How to stand out, whatever you choose
- Pick a niche. "Logos for coffee shops" beats "logos for everyone".
- Show real samples. Make three examples before you publish. Our guide to building a portfolio with no clients explains how.
- Price sensibly. Use the Fiverr fee calculator to see what you'll keep after the 20% fee.
- Write a clear profile. The free bio generator helps you describe what you do.
- Reply fast and deliver early, especially on your first orders.
Gig ideas to avoid
Some gigs break Fiverr's rules or the law, and they can get your account banned:
- selling followers, likes, reviews or fake engagement
- doing students' homework or exams
- selling or "renting" accounts
- copying other people's work, images or videos
Stick to real skills that create real value. They're also the gigs that build a lasting business.
