New Feature: Fourerr’s Q&A!

We like to keep things moving here at Fourerr, and this year we have decided to add a new Q&A (Question and Answer) feature. Rather than the carefully structured FAQs found on most sites, we have decided to introduce a more interactive platform for you to put forward and also answer one another’s questions.

Visit right now: http://www.fourerr.com/qa

faq

Have a burning question that you just haven’t got round to asking the Fourerr admin yet? Why not put it to your fellow buyers and sellers and see what kind of answers, advice and tips they can offer you!

Top 6 Reasons to Use the Q&A Feature

There are a number of reasons that you should be using this feature, including:

1) Building a Community

A site like Fourerr has so many members, and yet there will be a bit of a divide between some buyers and sellers, buyers and buyers, or sellers and sellers! The Q&A age will enable you to interact with the rest of the Fourerr community by helping each other out and creating a much stronger sense of community.

Fourerr Community

Fourerr Community – Let’s help eachother

2) Buyers and Sellers Answering Each Other’s Questions

If you struggled with getting started on Fourerr but have found your feet, you may be able to help some of the newer members that join on a daily basis. Pass on your knowledge and help out the buyers and sellers who seem a little unsure of the way things work here at Fourerr!

3) Collecting Points for Rewards

Answering and asking questions doesn’t have to just be out of the goodness of your heart! ;)

Fourerr can give you points for the amount of points that you collect and the amount of help you give to your fellow Fourerr members. And the rewards for collecting these points? Well, that’s to be decided – so watch this space!

Earn rewards by helping the Fourerr Community

4) Improving Visibility

Don’t think of the Q&A page as a redundant space that doesn’t interest you. Use it as a great tool to improve your visibility on the site. Be an active member and interact with those in the Fourerr community and help boost your online presence for all to see – you never know, you could be increasing your chances of getting more orders and earning more money this way.

5) Giving Extra Details about Gigs

If there are specific questions asked about specific gigs from the Fourerr site, then the Q&A is a great place to provide additional information. You can include links or pictures in your answer to give you further details and often providing images or URL links can be more effective than a simple two word answer!

6) Voting and Commenting

We encourage voting and commenting on our Q&A page and believe it’s a great way of drawing attention to some of the great answers that have been provided, or the important questions that a lot of people want to ask. Interact with other Fourerr members and help each other out, and you can be part of a great community.

Don’t Bother Being Mediocre – Be Simply The Best!

When it comes to selling on Fourerr, it is important to note that nobody will go for average if the best can be bought at the same price. As each and every gig is $4 on Fourerr, it’s competitive so you need to prove that your gig is the best – especially if it’s similar to any other gigs on the site.

Fourerr Mediocre

Not sure where to begin or need some help on how to be the best? Read on…

Boost Your Ratings

Delivering a great quality gig every time will mean that you can get great feedback from your buyers and become more visible to more buyers as your gig moves up in the rankings.

Buyers can filter gigs by popularity and rating:

fourerr_ratings

When your buyers rate your gig, they can leave positive reviews which will show up on your profile as little green thumbs up:

fourerr_ratings2

Get a Verified Account

A verified account says that you are a serious seller. All you need to do is fill out a small form with your name, phone number, date of birth, and address details.

You can then upload two verification documents to prove that you are who you say you are!

See “Sellers: Show them you’re serious with a Verified Account” for more details about how to do this.

Offer Express Gigs

If you offer the kind of gig that can be delivered instantly or very quickly once it has been ordered, then you can offer an Express Gig to suit your buyer. Whether you write articles, fix backlinks, sell Twitter followers or anything else, you don’t need to wait a week to deliver them – that might be what your competitors do!

Instead, offer Express Gigs so that your buyer receives his gig within 24 hours. They will love the fast service and will undoubtedly come back for more!

Feature Your Gig

Spend just $5 and get your gig featured for 30 days on the Fourerr site. This will show your gig at the top of the listings on the homepage and will show your buyers that you are willing to invest money to promote your gig.

Highlight Your Gig

Really want to stand out of the crowd then highlight your gig for 30 days. There will be only 12 gigs at any moment highlighted and therefore increasing your changes exponentially to get a number of sales. Sellers who highlight their gigs will get a huge number of views.

