Such a concrete example and so insightful. Id love to see more on what you can do as a translator or other type of freelancer on these types of platforms, and if there are any more tips&tricks to follow for success on these sites!
Thanks so much for the positive comment 🙂 will make more videos on the topic for sure
Hi there, I am interested in freelance translations while I finish my studies. I am south African so my home Language is English and I am studying medicine in Argentina so my Spanish is pretty good. I don’t have a translators degree or title but would like to know if on fiverr someone like me can use fiverr as a means of an income or is it exclusively for professional translators?
Hi Constanza! Thanks for your comment. You can most definitely do that. Especially as a med student you have a very nice niche to work in. Just market yourself as a Spanish-English medical translator, those are in very high demand 🙂 good luck
-The lady who asked if she needs to order, it is because a seller can also make a custom offer and send it to the buyer and the buyer just accepts …
-Fiverr takes 20% of every order you get. And it adds 20% to the buyer… If the price of the order is $5, you’ll get $4 and the buyer will pay $6
Thank you for the videos you are making, they are beneficial. New subscriber 😄
This was very informative and helpful. To put the prices into perspective though, where I live there are MANY digital nomad types doing this sort of work where rent is about 300 euro a month and other costs are trivial. I imagine setting low prices might seem like a race to the bottom for those living in developed countries, but for those of us who have chosen cheap tropical paradises it means a guaranteed comfortable standard of living.
Hi Thomas, yes, absolutely, location matters a lot. Still though, people tend to be happy and settle for very little money just because “they don’t need more where they live”. In my opinion, this shouldn’t be the goal of a professional career. By saying this, you basically allow the client to dump prices which harms the whole market. What’s wrong with charging more even than you actually need 😉 It’s not only a race to the bottom for people in developed countries, if we all keep a nice standard and don’t work for peanuts, we all live better.
Hi Adrian, this is a very helpful and informative video, thank you so much.
Thanks Henry!
Thanks for the video mate! loved the information and really appreciated your perspective
Glad you enjoyed it!
This website should have the option to report sellers for devaluating jobs.
I wanted to try background removal, usually prices start in $5 US dollars for 15-20 images. Today I saw someone offering 100 images for the same low price and he’s got more than a thousand votes. Idiots like that ruin it for everyone else. Also, they’re giving away their time for such a low price
🙁
These are people that normally have a very devalued coin like Venezuela or India and yeah it ruins it definitely for people like us that earn in dollars (I’m from Ecuador) and besides my country is a third world country imagine when people want to pay me $5 (and the 20% discount for each Fiverr sales ruins it even more so $4) Horrible in every way! But I made my way to the top and I’m a level two seller now! n.n and I charge very nice amounts for my knowledge
@Joel The Alien how did you even started? I’ve been there for a while but I don’t get any clients
@ScarletDragon start by sending lots of buyer’s request offers you have a limit of 10 each day.
I’ve done 5000 so far (in 2 years) and make the gig impressions on your landing page exceptional
Great advice!
It would be absolutely amazing if you make a video about the different types of files a translator faces and how to deal with them and the types of files that need CAT tools for example.
sure, I’ll add it to the list 🙂
thanks very much for this video…this was so practical and to the point😄
🙌🏆
Can you do a video about translation courses online, like if someone is interested in learning translation by taking (free) classes about it online, trying that and giving us your opinion 😊
Yes thats planned for this year for sure 🙂 it will just take time to make a comprehensive video on that. Stay tuned 🙂
Wow! Thanks for sharing. I signed up and wasn’t sure what to do but you clarify many of my questions.👍
Thank you for this video is really helpful, but I have some questions about when I have a work like translation how can I do this work or subliting on YouTube can you show us some examples when you doing any work I really need to know.
Hi Adrian! I love your videos, they are so insightful and you are so open and honest, which I highly appreciate. Can you do another video like this for Motawork, too? Thank you.
Hi Sardalf, thanks so much for becoming a member. I appreciate it alot! yes, Motaword is on the list 🙂
Hi Adrian, I discovered your channel when looking for resources for freelance translators on Youtube. I’ve watched a few and they are very helpful! For people like me, who just started out in the field and still have a lot to learn, your channel almost covers every aspect of the job, with knowledgeable insights, tips and best of all, your videos are quick to the point, so I don’t feel overwhelmed by information and the steps are easy to follow. So I just want to say a Big thank you for you spending valuable time building a valuable information/resource hub for translators around the world. If I ask you questions here, would you be able to email me the answer, or everything will be seen as public comments? Again thank you, I’ve subscribed and will check out more of your videos!
Hi Helen, thanks so much for the kind words💙 if you want to ask private things, it’s better to reach out directly on LinkedIn.
I just setup my profile today. Glad that I found your video. You made the whole process seemed less stressful and I am ready to further edit my gig display photo and then it will be ready to go!
Great to hear!! How has it been going?
@Freelanceverse – Adrian Probst I haven’t got much luck yet for the translation gig. But I received messages for my other gig fairly quickly. I will take it easy:)
Excellent job bro, I really like the way you described everything. That’s really helpful.
Thanks!
Thanks for the video, mate. I’ve just set up my own translation service too on there and your video helped me a lot. Anyway, how is payment done? I dont remember needing to sort out a payment method during registration. Do you need to PayPal for it or something?
Could you please make a video about failures during online test for call center operators. I really frustrated that wasn’t able to pass it(((
I’m so happy to have come across your channel! I have decided to embark on this path and want to start translating from English to Spanish and vise-versa and from Italian and French to either English or Spanish. So I think I will actually do what you invite us to do: to translate your video for practice! Thank you 🙂
