Last Updated on March 13, 2023 by Tumto Siram

If you're someone that just joined the Fiverr affiliate program but is stuck on how to get started with it and confused about how to promote your links, then this is the post you might want to read.

In this post, I am going to show you how to use the Fiverr affiliate links and other promotional tools provided by Fiverr including tips on how and where to promote your Fiverr affiliate links.

Fiverr Affiliate Program: An Overview

Unlike most products and services that let other third-party affiliate networks manage their affiliate programs, Fiverr has an in-house affiliate program.

And to be honest, they have managed it well by providing amazing tools that their affiliates can use to make the most of their affiliate promotions.

I have been a part of other companies that have personalized affiliate dashboards and promotional materials unique to their own for their affiliate programs.

But only a few of them have the kind of facility that gives their affiliate a wide range of unique promotional materials and the freedom to tweak those materials according to their campaign needs.

The Fiverr affiliate program is one of those!

And talking about the promotional tools, they have different types of promotional tools in general that an affiliate can use for their campaign and promotion. You can skip directly to the how to promote section here.

Let's look at their types and how to use them.

How to use the Fiverr affiliate links and promotional tools? And their types

To make it organized and understandable I will divide them into two types according to their formats and further subdivide them.

Visual tools

The first type of tools that you can use in your promotion as a Fiverr affiliate is the promotional tools that you can embed in your website pages and blog articles including your website's widget area.

I call them the visual ones because they are directly visible to your audience as images, videos and the search bar itself.

Banners and videos

The first promotional tools that you can use on your website are banners and videos. They come in various sizes and types.

To grab them, go to the all marketing tools tab under the marketing tools option on the left side of your Fiverr affiliate dashboard.

In there you can filter the banner type by various options like the brand type, filter type, language, creative and also filtering size.

The most useful ones that I use are the:

Filter by brand

Click the button and the dropdown will show you the brands available. You just have to choose the one that you want to use according to the content in your blog post.

For example, I have selected the Fiverr sub-affiliate.

Filter by type

Then head over to the filter by type and the dropdown will show you the options available. In this case, the options available are video and JPEG.

• I will select the JPEG option.
• And you can filter it further if you want the banner in a different language and a different size.
• Then click the show creative button. And the result I get here is shown in the image given below.

Now all you have to do is click the Get Html code button, then copy the Html code and embed it in your website or your blog post.

The image below is an example of how it appears:

I have mentioned the other two promotional materials in short in one of my previous posts where I talked about navigating the Fiverr affiliate dashboard.

However, let's do it again with some simple explanations of how to use it in the most effective way.

Gig Ads Widget for promotion

The gig ads widget is a widget that you can embed in your website showcasing directly the Fiverr gig you want to show to your website visitor.

• Just click the Gig ads widget in the left menu tab of your Fiverr affiliate dashboard in the dropdown under the marketing tools section.
• From the main window that appears in the dashboard, you can filter the category, then enter the relevant keyword and the price range that you want the gig in and click the apply filter button.
• And after the gig window appears click the green coloured “Embed code” button on the top right-hand side of your dashboard, then copy the Html code and paste it into your blog post or your website's widget area where you want the gig bar to appear.

The best place to show this widget on your website would be in your blog post and the gig should be according to the topic you are sharing in your blog.

For example, if it's about WordPress, filter the gig in the widget for WordPress website designers or developers.

The other option will be to embed the widget in the sidebar of your website, it would be better if you mostly promote the services from Fiverr on your website.

Below is an example of the advertisement how the gig ads widget will appear:

Search Box Widget for promotion.

The search box widget is somewhat similar to the gig ads widget but it doesn't directly show the gigs, instead, it appears as a search bar and allows your visitor to directly search for freelance services they are looking for.

• To use the widget, go to the search box widget in the left menu again and click it.
• From the main window, you can choose your commission type whether it would be CPA or Hybrid. I have explained the commission type in my review about the Fiverr affiliate program before.
• You can also choose the language you want to display in the search bar. It has got an option of seven languages to choose from.

Now type the keyword related to your blog or campaign in the “Edit the search box text” section, or you can type it right inside the search box widget itself.

As an example, I have used the word Try “Landing Page“.

After that it's the same, simply click the “Embed code” button, get the Html code and embed it in your website.

Below is an example of how this ad widget will appear:

Now let's head forward to the links, their various types and how to use them effectively while also tracking them.

Link tools – Fiverr affiliate link (how to use them)

When it comes to the types of links Fiverr offers inside their dashboard, you will find two types of links that you can use. Which are the default link and the other on the deep link.

First, let's talk about the default link.

Fiverr affiliate default links

The Fiverr affiliate provides 6(six) types of default links that you can use in your promotion and marketing.

1. Fiverr CPA.
2. Fiverr Hybrid.
3. AndCo.
4. Fiverr Learn.
5. Fiverr Business and;
6. Fiverr Sub Affiliates.

These links take your visitor directly to the main service pages of Fiverr according to the service mentioned. Except for Fiverr CPA and Fiverr hybrid.

Both these links Fiverr CPA and Fiverr hybrid take your referral to the main marketplace of Fiverr, only the type of commission differs here in case the referred visitor of your website converts to a customer.

You can learn more about the commission type and the different types of services the Fiverr affiliate program offers in my previous post.

Fiverr affiliate deep links and tracking

Deep linking is one of the most important aspects of affiliate marketing, as it leads your visitors to the specific page you want them to land in.

And Fiverr affiliate offers one of the easiest ways to create your deep link.

The other important option that you can use while promoting your Fiverr affiliate link is by using the “track the link” option for specific campaigns.

How to create deep links and track them on Fiverr?

Once again you will have to head over to the marketing tools section and select the default and deep links from the dropdown.

• Now click the LP URL dropdown button on the top right side of the main window of the dashboard.
• Copy the link of the page you want your visitors to land on and paste it into the LP URL dropdown box.

• After that, you can add the tracking IDs in the “Dynamic parameters section” situated just beside the LP URL button.
• From the dropdown menu of the “Dynamic Parameters section”, you can create different AFP (affiliate parameter) to understand the clicks you generate from your different links.
• Below the AFP you will find the Tracking code option. You can use this option to know the source of the traffic of your link clicks.

Most of the time this helps in different campaigns. In my case, I will enter the identification for this blog post.

After adding all the parameters, your link will be ready. It will be longer than the default links.

But you can easily shorten it by selecting the Shorten URL option situated on the left-hand side of the main window of the Fiverr affiliate dashboard.

You can see the URL has been shortened after I selected the option below:

This is how you can easily create deep links and add tracking codes for your links in your Fiverr affiliate dashboard.

Now that you know how to use the various marketing tools you can find in the Fiverr affiliate dashboard, let's have a look at how to promote our affiliate links or the services Fiverr offer.
