Uses for Fiverr?

[ChrisHolgate]

Hi,
I'll keep this really short and sweet... I'm just intrigued more than anything.

With the exception of user testing has anybody ever had a good experience with Fiverr? Obviously I'm not  contemplating SEO services for $5 but I'm just curious as to whether anybody has found any services that were genuinely useful in a day to day capacity?

I also curious about this. The only time I turned to Fiverr I was looking for some FB Ads coupons (a couple of blog post mentioned it was a reliable source for this) but couldn't find any seller.

I have been a heavy user of Fiverr now for a few years - there are tons of great odd-jobs that can be handled by someone over Fiverr...

1. Converting images from raster-to-vector when you need a better copy of a logo
2. Cropping, rotating, and cleaning up a large number of images to a uniform size and style
3. Posting and formatting a large number of Word Document content to your blog.

Basically, the next time you think... "this is going to take a lot of time and could be done by someone w/o my expertise", try Fiverr.

Hi,

i have found fiverr useful for Speed Optimization and some media related stuff.

Don't use Fiver for "30 High PR Backlinks" kind of gigs.

I always use Fiver for voice overs, content re-writing and some small graphics projects.

Good luck!

Cheers all for your feedback.

Umar, please don't worry, I wouldn't touch links or traffic generated by the likes of Fiverr with a ten foot barge pole!

There was a good YouMoz post a couple of years ago with ideas for this, too.

Hi Umar,

Thanks for this I think you just answered my confusion about fiverr backlinks, I read a recent article of someone suggesting to buy fiverr backlinks which raised red flags for me.