Fore more information see here

Add Gig Extras

Gig Extras will appear on your gig page under the title “Gig Extras! Get more than just a gig”. This is where you get the chance to offer much MORE than your competitors. For example, if you were offering to write a short eBook for $4, you might throw in Gig Extras such as extra content for $20 extra, or an eBook cover for just a few bucks more.

Adding more shows that you are one of the top people in your field, and by giving something extra to your buyers you are more likely to STAND OUT from the crowd and make more $$$!

Be Friendly!

Why be mediocre when you can be a bubbly, friendly and helpful seller? Your personality will keep your gig selling so be nice to your buyers – offer them a friendly service that they can’t get anywhere else!

In summary go the extra mile for every single order and be friendly, only this way you will no longer be Mediocre but the best.

“Why would a Buyer buying from a seller who is just Mediocre and not the best if he can get the same service at the same price elsewhere from a Top Seller. Be smart about this.”

This doesn’t apply only to your work on Fourerr but you day to day life as well. Do you have tips to become the best then share them with us here below in the Feedback area.

Sellers: Find out what your buyers want!

You will have noticed some recent changes on Fourerr and we have a feature both sellers and buyers can benefit from – our Gig Wants! A new feature that is similar to the ‘Suggestions’, you can now actively search for the types of gigs buyers want and offer up your products or services.

How to Find Gig Wants

On the homepage, scroll down past the Categories on the right hand side and under the green button that says ‘ADD GIG’, you will see the Gig Wants box:

find_bid_want

How to Use Gig Wants

There are two ways to search the Gig Wants:

Recent Wants

search_bid_wants

If you sell Facebook assistance for example you can type ‘Facebook’ into the search bar and go through the results to find jobs you can help with

search_bid_wants2

You can then click on the ‘Bid Now!’ button to offer your services to the buyer. The buyer can then accept your bid, and you can start working!

The ‘Bid Now!’ button isn’t just about money – bidding is about proving to your potential buyer that you are right for the job. Tell them about your experiences and make sure your reliability, ratings and feedback from other buyers stay positive so that you can show how good a seller you are!

As always, keep working hard to boost your ratings and use Fourerr to help you out whether you are using the site to make money, save money, develop your business or tickle your sense of humour!

Click on the Recent Wants and you will be directed to a list of gigs that buyers are searching for like this:

want_looking_for

You can either search what you’re looking for in the “I Want” box or scroll down and bid on the gigs to get earning money fast!

Wants Keyword Search

With a quick search, you can type a keyword so that you can find buyers quicker. For example, if you offer writing services, you could write ‘articles’, ‘writing’ or ‘content’ into the Search Wants box and then get the results instantly.

London 2012 – Going For Gold!

What an exciting summer of sport we are having! With some enthralling games of football during the Euros, some great grand slams at Wimbledon and now with the Olympics and Paralympics imminent, we are undoubtedly in for some great sporting achievements over the coming weeks…

Fourerr Olympic Games - London 2012

With so many athletes and sports personalities reaching the peaks of their sporting careers and reaching their goals, it got me thinking about Fourerr and how hard each of us tries to work hard and reach our goal of becoming the “ultimate freelancer”.

So what we need to do is think of our Fourerr selling experience as running in the Olympics – you can’t just go into it – a lot of preparation and effort is involved, but with hard work and determination you will soon be standing on the podium receiving your medal! Those latest features and changes on Fourerr will give you head start.

1) Ready…

Think of the first stage as your athletic training; you need to prepare yourself for your work. Fourerr is a great place to display, showcase and profit from your talents, but it is only worthwhile if you are willing to put in a bit of time creating a great profile and some gigs that others will love. Don’t make silly mistakes on your profile, and don’t assume that you won’t do well – a negative attitude has never been the key to success!

2) Set…

Treat every sale of a gig with respect – without these sales, you wouldn’t be getting anywhere. Thank the buyers that purchase your gigs – this takes literally seconds to do, and could be the difference between a buyer returning to you to make further purchases or the buyer going elsewhere. Have a look at a previous post where we highlighted 5 things you must do after receiving an order.

3) Go!

