How to get income with fiverr I don’t make much money from writing, but one way I earn a little extra income is through helping people out with very simple tasks through the Fiverr website. Essentially you offer your services for $5 (plus a 3% handling fee), and then people bid on your service. It’s quick, easy and simple. You can also set up a profile and list your skills, so that you can keep track of what you’re offering, and you can send people things they can do. Even if you only make $5 each time you run a task, you can still make decent cash from these simple tasks. What are you most likely to make from Fiverr? If you’ve been on fiverr before and have run a task, you’ll have noticed that people often pay you more than you expected. This often surprises newcomers to fiverr, as it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking you’ll make $5 for doing a task. But the reality is that most tasks you do will pay more than you expect. If you put in your time, you can earn between $20 and $40. And some tasks can be much more than that. So, how much do you earn from Fiverr? Here’s some examples of some tasks I have run on Fiverr, along with some comments about the tasks: Task A: “Write a summary” Q: $0 A: $3 (my fee) You can check out my summary of my experience running this task at this link. Task B: “Get invoices done” Q: $0 A: $1.42 (my fee) You can check out my experience running this task at this link. Task C: “Launch a website” Q: $0 A: $1.27 (my fee) You can check out my experience running this task at this link. The fact is, when you run a task on Fiverr, you’re more than likely to be more than paid you expected. You may not make $1.27 for a task, but it’s unlikely that you’ll get much less than $1.27 either. Are tasks more valuable for people than services? Tasks are obviously more valuable to people than services, but does that mean that you should focus on doing tasks? The short answer is no. When it comes to freelancing, what you are paid is only part of what you need to pay attention to. There are plenty of tasks that you can offer and people will pay for, but the downside is that you may not make a lot of money doing these tasks. This is because in these types of tasks, people do most of the work themselves, so it’s unlikely that you can make much money. In fact, when it comes to doing something yourself, many tasks you can do are actually more valuable to you than the money you could make from them. For example, there are many tasks you can do that aren’t actually making you much money. For example, if you were to create a landing page for a website, you may make a few cents for each visitor, and this would be the lowest you could go. But if you actually have a website that you’re building for your own website, or if you have a business that you are running, then you can make lots of money. In fact, for many people this is actually their primary source of income. This is why people who run tasks get a lower payout than people who run services. I’ve explained this in more detail in this post. So, in my opinion, the $5 price for tasks is perfect. I think you should focus on doing tasks that people will pay you $5 for. The money will come eventually, but if you’re too focused on making money right away, you could end up losing out on money that you could be earning. Fiverr Fees Many people think of Fiverr fees as being pretty hefty, and they are. But in the majority of cases, it’s worth it. For example, there is a way to run a task that will earn you $1.43. However, for most of the tasks on Fiverr, the difference in pay is marginal at best. For example, if you run the same task that gets you $1.43 and another task, it’s going to earn you the same amount. When it comes to fees, the $5 fee seems quite fair, and I wouldn’t pay more than that, as it’s unlikely that you’ll make more than $5 with a task, but you may make much more than that. As an example, you could run the same task, but this time you earn $3.90 instead. I think this is a good amount to pay for a task like this, especially when compared to the $1.43 you would get for it. $5 seems like a fair price to pay for this task, especially since you’re earning $1.90 from it, even though you didn’t have to do much work at all. The last thing you want is to miss out on money when you’re charging so little. Once you reach a certain amount of money you will probably start charging people more, but you need to find out what you’re charging people in the first place. Is it worth doing $1 tasks? Do you have tasks on Fiverr that you can run and make $1.27, or would you rather do a $4 task and make $4.31? And how does that make you feel about your task work? My opinion is that doing tasks that people will pay you for is obviously the best way to make money with Fiverr, and you should make sure that you focus on doing tasks that people will pay you for. There are plenty of people who will pay $5 for a task. But there is still plenty of work that you can do for people who will pay you $4. The fact is, you need to figure out what people are willing to pay you for before you decide on what you want to offer on Fiverr, and then ensure that you offer enough of that type of work.
