Web development, graphic design, writing & digital marketing are the most in-demand skills on Fiverr. And those four fields have been trending for a long period of time. Likewise, gigs under those four categories have been selling the most.
Now you can narrow it down further. For example- WordPress gigs have been sold highest under web development (Programming & Tech). Similarly, logo design & Photoshop editing gigs are selling most under graphic design. Articles/blog-posts are the super hit in the writing category. SEO and social media marketing are the top trends in the digital marketing category.
Don’t get me wrong, there are other services/gigs which have been selling very well. But those are the four main categories which sells the most.
What type of gigs you should sell on Fiverr
No matter which categories are the most in-demand, you should definitely sell those gigs which you are comfortable with. Because you should work in the field which you are most experienced. Never work in a sector which you do not love working with. Likewise, do not create a gig just for the sake of a sale.
If you found your expertise within the four categories above, that’s fine. But if your beloved skills are different than them, don’t hesitate to go for it. To clarify, you should work in the field which you love to work with. Otherwise, you may end up with unhappiness from your freelance career.

How to sell on Fiverr
Creating just a gig on Fiverr is not enough for making sales. It requires hard work to stand out from the crowd. Most of the buyers pretend to buy those gigs which already have multiple orders in the queue. However, if you are new to Fiverr and if you do not get enough inquiries from your buyer, then it’s worth improving your gig. Another way to get sales by sending proposals to buyer requests. You can send up to 10 proposals daily.
