By now, everybody knows about Fiverr.com. This is a site where you can offer any services you want for five dollars. The jobs are called ‘gigs,’ and there are some pretty oddball gigs out there. But anybody who does anything online can use the site to make money and build a client list.
Whenever there’s a good idea online, everybody jumps on it and makes their own version. Because of Fiverr’s success there are tons and tons of clone sites. What’s cool about these clone sites is that each one puts its own unique twist on the Fiverr concept. Here are the most popular ones.
Gigbucks – www.gigbucks.com
Gigbucks is the same basic idea except that you can offer gigs from five to fifty dollars. As you might imagine, the gigs on the lower end of the scale get more buyers.
Zeerk – www.zeerk.com
Zeerk gives you even more flexibility. You can sell gigs for multiples of five up to twenty-five, and then multiples of twenty-five over that. As you know if you’ve used Fiverr, they take one of those five dollars out of every gig. With Zeerk, you pay a lower commission for jobs over five bucks.
Now, before you go and sign up to all of these sites, there are some things to keep in mind. Fiverr is the undisputed king of the heap. You’re not likely to make a ton more money with any of these sites individually. But if you have a service to offer, offering it on Fiverr clones gets it in front of more people.
I recommend signing up for as many clone sites as possible and just seeing where you get work. You might end up doing well on some of the smaller sites where there’s less competition and more flexibility. You can find good clients anywhere.
To your success
