YouTube has now become a home of online videos. From educational explainer videos to meme compilations, you can always find a video to enjoy on the platform. So, it’s not surprising that this video-sharing platform is the second-largest search engine worldwide, right behind Google.

Today, at least 2.3 billion people are on YouTube to watch and upload their videos. And if you’re a YouTube creator yourself, it means that there’s a lot of competition to attract more eyeballs and build a solid subscriber base.

8 Websites Like Fiverr You Should Check Out [Alternatives]

Design, Digital Marketing

Fiverr is a great place for both business owners and freelancers. When I started my freelance writing business and struggled to get clients initially, I started a couple of writing gigs on Fiverr and made some money. I got a lot of orders, but I had to stop as back then, you could only create $5 offers. It helped me get a quick cash injection when I needed it. But it wasn’t suitable for long-term use.

I think it’s better currently as freelancers can create custom offers and set their own prices. This makes it better for both freelancers and business owners. As freelancers get to earn more and businesses can choose services based on their budget and the quality of work they’re looking for.

Still, Fiverr isn’t for everyone. It has some disadvantages. There are plenty of Fiverr alternatives that might suit you better. So, I made a list of them below…

How to Create Instagram ads that Convert

Instagram

Instagram is a great platform for marketing your business. As there are over a billion users there. But marketing yourself through organic means only can be a challenge. As more than 25 million businesses are competing with you.

This rise in competition has been coupled with a decline in organic reach. This is why if you continue to rely on organic reach or influencer marketing (as their organic reach is going down too), you won’t continue to get the same results you did years ago.

To get the most out of Instagram you need to combine organic and influencer marketing methods with ads. Ads will help you stand out from the competition and get quick results. This is why businesses spent over $20 billion on Instagram ads last year.

But in order to generate a positive ROI from Instagram advertising, you need to have a proper ad strategy in place. This includes setting up the ad itself, the landing page, and the rest of the funnel. And I am going to show you how to do this below…
