Ask Does your Upwork profile ranking drop if you are not active for a while?

[Edward22]

There is a common fear among Upwork freelancers that stepping away from the platform, even for a short break, can cause their profile to lose visibility in ways that take a long time to recover from. Some people say their job success score stayed the same after a break while others noticed their proposals getting fewer views than before. It is not always easy to separate what changed because of inactivity versus other factors on the platform. Have you ever taken a break from Upwork and noticed a real change in how your profile performed when you came back?

I think if you are not active it is going to affect your ranking and they are reason for this. First is that people are going to message you and if you don't get the reply in time they are going to definitely rank someone who give faster response above you.
