What would you do for $5? Or what would you pay somebody $5 to do for you? Fiverr.com connects people who will carry out a task or service for people willing to pay 5 bucks. The price is non-negotiable and the service, called a gig, could be absolutely anything, and there are some strange sales pitches on there. It’s a great idea and $5 is a fantastic set amount.

Fiverr allows you to post tasks for $5 if there are small stuff that you need done. On the other side of the token, you can also offer your service for $5. (Although it seems to me it is a much better deal to be buyer than seller). Payments are made through Paypal with Fiverr take $1 or 20% cut. As a seller you will need to accumulate $40 (10 tasks) before you are allowed to cash out.

So what kind of tasks are there? You can have people write simple scripts for you, design headers, get tips and advices. Personally I hired someone to create a banner. I was able to have the request filled within a day, and it was a great banner! It really surprises me how much work people are willing to do for $5! So if you have a request be sure to give Fiverr a try!
