horpeyemmi66:
Hi, I believe Smartmed is reasoning from the angle of the ease of getting out of the country. It's relatively easier to leave Nigeria as a Medical Doctor than as a Dental Surgeon. This is perhaps the reason why he considers switching not necessarily because of a perceived dichotomy.
There's actually a huge difference in the cost of exams as a summarized below: Medical Doctor PLAB 1: £237
PLAB 2: £875
Total: £1,112 (N530,320) ; as compared with
Dentist/Dental Surgeon ORE 1/ LDS 1: £806/ £850
ORE 2/ LDS 2: £2,929/ £2, 940
Total: £3,735 (N 1,781,250)/ £3,790 (N1,804, 480)
Where £1= N476.907
Another thing, venue for the exams. PLAB1 can be written in Nigeria (Lagos, Abuja and Enugu) and even Ghana (if you don't get a seat in Nigeria or register late). PLAB2 is written at Manchester, United Kingdom.
For ORE1, the exam's venue is the King's College, London. While ORE2 is written at the Eastman's Dental Institute, the Dental School affiliated to the University College London. Both parts of the LDS exams are written in London.
However submissions made by you and Aquilapriscilla were very pertinent.
PS: Fees covering Tickets, Visas, Hotel Bookings, Yellow fever card, NARIC statements etc were not considered. |

xactcore: 10 tips that can make you earn more on fiverr
Unfortunately, there is no magic to being successful on Fiverr and I can’t guarantee anything but it is possible to earn up to $500 or more on fiverr per month with just 4 hours of work daily this method has made people rich on Fiverr. Here are the 10 most important things that you can practices to get more sales:
1. Your profile picture is very important People on Fiverr like to hire someone that they can relate to. I had a picture of my 18 years old face as my profile picture for a few weeks and it was fine but I decided to start testing different pictures. I found an image of a friendly looking male and female on the internet and used that as my profile picture and my sales jumped almost immediately. People want to feel like they are hiring someone trustworthy. Some of you might think this is unethical but I don’t see any issue with it. I am simply playing on human tendencies to trust a kind and friendly looking face. Marketing companies do this all the time.
2. Having an animated video explaining your gig This technique has conversion rate of about 20% better than using an image. The good thing about Fiverr is that anything you need to improve your gig is probably sold by someone else on Fiverr for a few bucks. And trust me, it’s worth the investment. I paid someone on Fiverr $25 to make a quick 30 second video and paid someone else $10 to do a voice-over for it. The video was simple and to the point and I noticed my conversion rate moved from 1.43%to 6% in 3 days.
3. CAPITALIZE one word that you want to draw attention to. It’s important to highlight a keyword in your title so you can draw user’s attention to the purpose of your gig. This will allow people to glance at your title and immediately understand what you’re selling. Fiverr allows you to capitalize one word in your title so you should make sure you’re using this tool and use it effectively. “I will design a LOGO in my style” vs. “I will design a logo in my style” see the difference?
4. Test different categories for your gig and measure which one converts best. I tried a few different categories before landing on the one that had the least competition and ranked my gig the best in the search results. The category that might seem best fitting doesn’t always drive the most traffic. Try to avoid the “other” category if possible.
5. Highlight, bold, italics. All of these things will draw attention to certain words and make your gig description much easier to read and understand. Don’t just write plain text. Try to keep your gig description short, sweet and to the point. Keep in mind that most people won’t read the description, especially if you have big blocks of text. Break it down into small chunks and use bullet points wherever you can. It’s important that you let people know in your description to contact you if they don’t see what they’re looking for. This will help prevent order cancellations which reflect negatively on your seller profile.
6. Communication is Key Write formally whenever speaking with a customer and be overly nice. People appreciate professionalism and good customer service. There’s no reason for typos, long response times or improperly formatted messages. Here’s a basic example: Hi (customer’s username), Thank you for reaching out to me! I will be happy to (what they contacted you about)! ![smiley](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/smiley.png) Do you have any examples of what you’d like or specifications about? the project? (If you have enough information already, SEND AN OFFER!) Best, (Your Name) (Your Username)
7. Test your pricing Don’t assume anything when it comes to pricing or what your customers will pay. It’s always important to test different price points until you find a sweet spot. I noticed that when I raised my prices I had fewer customers but I was making more money. I also tested different pricing structures like the threetier pricing or having a base price with gig extras. I personally found that three tiers make it easier for customers to understand the value. If your product can be broken down, try offering three different options using the good, better and best pricing model. This will allow you to provide a service for every budget. If you’re new to Fiverr, I’d recommend over delivering in value until you achieve level 1 seller status. This means pricing your service cheaper than other listings so people will feel more comfortable choosing you over an established seller. If you do this, you will make your money back tenfold in the future.
8. Show a lot of examples and use good pictures. Buyers like to see examples of other work that you’ve done so make sure you provide as many examples as possible. Make your pictures pop! Consider paying someone on Fiverr to create eye-catching images for your gig.
9. Sell a commercial license as a gig extra. An easy way to make extra money is to sell a “commercial license” which is kind of a joke in my opinion since we’re not lawyers and we don’t have the ability to give licenses but people will happily pay extra for it.
10. Being active in the community forum will help get you noticed. Answer questions or occasionally comment on posts in the Fiverr forum. This is also a great place to get advice from other sellers. You never know where your next customer might find you so think of the forum as another place to get discovered.
NOTE: The tips I mentioned above won’t benefit you if no one can see your gigs. Fiverr ranks gigs in their search engine based on several factors and it’s constantly being changed so I would suggest reading about Fiverr’s most recent algorithm and find ways to make it favor you. The most important factor is having great customer reviews and a low amount of gig cancellations.
If everyone that buys from you is happy and leaves a good review, then Fiverr’s algorithm will assume that you don’t suck and will direct more traffic in your direction. It’s better to cancel a gig than to receive a bad review but neither will benefit you, so avoid both if possible.
Thanks for your time reading this and I hope it helps you to make more income and high conversion rate on fiverr. You can follow me on twitter I follow back thanks @darey_Gr8
Have a happy freelancing career on Fiverr

