It's sad to admit but unfortunately Contra died for me as a source of inbound leads.
I've invested a lot of time in my portfolio and content there but with the current state of discover rankings, there's nothing much I can do.
Hey Alex, thank you for sharing. I just got started on Contra, and I intended to invest a lot of time in polishing my portfolio on the platform and even investing in Pro. Seeing something like this is very concerning.
From your image, I see that you don't get as many leads as...

hehe, looks like I’m on a plateau 😅
Time to make a bigger move and test something stronger to get the growth going again.

🐐 + 💬 = ❤️
When I first joined Contra, I wasn't focused on rankings. I was focused on building meaningful relationships, delivering quality work, and creating brands that help businesses stand out.
This score is a reflection of that consistency.
Every project, every client conversation, every logo, website, and brand strategy session contributes to building a reputation that people can trust.
Grateful for the clients who have trusted me with their vision and the creatives I've connected with along the way.
The goal isn't just to climb the rankings. It's to continue creating work that makes an impact.
Onward to the top 10%.
keep it up, Austyn! 🚀
