You Can Start Earning Money Online with Just Your Writing Skills!

How would you like to offer multiple writing gig services on one platform, and get paid whatever you advertise as your fee? In case it sounds too good to be true, it's not.

Many new online writers have never heard about this website. Others may have heard the name, but they're not sure what they do. Then there are those writers who think they know what the site is about, but they really have no idea.

The fact of the matter is, the Fiverr.com website is one of the least talked about write for pay resources, and yet they provide so many opportunities for you to get paid.

I recently posted a story about the site, because I've used off it off and on for many years. Fiverr is a website that I have gotten paid as a Gig Provider; earning hundreds of dollars for selling my writing services to individual Buyers.

It's also a place where I've been a buyer myself, and paid money to other gig providers, for various services that I couldn't perform myself.

Right away, that should tell you what type of useful resource site this is. No matter what kind of service you're looking for or what kind of services you have to offer, this is the website to go to.

That brings me to why I'm writing this story. To show you examples of all the ways that a writer can earn money on Fiverr.

For instance:

On Fiverr, you're able to post a number of different ads on the website, and offer different but similar writing services. Also, each ad can strategically promote the others.

This gives you multiple ways and opportunities to be seen, and to get buyers for whatever writing services you offer.

Keep reading and I'll show you exactly what I mean, by listing 6 writing related services that you can post ads about.

Although the services you'll see listed are basically all the same, they can be marketed in such a way, that it makes it easier to gain visibility for the gigs in the Fiverr marketplace.

Examples of Ad Titles

Notice the following ad titles that you could use to advertise your writing talents on Fiverr. Although you are technically offering 6 different services, you are really only providing one service, and that is your writing.

Look over the titles before we discuss the slight variations in the services you would need to provide for each one.

Variations in your ads are needed, because Fiverr doesn't allow you to post duplicate ads, or use the same exact images to promote them.

But as I will explain, based on my previous experience with the site, these gig ad titles would all be allowed, and treated as different services.

These are 6 Services that you could offer and set your own price:

1. I will write and post a 300 word blog mention for your product
2. I will write and post a 300 word blog mention about your website
3. I will write a 300 word informative article for your website
4. I will create an engaging 500 word article for your website
5. I will write an effective seo article for your website
6. I will write a detailed 500 word press release about your business

Now let's consider why and how you would be allowed to list those services on Fiverr and earn cash with each one.

• Those who have a blog of their own can offer to write a 300 word article, mentioning the buyer's product. Your obligation for the gig would be fulfilled, when you write and post the mention on your blog, and send the Buyer a link to show them the proof.
• This second gig is basically the same as Number 1 above, except you're advertising that you will write a blog mention about a website, not a product. That is why this would be considered to be a different gig. You would simply fulfill this gig the same way; post it and send them proof.
• Offering to write a 300 word article for the Buyer's website would amount to setting a base price to write a simple 2 or 3 paragraph article that meets the word count. Your obligation would be fulfilled, by writing the article and making it available to the Buyer to post as they see fit.
• The fourth gig is the same as Number 3, however the length is a 500 word article to be provided to the Buyer, to post on their website whenever they see fit. Obviously, this is a longer article, therefore requires more attention.
• Once again, just like number 3 and 4, you'll be writing an article as web content. Because it is a 500 word article, and includes SEO, you would definitely offer this service to the Buyer at a higher rate. Keep in mind, you can only offer this particular service, if you actually have basic SEO skills.
• This final gig offer is for a 500 word press release. in actuality, you're still just writing a 500 word article, but a different writing approach is involved when writing press releases, so you must be sure you understand how a press release needs to be crafted.

Although Fiverr provides excellent opportunities for writers to make money with their writing, the playing field of selling services is a wide one. Just like with most things online, the challenge is gaining visibility, and getting eyes on whatever you're trying to do.

At Fiverr.com it's no different. You will need to be creative in the ways you promote and market your Fiverr Gigs. That's why understanding how to phrase and properly post your titles is important.

Conclusion

Now that you have an understanding about the ad posting strategy at Fiverr, you may be thinking about giving it a try. If you are, here are the steps to get you started.

Step 1 - Go to the website and sign up. Be sure to complete the brief profile set up, and complete the necessary paperwork so you'll be in a position to get paid.

Step 2 - Spend a little time looking around the website and seeing how it works, paying specific attention to the writing and writing related categories.

Step 3 - Check out multiple Gig Providers who offer article writing services and look at how their ads, as well as their titles and cover pages are constructed. Notice how the services are prices also. You will probably want to set your prices close to what similar gig providers are asking.

Step 4 - Pay attention to anything that makes one gig provider unique or stand out from the others, and think about how you can do the same.

Step 5 - Read the story I wrote titled: How to Create an Effective Fiverr Ad to Promote Your Article Writing Skills and begin creating your first ad.

Step 6 - Using the strategy that was described in this story, create additional ads, so you can have multiple chances to have your ads viewed on Fiverr.

Step 7 - Go back to Fiverr and start posting your ads. [Sometimes limitations are put on new ad posters]. If you are restricted to only posting 3 ads when you first get started, don't worry, you'll soon be able to post more, just make sure you have them ready to go.

Step 8 - Setting up basic ads with only a photo cover is fine in the beginning, but as soon as you can, create a short 30–60 second video or slideshow, to post with your ad to help get more views. It's easy, and worth taking the time.

Step 9 - Monitor your ads, and tweak and modify the titles and ad content if need be. Don't be discouraged if you don't get a sale immediately.

Step 10 - Stay positive, and keep up with your other money making writing activities (like here on Medium). It may take a while before you get a Buyer to purchase your services, but once they find you, and enjoy the services you provide, you'll begin to get more sales.

GOOD LUCK
