Invitations & profile views VS Profile Rate Increase!

[#1]

Well, I have noticed that with a particular profile rate, I get a certain number of invitations monthly and also the profile views fluctuate in a particular range.

And when I increase the profile rate there is a decrease in invitations which is an obvious thing.

But what I have observed that the profile views on My Stats also decreased with the increased profile rate.

Well, I understand clients are maybe unwilling to send invites due to the increased rates, but why does the search algorithm act differently here?

When you appear in the feed, it does not mean clients will check your profile.

When I searched a freelancer and saw someone with a rate I cannot afford, I had no interest in clicking on their profiles. They are expensive. Did not feel like looking at them and saying, wow, they are great, have a lot of experience, beautiful pictures, wanting a lot of money. I just wanted to have my job done within a given budget.

Thanks, Aleksandr. 

That's totally makes sense.

This is your indicator as a very weak and incompetent client ... Not the ability to negotiate and get the specialist you need
High bids on profile don't mean they want you to.
Any professional appreciates his knowledge and skills, and is ready to make a compromise ... For most pros, the process itself is important, what he is working on and what result will be obtained ...
But a trifle, money is important for them, not the result

I experience that the quality of invites has increased with higher profile rate, although invites come less frequently.
