have had mostly low clicks from impressions on the Fiverr site.  For all those page views I have had only 2 potential buyers ask questions and have 1 "pending" sale but the buyer has not provided the info for me to complete the job.  

     So I am still waiting to see if Fiverr is a good fit for me.  If you have had success on Fiverr let me know.  I look forward to hearing from you.
