The Best of Fiverr is a wonderful accompaniment to the Fiverr site. Fiverr is an amazing site in itself but there is no question that, like any other site that offers products and services, you have to sort through the riff-raff to find the top notch “sellers.” This is where a site like The Best of Fiverr comes in as not only handy but necessary.
While Fiverr allows the buyers to rate the sellers with a positive or negative experience and make comments on the work of the seller, it isn’t always enough to know what you’re getting. For instance, if the seller is someone who’s fairly new and hasn’t had too many sales, they may not have a listing that hits the top of the searches for the services they are offering. A site like The Best of Fiverr finds these needles in a haystack and gives you honest reviews and details on the service or product provided. If they have issues they explain the issues thoroughly and completely, even giving the benefit of doubt to the seller if need be. They also highlight everything from the strange to the typical sellers on Fiverr, giving you a good mix of what’s available.
The site is an amazing resource to find exactly what you are looking for and knowing that the person you are “hiring” via Fiverr is going to provide you with the service you’ve hired them for. There’s nothing worse than expecting something from a service, no matter what the price is, and either being ripped off completely or being given worthless work that you can’t even use. The same goes for a product purchase. If you purchase something, even if it’s only a $5 item, plus shipping, you are purchasing the item for a reason. Perhaps you’re getting a unique gift for someone or perhaps it’s just a small token of appreciation for a friend; but in either case you want the item to at least represent itself honestly.
To many people $5 isn’t a lot of money, but to others it can be substantial. Remembering that this site deals with people from all areas of the world, what $5 buys one person in America may not be even close to what $5 can buy someone in a third world country. This is especially true when paying for services. If spending $5 is a huge investment for a person in a small, poor country it could break the person if they end up not getting the services they’ve paid for or if they get poor services. A perfect example of this is a recent editing I provided for a young man in a war torn country. The document he had me proof wasn’t a book or a term paper, it was a matter of life or death for both himself and his mother. He wanted to be sure that the letter he was sending to a college for entry and sponsorship for both himself and his mother was of the highest quality. He spent $5, which may or may not have been a lot of money to him, but the end result of what he got was priceless. Perhaps all transactions are not this important but to the individuals involved they may seem it. The Best of Fiverr helps you feel more confident with the person you are utilizing for their services and products.
I honestly think The Best of Fiverr is one of the best sites around to help sort out the good from the bad on a site that has seen an amazing surge in growth. Instead of spending hours searching and reading comments, you can quickly see who they recommend and who they don’t. You can find everything from the strange to the “normal” and mainstream services and products offered by sellers on Fiverr and do so knowing what you are probably going to get based on the work and effort of the founders of The Best of Fiverr. Kudos to a very well thought out and put together site. I hope it stays around as long as Fiverr and sees the growth that Fiverr sees.
So next time you’re thinking of placing that order from the guy offering to sing “Happy Birthday in Japanese” to your loved one, check out the site and see if The Best of Fiverr says he’s really singing gibberish in hopes that you are clueless or if he’s authentic! Now if we could just talk them into creating “The Best of E-Bay” maybe we won’t see so many rip-offs on that site! It’s just a suggestion.
