RE: 5 Reasons Steemgigs Could Disrupt Fiverr

in #steemgigs7 years ago

The only question I still have is, how will this do better than fivver's crazy low prices? Will there be a minimum price limit perhaps? or something else?

Sort:  

We are looking at the bigger picture ultimately, so even down to steemit marketing and bringing steemit to the mainstream by making steemit relatable to even non-bloggers, keeping steemian who take breaks from blogging in the action as community can still occur while they are away becos their steemgigs are up and running etc
Steemgigs allow us room to play with creativity, so no restrictions, for instance, in some cases, the reverse can even be the case, where a steemian can decide to give out his own cash for steemians to have fun, doing things they already do, like give to charity etc as seen in this post:

i believe that post will give you a clearer picture. In general, steemit allows micro payments without fees and becos of community and even friendship and good conversation, you can get ridiculously lower prices on steemit than on fiverr. There have been steemgigs where a steemian offers to do editing for as low as 1 steem for 100 words etc. They will gladly do this, when #steemgigs get popular, even testimonial posts about your #steemgigs experience can potential earn you money like a regular post does!
infact, most of the #steemgigs offered by the @steemgigs account are free. Too, remember that fiverr has fees, so 1 dollar is removed from every 5 dollars. With #steemgigs, there is also room for testimonial posts which brings in potential additional earning, adds to the beauty of steemit, accomplishes further marketing by ranking in search engines and strengthens our existing community by bring out more of our creativity, fun and revealing more of the human behind the steemian!

there are no limits, that's the beauty of Steemit. You can do whatever you can afford to do, and the person who completes the steemgig can then write about their experience, just like @fisteganos. There is freedom here, which is expansive and will grow organically.
