And the exact checklist I used tobook over $100K in gigs
Fiverr can be a goldmine — or a ghost town. If you’re a creative freelancer (designer, editor, UGC creator, voiceover artist, whatever) and you’re not getting orders… there’s a good chance your profile isn’t doing you justice.
I’ve been there. I spent months wondering why I wasn’t getting any traffic. I blamed the algorithm. I blamed my pricing. I even blamed Fiverr itself.
But it wasn’t any of those things. The truth? My profile sucked.
The “Creative Curse” on Fiverr
Here’s the trap a lot of creative freelancers fall into:
“I’ll just set up a quick profile, throw up a few gigs, and if the system works, I’ll go back and polish everything later.”
Nope. Doesn’t work.
Fiverr doesn’t reward effort after you succeed — it rewards effort before. That means your profile needs to be dialled in from day one.

I’ve worked with clients across every budget level. I’ve tested dozens of profiles. I’ve now earned over $100K on Fiverr alone. And here’s what’s always true:
Client-focused copy
Client-focused copy beats creative fluff
It’s not about showing off your style — it’s about solving their problem.
Ask yourself:
Does your gig clearly explain the value for the buyer? Or is it just a list of features and adjectives?
Your optics matter
Your optics matter — a lot
Your profile picture should be high quality, friendly, and well-lit
Your gig thumbnails should stand out visually (bright colours work)
Your video (yes, you should absolutely have one) builds trust fast
fill our everything
Filling out everything gives you an edge The algorithm loves fully filled profiles. So do clients.
Fill in your: - FAQs - Gig images (all 3!) - Profile bio - Portfolio (attach a PDF!) - Gig video - Packages (with value stacks)
