Endings and Experiments

I find it difficult to believe that Game of Thrones has ended.

Nothing to do with Fiverr, I know, but still. I was basically just waiting for it to be over, but still.

It's a strange feeling. It's been around for years, I've watched it, a lot of people I personally know watched it, and now it's over.

No, I don't hate the ending. I know that some people do, but I don't. I don't exactly like how they got to that ending, but hey, it is what it is.

And the watch has ended.

Anyway, back to Fiverr stuff. I've activated some of the old gigs, just like I said:

Video Scripts

Music Video Scripts

About Us Pages

I've had trouble with some of them in the past, enough to pause them even before the full-time job; hopefully I've learned a few things since then, and hopefully I'll be able to handle the problems if they arise again. We'll see. It's an experiment of sorts, to see what works.

Anything else?

Yes, tests!

I've been playing with tests on Fiverr. English and web content writing tests brought me high scores, as expected; the main problem with copywriting and freelance writing tests were the questions about Microsoft Word 10 features, because I don't use MS Word, I use LibreOffice Writer, plus I don't use the features mentioned in the test. Oh, and there's the fact that I'm not a copywriter, too (still, I managed to pass the test, and rank among the top 20%). I also did the SEO skill assessment test; I only know some SEO basics, and I've managed to pass. Not bad. I might do some more tests, both for fun and because displaying test results could be useful in some cases.

Definitely for fun. Having fun with your work is important!

Two New Gigs!

Where did I disappear this time?

Other than being constantly tired, I had computer problems, too, and ended up having to reinstall the OS. And that meant creating a backup first, which took me a few days, because my computer was that slow (which is why I had to reinstall the OS in the first place).

It wasn't fun, I can tell you that.

Still, it's done, it's working great with a new, freshly installed OS, and I've got not one new gig, as I've planned, but two!

The gig I've planned is for writing video scripts related to pet shelters, animal sanctuaries, wildlife rescues, and similar organizations, as well as some small businesses that support them financially. You can see it here (and, of course, I don't mind you ordering!). I love all animals, and I'd really love to help organizations that take care of them.

And the other one? Well, after creating the new gig, I've been told about a problem that pet shelters face -- writing pet blurbs -- so I've created a pet blurb for pet shelter websites gig, too!

Now, I don't expect huge demand for either one of them, but I did have requests for video scripts related to pets before, and it's not hard to understand that creating a unique blurb for each and every pet can be a bit difficult with all the other work necessary for pet shelters to survive, so, hopefully, I'll be able to do things I love, while helping organizations I appreciate.

Any other news? Yes: another freelancing account! Still, this is a blog about my Fiverr experience, so, if you want to check out what I'm doing elsewhere (the platform is British, but open to everyone), just click on that link.

And my old gigs? I plan to reactivate some of them soon (as in, in the next few days), and then we'll see how it goes.

That's it for today, see you next time!
