I had done all that needed to be done to set up my new Fiverr gig for success: an impactful photo, a good title, the best description I could come up with… But in the first month, clicks stayed near zero. I assumed it was the algorithm. Not knowing how to resolve that, I let it be. It wasn’t. Another four weeks passed. One evening, I was scrolling on my phone, bored out of my mind. On a whim, I opened my rarely used Fiverr app and went to look at how high my gig was in the search results. And I nearly gasped from sheer horror. My mistake? The effing title was too long. It trailed off mid-sentence. On my phone screen, some crucial words were missing. If I hadn’t written that title myself, I couldn’t have told you what the gig was about. My potential clients had no insider knowledge. Since the title wasn’t shown in its entirety, it couldn’t sell in its entirety. The potential clients only saw a gig they couldn’t make sense of. So they simply scrolled to the next one. If you usually work on a PC, check how your titles appear on a phone too. They might just be cutting off your earnings.   submitted by   /u/Longjumping-Stand958 [link]   [comments]
