Reading this, you’re probably wondering what the downside could possibly be.
Recently, Darren Shaw from Whitespark but the Fiverr claims to the test.
He purchased 28,000 map pins on Fiverr for a business called Shaw Electrical that he created solely to test this concept. The vendor delivered them, along with the pretty graphic, in the respectable span of three days. He also received an extensive list of the pins that had been made.
Shaw then monitored the progress of Shaw Electrical. He made no other SEO efforts at all on behalf of Shaw Electric so he could get an accurate picture of the advantages of this service.
He used Whitespark Local Rank Tracking software to gauge the business’s progress, and in three months?
Absolutely nothing.
Shaw says, “There you have it. I’ve basically saved you $50 on Fiverr. You don’t need to go and spend that money to try this thing out. Now you know.”
Shaw’s experiment proves what he suspected all along: these citation services on Fiverr are a scam. You’ll have nothing to show for your money except the fancy chart – not exactly something that can help you move to the top of local rankings.
Save your money for good, old-fashioned SEO.
