Help!  My ratings went down after I put an article up last night and re-structured another?   I suppose if people don't click on my articles this can happen, but I thought I'd query it anyway.  It came as a bit of a shock today to see I had gone down from 95% to 92%.  Doesn't give one any heart.  Shall I top myself or stay up all night writing another few articles?

(Thinks bubble).  Would it have anything to do with the fact that I deleted my picture (but I can't get the site to upload another).

Don't worry. Ratings can be up and down. Relax, sleep well, then get up tomorrow and write another enjoyable article.

So, I went to bed, slept well, did as you suggested, but today, my ratings have gone down another 3%.  Is this normal?   I've seen them climb since i started on here a year ago but to drop from 95% to 89% there must surely be something I should know.  Is there someone I could ask about my articles?  Are they not up to scratch, are my images wrong, are the subjects too banal (mostly travel i admit and it's not everyone's bag), but I never expected that my ratings would go down.  Up yes, but down ...........................?

Just before I posted this I returned to my pages to find, horror, that my rating now stands at 87%.

Help.

I don't really bother about my ratings. I'm more bothered about the amount of traffic that I have going to my articles. I have a few that sit at 30 something% but were doing really well for traffic, surprisingly.
