Profile View Drop in Stats

How many highly experienced Freeelancers have seen their Profile Views in Stats drop precipitouisly in the last few weeks? Mine has gone from 60-70 to 7.

Couldn't tell you--I rarely look at it. It's one of the metrics I think is impossible to parse because so many variables operate on it, including where I am in UW's algorithmic rotation to show up near the top of search results.

Mine goes from 1 to 5 to 1 repeatedly.

Well, I also had a big drop from 41 to 36 to 2 !

Who really cares? The search feature is so flawed that it is a miracle we get seen at all. The graph is more like an ECG. We could flatline at any minute or spring back into life - but nobody knows why.

I'm with Phyllis and Nichola on this ... I rarely look at my stats and for the most part I question the validity of the numbers; especially since lately I question everything about the way Upwork operates on this platform.

It fluctuates because profile visibility is rotated but... yes

I once had a +1000%. I wish I had taken screenshot then. But I also like look of +11% in this graph.

MODS,

As the responses to this thread clearly shows, responding Freelancers, many of them Community Gurus, are reporting unexplained major declines in the Stats - Number of Profile Views for the last week.

Curiously, this occured right away the "Missing Stats" for all of us reappeared.

It is worth taking a look at. The confidence of many of us in UW reporting is being affected by this co-incidence.

Hello, I received the following email (attachment#01) from Upwork.

So I did as they asked.

Now I am finding my Marketing effectiveness not working. It's showing zero for some days (attachment#02). I recently opened an agency. Don't understand why this is happening with me suddenly and how to fix it. Please advise.
