It looks at the amount of times you have responded back to a customer. When you respond to messages quickly, our search algorithm ranks you more highly. It doesn’t matter if you say “I’d love to accept your booking”, “I’m afraid I can’t meet your needs”, or “Can I get back to you?” Provided you respond promptly, and maintain a 100% Response Rate, you’ll climb in the rankings.

Where Can I see mine?

You can view this on your profile, it will be displayed near your profile picture. It is also displayed on the search results page on your profile tile.

\

On a fortnightly basis (Starting March 2020) we will send you an email which contains a dashboard of all your statistics.

How is it Calculated?

\

This is a percentage. It looks at the amount of times you have responded back to a customer vs how many times you haven’t.

Tip: Maintaining a 100% response rate helps your search ranking!
