Introduction:
Fiverr is a global online marketplace offering tasks and services, beginning at a cost of $5 per job performed (known as a gig), from which it gets its name. The site is primarily used by freelancers who use Fiverr to offer services to customers worldwide.
Entrepreneurs and freelancers use Fiverr to offer more than 324 services categorized in 13 categories and 115 sub-categories.
Some of their services include Graphic design such as logo design, banners ads and eBook covers, services for online marketing, business, writing, video and music.
You can also do work for Fiverr yourself and you keep $4 out of $5.
PROS VS CONS:

- Quality work at affordable prices

Who is it for?
Fiverr is particularly useful for entrepreneurs and online marketers creating their own digital products and websites, but can be used by a variety of people as their services are so varied.
Tools, training and support:
There is a community blog, forum and academy with training videos, and I have seen courses online and with Udemy that teaches you how to make money with Fiverr.
There is also a help button that offers customer support.
Summary:
I have used Fiverr’s services on several occasions for eBook covers, graphics for FREE report’s, Facebook cover’s and website banner’s.
On each occasion I have been more than happy with their work.
They have saved me a lot of time, anguish and money with their quality work.
If you require some of these services, I suggest you give Fiverr a try!
Final Verdict: 9/10
To your success,

Fiverr has so many offers for just 5 dollars. You might think since it’s so cheap to get a job done at Fiverr, it’s going to be crappy. The truth of the matter is that the work that gets done by the people is usually descent quality. Can anyone else agree?
I have found the quality of work with Fiverr very good! Although I do have a job with them running a bit late at the moment, however I did expect this as I believe she is quite busy as her work is of a very high standard.
At the end of the day I guess you take the good with the bad!
Thanks for your comment 🙂
Hi John,
I’ve often been tempted to use Fiverr for whiteboard animations and graphic designs, but I always seem to back away and attempt it myself. I will definitely put it to the test sometime soon, as there is only so much that one person can do on their own.
It’s good to see that so many people have had positive experiences with them – somewhat unusual in the internet world nowadays! You say that customer service seems to be lacking. I wonder if that is a general feeling from others who have had gigs done? It’s always useful to know of bad experiences, as forewarned is forearmed!
Great article!
Thanks for your comment Rob!
I think if you have the ability to do it yourself then why not?
As for myself I am a bit graphically challenged, so I find that I can use Fiverr and get a great service, and my time is better spent on my strengths!
As for the customer service, I guess my lack of patience was in play for one of my jobs, and I certainly can’t fault the work they have done for me! 🙂
Hi John
I have used fiverr on numerous occasions, some good some not so good, it’s all about finding the right person for your needs, what might be good for me may not be so good for you, I used them to right post for my site, and once for a logo which I was pleased with. $5 is not much but then you get what you pay for. I have someone now who meets my needs so I use her most the time now and what I get is definitely worth more than $5 to me. For beginners who have a full time job and not much time to spare then it’s worth giving it a go.
I didn’t realise they had been around since 2009 though.
Thanks for this review

Yes Paula, it definitely depends on who you get.
I have used the same person a couple of times as I was very happy with their service!
Thanks for your comment!
Hey, John!
I’ve tried Fiverr out before and was very happy with the results, my online business got from just one job at a very cheap price. This is a great review of Fiverr, and people should definitely check this out because there are some very awesome services offered by people 🙂
Do you also offer any of your own services on the website, John?
Cheers. Neil
Thanks for your comment Neil!
No I don’t offer any of my services on Fiverr as I have not thought of it before… something to consider!
Hi John,
I have also used fiverr from time to time. I have always found it quite a good service and I like that you don’t pay for anything unless you are happy with it.
Some of the cheaper jobs can leave a bit to be desired, but at the end of the day, you get what you pay for. I’m sure I will be using their services again.

Thanks for your comment Kerry!
I too like the fact that you don’t pay if you are not happy! 🙂
