  1. Hello Fiverr, This is great news, I have been using the Order Limit count and delivery timelines so far to manage this. I will give this a shot the next time I want to go on vacation. Could you clarify if Sellers will be able to send out offers while unavailable. The use case for this is with Repeat clients, once we have a relationship and trust going, we sometimes charge the customer after delivering the work, or we might want to continue to support repeat clients by working minimal hours even during a vacation. Marking as unavailable blocks us from being able to send offers. While it makes sense to block buyers from placing orders when unavailable, the sellers should still be allowed to send out offers if they wish, just like they can opt in to receive messages. This to me seems like the missing piece of the puzzle. May be this is also fixed, but I cannot see anything regarding this point on the blog post despite reading it thoroughly twice. Would be nice to get some clarity around this, I will not use this feature if I cannot send out custom offers to my dearest repeat clients. That's a dealbreaker for me.
  2. This likely alludes to algorithmic changes. Say if Fiverr's algorithm uses orders completed in the last 30 days as a metric to rank your Gig and then if you take a 30 day break, when you return, the algorithm sees 0 orders in the last 30 days and puts your gig ranking down. I am assuming they fixed the gig page ranking algorithm that looks at your sales and conversion data for the past 30 days or 60 days or whatever the case may be to exclude the vacation period. So say if the metric looks at past 30 days data and you were unavailable for 30 days, the algorithm will now consider the 30 days data prior to when you set yourself as unavailable. Of course, I don't know this for certain but me being a Tech Freelancer familiar with IT Lingo, this is what I am reading in between the lines. Again, I might be totally wrong, but there's a good chance that my guess is right.
  3. Great Feature but I think this is skewed and benefits the More Tenured Sellers. Newer Sellers will have more newer customers and not so many repeats. So the math for calculating the score has to factor that in too.. Also very new sellers doing business with just 1 or 2 clients will get a 100% score, so that must be factored as well.. The repeat score has to factor the tenurity and history of the seller in order to reflect accurately. But it's a big step that we now have visibility as to what comprises the factors and where we stand and how far away are we from that Magical 95 number..
