Seeking tips on fixing my average response time.

Greetings, 

Hope y'all doing well in Fiverr. Recently, I replied a buyer 12 hours later after he sent me a message which resulted my average response time from 1 hour to 7 hours! Will that affect my gig sales? How can I bring back my average response time to the way it was? Point to be noted, I'm a new seller and it has been just over 2 months on Fiverr. Thanks in advance.

As long as it's under 24 hours, you won't get penalized.

The only way to make the average shorter is to answer future messages more quickly. Basic math.

If you reply quickly to future messages, the response time will automatically decrease.