Seek out your buyers, if they are looking for a job similar to yours in the “Request Gigs” box, then offer up your services by sending them a message. Tell your friends and family about your gig on Fourerr and get your name out there as an online seller, and of course, use social networking sites to reach out to larger numbers of people. By making the effort to promote yourself, you are giving your gig a much higher chance of being noticed by a wider audience, therefore increasing your chances of making sales and really establishing yourself online as a freelancer – i.e. getting the gold!

OK, so I may have gone a little over the top with the Olympics/athletics/racing metaphors in this post, but the message is still there:

“AIM HIGH; WORK HARD; ACHIEVE”!

 Usain Bolt

And….just to put a smile on your face (why not eh?) here are some of my favourite sporting puns to really get you in the Olympics kind of mood…:

  • I used to have a fear of hurdles, but I got over it.
  • If intervening was an Olympic sport, he’d win the gold meddle.
  • Some people go into martial arts just for kicks.
  • I shouted so loud at the races, I’m now a hoarse whisperer.
  • That gymnast was always bending over backwards for people.

Exciting New Changes on Fourerr!

We at Fourerr are constantly making changes to our site to make buying and selling a much easier and more pleasant experience. Our latest changes can benefit both buyers and sellers and will ultimately make Fourerr much easier to use.

1) Instant Gigs

In order to make your gigs more streamlined, we are offering a new service called “Instant Gigs”. What this basically means is that buyers can find and buy a gig and receive it instantly. This also means that sellers don’t need to sign in to Fourerr every time they get an order. These instant access gigs are maintained and hosted by Fourerr and are ideal for the delivery of electronic goods (zip/rar files) and also require no interaction from the seller.

2) Extra Gigs

In addition to the gigs that sellers offer, you can now also include “Extras” for your gig. Sellers now have the chance to include additional items in their gigs.

For example you may offer a web content writing service. In addition, you might choose to offer an extra such as “I Will Provide a High Quality Image for $10 (extra)” or “I Will Complete your Gig in 24 hours for $5″ (extra).

It is a great opportunity for sellers to make a little extra money per gig and also gives buyers the chance to see what extras are available to them that might help enhance their purchase.

3) Multiple Gigs

Instead of just buying one order of the same gig, Multiple Gigs allow you to buy more than one at once. This is great for getting multiple images edited, more than one text document proofread, or for ordering a selection of the same gift for a special occasion.

Also…

We are introducing an enhanced version of the Ratings Bar and the Gig Statistics bar.

Ratings Bar

This means that when a buyer comes to your gig profile page, they will easily be able to see your ratings. This will include Positive Reviews, Negative Reviews and will also display the number of people who have “Liked” your gig:

This also means that buyers can narrow down the sellers they want to buy a gig from – if you have great ratings, you will be the obvious choice!

Gig Statistics Bar

When a buyer visits a seller’s profile page, they want to know about the quality of service they are going to receive, and also how long it will take for the gig to be delivered. The Gig Statistics bar will clearly show your Username, Rating, Country, Estimated Delivery Time, Gig Rating, and how many orders are in the queue:

This allows buyers to see at a quick glance whether your gig is right for them!

With these great new changes, Fourerr will be one of the easiest gig marketplaces currently online. Want to share your Fourerr experience with us?

4 Lessons I Learnt as a Fourerr Buyer

When you first join Fourerr, your first few purchases may be a little experimental – you may have joined the site with something specific in mind or you may just be getting to grips with buying on a micro job site. Whatever your reason, here are the 4 important lessons I learnt as a Fourerr buyer which might help you make the most of your Fourerr experience…

4 lessons I learns as a Fourerr Buyer

1) I Can Buy Personal or Professional Stuff

Fourerr is a great platform for outsourcing your work – whether you want icons designed for your new website, content written, or images edited, Fourerr sellers can offer this and more. But it’s not all hard work; many buyers discover the fun side of Fourerr too! Various sellers offer gigs that are fun, bizarre, or even very silly. It doesn’t all have to be about work –Fourerr is great if you want something to make you laugh or if you are looking for the perfect silly gift. You’re bound to find something you love.

