[Confusion Over My Success Score.]

I am in the same situation as you. My score has been stuck at 4 since the new system was implemented, despite having only "Effective communication" as a negative impact. The entire process is very unclear and frustrating. It seems like it would take a lot of time to improve even one point, even with good reviews 

Indeed. It is very confusing and frustrating. Definitely feel like all the work I've put in for years has been entirely reverted and my only way of getting customers is from returning clients as opposed to new, since all my gigs aren't promoted anymore.

Last year for 6 months I had very few clicks and impressions. Only 5 star reviews, I didn't even have a 4 star review during that time. And when I talked with the success manager from Fiverr, they told me the buyer satisfaction rate (which I guess it's the success score now, more or less) is low. And they also told me that even if people leave a review publicly, they might leave the opposite when asked privately. So those private reviews can vastly range... plus a lot of people are in a rush and will randomly leave a review, espeically since it's private. The bottom line is, we'll never know.

I appreciate your expertise. Thanks mate.

The success score also takes into account private metrics like private reviews. So even if the situation seems great publicly, private reviews might say a different story. Some buyers leave random, bad private reviews, and if no one leaves you a good private review (most people don't bother), that bad private review from one person can be very problematic. 

This must be the case. I guess I'll never know, as I can't recall any client I had a good but also bad experience with, haha. It's quite unfortunate that the current system works this way. It essentially keeps sellers in the dark about how clients feel about their work. With no chance to improve on something, you are punished to the point where you can't survive on the platform anymore. Thank you for your insight.

Hello! I hope you all are doing well. My question is, why is my success score so low? I have fewer negative reviews than positive ones, and I've surpassed all the metrics, even as far as top-rated, besides the success score. Before the new system, I was a level 2 with no issues. I'm told I am below Fiverr's standards, and all my gigs are no longer promoted. Any help/clarification on the matter would be excellent. Since the new system started, I have completed at least 4-5 gigs, all of which I got good feedback on, and my score has not changed. Any help would be great. Perhaps I'm just unaware of how things work now. Attached are screenshots showing several stats about all my active gigs that receive orders and other numbers.
