Does The Availability Badge Really Work?

Hello everyone, I've been trying Availability Badge for 2 weeks now and in analytics results I see 0 - 2 profile visits if I don't take any action during the day. On the days when I make an offer, my profile visits increase because they naturally view my profile and I see it as paid by Availability Badge. Does this really work??? Are you using it?

Apparently, the availability badge works when you're rotated to the top of the list of talents, so clients can see you are available when they send invitations.

That's actually interesting did not know that, thank you!

It seems to me that nothing has been working on Upwork lately. The only thing that works is the zombie formula that buries itself.

Eh. I haven't noticed a difference. In fact, though this is likely to be coincidence plus timing, I have had three times the amount of views this week without a badge that I did on my highest of the previous eight weeks. 😄

So, who knows...but as a sample size of one I can say it hasn't made much of a difference for me so far.
