Best practices for creating your Fiverr profession

Creating your profession

By showcasing your skills and experience, you increase your visibility to clients searching for skills rather than services and seeking tailored approaches that offer more flexibility than off-the-shelf Gigs. Add a profession that perfectly represents your distinct credentials to make it easier for the right clients to discover and connect with you.

Creating your profession

Step 1: Add your profession

In order to help potential clients determine if you’re the right fit for their needs, it’s important to select the profession that most accurately represents what you do best. Reflect on your strongest skills and the types of projects you excel at to make an informed choice.


*Freelancers can have a maximum of 3 active professions.

Additional things to note:

We want to ensure you appear in the most relevant buyer search results—both broad and specific. To help with this, you can select additional specialized titles for your profession at the bottom of Step 1 under "Which other titles match your profession?". These suggested titles are based on the services, skills, and expertise you choose for your profession.


For example, if your profession is "software developer" and you add "Python" as a skill, "Python Developer" will appear as an additional title option. If selected, buyers searching for "Python" will see your listing as "Python Developer," matching their specific needs.
