Step two: Choose the right user name

When you buy your first gig, you have to sign up for Fiverr and choose a username that can’t be changed later. The most obvious user name would be your full name. This conveys trust and authenticity. If you’re not comfortable using your full name, use your first name.


You could also opt to choose a different name that relates to your skills or the gigs that you plan to sell. For example, if you’re planning to sell design gigs and your name is Dan, you could call yourself Design Dan. However, that limits you to offer design gigs. What if you want to sell a blog post gig later? It’s better to use broader terms such as “Creative Dan” or “Online Media Dan. ”


Last but not least, don’t just browse a bunch of gigs. Actually make a few purchases, consider it a $15-$20 investment. You really want to understand the full process from choosing the gig, the buying process, the fulfillment process and the follow-up after.
