Are you a creative person who likes to design websites but are committed to your 9-5 corporate job instead? Or, do you know more than one language, such as English and Spanish? Maybe you like to write content but never gave it a shot? Well, Fiverr allows you to earn money by advertising your skills and finding buyers for them. Let’s dive into how you can start using Fiverr to launch a career as a freelancer. How Do You Make Money on Fiverr? Fiverr allows you to make “gigs” and list them on their website. A gig is your advertisement that you create, explaining what you are offering in exchange for an amount of money. People who want your services will contact you and pay you the amount you ask for. For example, as I mentioned above, if your native language is English, you can list an advertisement (a gig) for “translation from Spanish to English” or vice versa.” It’s a great way to jumpstart your freelance career, or to simply earn extra cash on the side.
