Profile Visibility Question: Local or Global Reach?

[andreamircheska]

I've noticed a change in my profile activity over the past month and wanted to reach out to the experienced freelancers here for some insights. It seems like I've been receiving messages primarily from buyers in countries near me, and my overall messages rating has lowered.

I'm curious to know whether Fiverr's algorithm might be limiting the visibility of my profile to a specific geographic region rather than a global audience. Has anyone else experienced something similar, or is there a setting I might be overlooking?

I appreciate any advice or shared experiences you can provide. Thank you in advance for your help!
