The website is called Fiverr and it is a micro job site where you can post anything and everything that you can do. People who look for services are called buyers who look for what people offer in the Fiverr market.
There's a whole variety of services being offered. You need someone to copy paste data from a website to Word or Excel? People do that there. You need someone to do data entry, or transcription? They do that there too. From the common tasks that can be done remotely by another person for you, it's there.
Even pranks:
even doing pranks can make you earn $5 in Fiverr. |
or pretending to be someone's girlfriend:
The possibilities are endless. If you have skills and a good descriptive mind, you can come up with anything that you can do for $5. Remember, the people who would be buying your services would want to feel that it is well worth the money they spent to buy your "gigs". These are the jobs that you post on the website. Make sure that you clearly indicate what you will do for them to ensure that they would not cancel any orders in between and get a refund.
So, how does the site generate their own funds? For every gig ordered, they get $1, so in essence leaving you with $4 for each gig ordered from you. Also, to protect buyers, they give a leeway of 2 weeks for completed gigs to be credited to your account in cases of buyer disputes.
For example, on my account I have data entry, transcription and even a clash of clans related gig. So far, I've completed a total of 11 gigs so far, which paid me a total of $44. Funds can be withdrawn either via Payoneer or Paypal.
Want to try it out but don't know what gigs would net you orders? Look around the various categories. There's definitely something out there for you.
