Thanks Sam, you save my money. I was about to purchase the keyword research gig from fiver to save my time. But now i think its better to put some extra effort and do it my own. Big Thanks. The Bestest Digital Marketing Channel on YT.

THANK YOU! I was just about to ask for your videos on this very topic and you clearly stated it in the end. Amazing stuff. Please create more content like this of FIverr/Upwork etc so that we can learn from the mistakes. Will surely watch the videos and create a gig on Fiverr!!!

[@Mary-RG8]

For me I'm pretty much understand why he put laser point near me, because if I would like to purchase a product or look for a service it's necessary that need to put the word near me. So google will directly provided the company, product, or service that I wanted. But I really like this video so much because I learnt how to critcize the freelancer. Better understanding than other videos out there. It will helps us to improve more. Thank u Ahref's and team.

[@AhrefsCom]

But "laser pointer near me" is not useful for an affiliate site since Google will never rank such pages for that keyword. That's why we think it wasn't a good gig. - SQ

[@trollingfortruth5039]

I agree with the comments, this is a very cool format. Hope to see more like this. I've seen videos hire musicians from Fiver too, but this was different. I think your tutorials give me confidence that even though SEO is always evolving, I at least understand the basics.

I enjoyed watching this a lot, but you left out one thing: What should a good keyword analysis report look like, and what actionable information does it include? If I had this information, it would be very helpful since I like keyword analysis. A model report for a client would help me to understand what needs to be done and how to present the information.

[@netbusinessbro8675]

I think it is still smart enough to buy a keyword gig from Fiverr if you find the right gigs to buy. In your example you bought bad gigs, I never buy gigs under 5.0 score and at least 50 customers. Why should I pay $100 per month to use Ahrefs tools if I can hire somebody else to do that just for $10?

[@SnV100]

In the real-world situation, 99.9% of clients don't understand how difficult and time-consuming SEO is now :) They ask for 1st page, and top 1 to 5 rankings (1st @lol most cases) and are willing to pay so much less. If anyone can get top 1 to 5 ranks with a lot of smart work, time investment, and luck, why will an SEO expert work for them? SEO experts can themself work on that niche/keywords/site and make 10x to 20x :) I always transfer all SEO clients to Adwords & Social Media, who don't understand other than 1st position ;)

[@figoholidays1310]

Not being racist or anything, but most of the gigs on Fiverr are being done by Indian, Bangladeshi and Pakistani nationals who do not have experience or knowledge using paid SEO software much and working with mid to higher level projects. And also they work for less than a cup of coffee and have resulted in providing BS services in the internet. I hope channels like this may help them improve and try to get some tangible results.

I'd like to rank this video on a scale of one to ten like you ranked the Fiverr gigs. USEFULNESS - 3 - Why? Because the 3 of you sitting around judging Fiverr gigs saying how bad they are without giving any actionable details showing what YOU would do instead is not very useful. If you are going to critisize why not demonstrate what a good keyword report does look like with a model of your own? If there is one buried in those free tutorials you talked about, you should have put a link directly to that page, rather than leaving it to us to fumble around on your website looking for it. I'm sure you all are acutely aware of what your page bounce rate will look like when someone doesn't find what they are looking for. PS - I am a newbie. I know almost nothing about keyword research, SEO, or Fiverr, and I watched this video because I thought I would learn something. The only thing I learned was what bad keyword reports look like. What I do know is that when I watch a video that does not make me any more knowledgeable or entertained than before I watched it - that it was a waste of time I will never get back. AUDIO QUALITY - 4- Why? Because you have Josh with a beautiful, but kind of thick accent + background music playing, but that does not equal good sound quality. I struggled to understand what he was saying. Same for Patrick. He is sitting in a room with a horrible echo. Is it that you pretended not to hear it or you just don't really care? Try it again Ahrefs. I challenge you to remake this video with better audio and specific links to do what you think should have been done - rather than comments about "this was really bad", comments about them not asking about intent and a vague reference to "We have tutorials on our website" I actually like Ahrefs, I think it is a really valuable tool, but this video did absolutely nothing for me.
