I'm setting up my profiles for content writing.

What % or fixed fee do Fiverr & PPH take?

Anyone had any success on Fivesquid? I've created a few writing gigs, but no orders as yet.

Stay logged in as much as you can so you appear 'green' and online - that seems to help

i have most success with upwork, then PPH, Fiverr not so much

I've not managed to have much luck on PPH, yet! However I started on PPH, just over a year ago, took a few lower paid jobs in order to gain some feedback and now have a couple of long term clients from it too!

A quick update: After no orders for ages, have finally got few writing orders on Fiverr.
It's an interesting experience so far

True. How many positive feedback reviews would you suggest before I think about raising my charge?

Entirely up to you.

My one piece of advice would be to make the same offerings on Fivequid, PPH and Upwork ;)

Recently, I've suddenly become Mr. Popular on Fiverr.
Seems like everyone wants a piece o' my services lol :)
Still going well on fiverr?

Have you moved your 'gigs' over to the likes of Upwork / People Per Hour yet?

I've paused for now. Current priority is long term/content creation ideas - new blog, Tiktok, amazon kdp, print on demand, etc

Some sellers are great, others want 1,000 words of researched content for $15 (=£8 odd after fees).

Ah that's a shame, so have you taken all your gigs off Fiverr then?

Still keeping gigs active, but being selective with jobs to complete. Time is money!

This new 'Boost' option on Upwork where you can use some of your connects to get noticed more i'm sure is a right con!

I see Upwork is now offering you the chance to show you are 'Available' for work for only 6 Connects!!

I might start advertising on Fiverr or similar. I've done quite a lot of work for iWriter, but the pay is abysmal. Have also done a bit for Copify, but haven't had a bad experience, may press on though. Has anyone worked for WriterAccess or Crowd Content?
