Hello to everyone!
Alright so y'all telling me using the availability feature all this time was causing negative impact on my gigs? Man I did not know. My visibility went down drastically since last year for gigs that were always popular. I thought it was just the market chaing but since this availability option came out I started using it. Sometimes I rather not receive more orders without prior contact from the buyer, so at least once every two weeks I use this feature, sometimes with the option to keep receiving messages, sometimes with that option off if I'm really taking days off. My only problem with that feature was that most of the times when I sent offers to clients while having the availability off, they weren't able to order and it was annoying because I did want to keep it off while working with those clients specifically. But I had no idea it had direct impact on my visibility and now that I know it does make sense and it sucks.
