2. After you successfully activate your Fiverr account you can edit your profile. Hover over your username and click DASHBOARD.

In your dashboard you can see your TASKS. There you'll also see your orders when someone buys something from you. But first edit your profile. Hover over your first task and click UPDATE NOW.

On the page that opens upload your picture and then write something about yourself. As you write this think about what you can sell. What are you good at?


You don't need to worry about "ONLINE STATUS" right now. But do add languages to "I CAN COMMUNICATE IN" option. You can also fill out other settings (circled on the image above). Don't forget to SAVE CHANGES after you're done.

Now you are ready to add your first GIG (a GIG is something you are selling. Example: one logo is one gig that you sell for $5-$500).

I had a hard time when I was joining Fiverr because I didn't found the information how to create a gig, that's why I decided to create new training here.
Hope it will help some people and I hope I did it correctly since it's my first training.

Ursulla, your training's highly interesting!
If a person wants to make money blogging, for example, can referances be given, so the customer can evaluate the quality before the buying decision?

It's recommended that sellers show their work so that buyers know what to expect.
Sometimes buyers if they want something in a larger quantity (more logos, longer translations ...) buy one gig, to see the quality before ordering all that they want.
If you sell your writing skills you can link to your work on your profile or add it like a pdf file (like it's shown in the tutorial) to the gig.
I hope I answered your question.

I created my Fiverr account just to see what's all about (I had a hard time figuring out how to add new gig, that's why I created this training). I was really surprised when I received the first order in one week. You have nothing to lose, so why not. :)