Hi there, since you're already into writing, have no fear, you can make it.
However, success is not guaranteed. I believe since you're not exposed to the field that you will have a deficiency of knowledge. But not to worry, you can quickly come up to speed.
A good place to start is this thread:
https://www.nairaland.com/1833989/how-make-1000-month-writing
Please, read every single page and take action as you read. You will become more exposed to what the job entails and what you need to do.
Then after that, you need to start working on your grammar. Forget UK English, focus on the American market which is where 90% of the jobs come from.
I recommend three books for you, they are:
1 - The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation by Jane Strauss 2 - The Chicago Manual of Style 16th Edition. 3 - Elements of Style by Strunk and White
You can breeze through the first book in one week. After that, you might start broaching the second book which is more of a reference book but it sure pays to have it by your side. The third book should be your guide into the workings of American English. Read it from time to time.
Now that you're becoming better on the grammar side of things, it is now time to start learning about content writing. As a word of advise, if you serious about playing at world-class level and making cool money, do not neglect the steps I am about to mention.
1 - Learn the mechanics of content creation with Neil Patel - https://www.quicksprout.com/the-advanced-guide-to-content-marketing/ 2 - Learn SEO with Yoast - https://yoast.com/beginners-guide-yoast-seo/
This should get you started. Depending on where you are coming from, it might take you between 3 months to 1 year to become a world-class content creator. If, however, you prefer earning peanuts, then don't bother developing yourself.
If you read this far, as a little reward for your efforts, please, find all the books I mentioned and some other highly valuable resources that will expand your mind and equip you with the things you need in this folder:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1T3WZuea9_z5C6Qp7nR4srE4csz_Uiaqi?usp=sharing
If it helped you in anyway but you still have questions, hit me up. I am at your service.
There's something for everyone.

7 Tips for Writing an Effective Bid
With thousands of freelancers competing for jobs and perhaps a hundred or more bidding on the same job, how do you make your bid stand out from the rest? The fact is each employer is as different as each freelancer, so there really isn’t a “magic formula” that works for every bid. There are, however some important steps you can take to increase the chances that a prospective employer will consider your bid seriously. Here are ten simple tips for writing an effective bid:
1. Read the project description carefully. After all, if the employer doesn’t feel you understand the project, you’re not likely to win the bidding. Besides, many employers will ask for specific details that you need to be aware of. In fact, employers often include a phrase that must be included in your bid in order to have it considered. The bottom line is, you should always take the time to go through the description thoroughly.
2. If you have questions, use the Project Clarification Board before you bid. Winning a project without knowing exactly what you’re getting into isn’t a good situation for you or the service buyer.
3. Keep your bid clear, concise and to the point. Remember that the employer may have dozens or even hundreds of bids to consider. It’s very likely that every word of every bid isn’t going to be read. Bids with unnecessarily long descriptions may be skipped over completely. Don’t invite the employer to ignore your bid by making it too wordy.
5. Follow up with a private message. After you place your bid, use the private message board to provide more information. This is the appropriate place to add those less important details you avoided in your bid. After all, if your bid generated enough interest to get the employer this far, you’re halfway there. Now those details may make the difference.
6. Be competitive with your pricing. Note that this doesn't necessarily mean you need to be the lowest bidder. Bidding in a world-wide marketplace makes for tough competition, but if your work is truly above average, you may find that employers are willing to pay above average prices. On the other hand, if you’re relatively new to freelancing, you may need to establish a reputation first. A little common sense will go a long way here.
7. Last, but certainly not least, proofread your bid before you submit it. Is it written clearly? Are there misspellings? No matter what kind of project you’re bidding on, a poorly written proposal suggests a lack of interest and poor work habits. Neither of those is going to work in your favor.

I don't mind at all. I am a freelancer on Upwork. I also publish on Amazond KDP, and run affiliate campaigns with Maxbounty.com.
Upwork writing earnings - $1500 per month Kindle royalties - $300 - $500 per month (45 books which were ghost-written for me). Maxbounty affiliate commissions - $400 - $800 per month.
A good month I earn N800K. A bad month, N500K.
It took three and a half years to get to this point, though. Check out my freelance writing guide here: https://www.nairaland.com/4430098/opinion-which-bigger-better-between/1#66358589