2) I Can Save Loads of Money

No matter what you purchase, $4 is a very small amount (it’s 2.99 Euros or £2.49!). For a price equivalent to a Starbucks latte, you can get articles, data entry, banner ads, logos, programming assistance, or social networking advice, plus much more. For tasks you would usually pay $100 elsewhere for, you can get them for a tiny fraction of the price on Fourerr.

3) Fourerr is a Great Place to Find Long Term Contractors

If you have to spend $4 on a few gigs on Fourerr to find your ideal worker, then so be it. Look at it as an investment – even if you end up spending $20 finding your perfect contractor who delivers high quality work for cheap prices, you will have that person as a contact to do future work too. They will be grateful for the work, and you can rest assured that you will be getting good quality services every time.

4) Sometimes, Sellers Come to You!

The “Suggest Gigs” box on Fourerr is one of the most underestimated tools by Fourerr sellers. But those who know about it will know how to use it. As a buyer, all you need to do is let the Fourerr sellers out there know what you need. It can be as simple as “I need an American woman’s voice over”, and the sellers with relevant gigs and talents can send you a private message to ask about your requirements and get further details. Although searching using the categories is a great way of finding relevant gigs, advertising using the “Suggest Gigs” tool will ensure you are contacted by workers who are already keen to do the work.

If you have learnt anything else as a Buyer, how you have been able to save lots of money or how you kick started your business, then why don’t you leave a comment below here and share your wisdom with others.

Take care – Thomas

Top Five secrets for Sellers

Selling gigs can be hard if you are new to any micro-job site such as Fourerr. Quite often you can create a gig and then wonder why more people haven’t bought it. There may be a reason that you’re not making any money out of your gigs, but don’t panic. If you would like to know five great ways to get the most out of Fourerr, you have come to the right place. Here are the top five best kept secrets for making money on Fourerr; with these handy tips, you’ll be making money in no time.

Reach for your target ... with the Fourerr Top 5 Tips for sellers

1. Use an Eye-Catching title

We shall start with the most obvious thing: Making a really CLEAR yet eye-catching title. No buyer will hang around to read a wordy title that describes every tiny detail of the gig – that is what the ‘Description’ section is for.

For example if you are offering a gig where you edit people’s images to their preferred style, you do not need to say: “I will edit your photograph using Photoshop, Photoscape or Photoplus and will make it just the way you want it and then send it to you via post or as an attachment for $4”. That is extremely long-winded! Instead, shorten the title to something along the lines of: “I will Photoshop and enhance your photo for $4” – so much easier to read and if you like, you can then put details of image editing software and ways to deliver the image in the ‘Description’ part of your gig.

2. Have solid and relevant keywords

Make sure you have solid and relevant keywords – this will make it easier for buyers to find your gig. If you use the keyword ‘video’, this means that people searching for gigs offering promotional videos or tutorial videos will have your gig listed on the search results. By using other specific keywords such as ‘promotional’ or ‘music’, people searching for promotional music videos will be directed straight to your gig.

3. Be consistent, deliver high quality gigs at all times

Once you have had your first gig bought on Fourerr, don’t just assume they will all come flooding in from then on. Also, don’t assume that just because you have done one gig well and got great feedback on that, that you will always get great feedback. Good feedback is vital in keeping your gig in view of the Fourerr community. It’s all about consistency – keep standards of work high, deliver your gigs on time, be pleasant to do business with and more and more work will come to you.

4. Don’t wait for an order, get an order – use the suggestions

A little used promotional tool has tucked itself away very well on Fourerr; can you guess what it is? That’s right – it’s the ‘Suggest Gigs!’ box. Here, buyers are telling you what they are looking for. This is great if buyers are not coming to you – go to them instead and offer up your services. They will love the fact that you took the initiative to contact them.

5. Offer value for money

Once you have created a gig, you need to give it time to sit on Fourerr for a while. If nothing is happening and no one is buying your gigs, you just need to be patient and wait. However, as new gigs arrive on the site, older gigs tend to get buried. If it has been a couple of months and nothing has happened to your gig and no one has bought it, you could delete it and start again. Only do this if you have had NO response – if you have had lots of views on your gig but no buyers, perhaps you are not offering enough value for money. Rectify this and the orders should start coming in!

So there you have it Sellers – your very own top five secrets for how to use Fourerr in the most productive way.

Stay positive and happy micro-jobbing!
