There was a change to the ranking algorithm. Woweeee! The roller coaster has crested and is careening downward. Enjoy the ride.

My rank dropped 90 places the first day the changes were implemented. I continued to post, help, and greet consistently and yet, I see my ranking drop one or two places every day.
Today, I am at 200 - On the top of the bubble - On the cusp...

Of what?
What will I lose? If I need WA ranking to boost my mindset, then my mindset is not strong enough to withstand the rigors of retraining myself to excel in this world of Affiliate Marketing.
My worth and your worth is not determined by that number next to the word "rank."
Are you stuck in ranking quicksand? I think WA has done us a favor. Now, I can focus on my business. I'll still help. I'll still greet people. I'll still stop and celebrate the victories of my colleagues. Yes, even those who pass me in rank. I figure they deserve it.
My priority is to get as good at this as I can get. Rank will take care of itself.

See you at the top.
