How many positive thumbs ups can give a %1 increase in percentage ratings?

I have closely being monitoring my percentage ratings for sometime now so that i will remain within the limit neccessary for leveling up to a higher level.
Sometimes anytime i check around my profile settings, i notice that its like the percentage ratings just remain stagnant and static and that its like it is very hard to detect irrespective of whether you are getting more thumbs up or down.

Please i want to know if anyone has any idea of how many positive thumbs up can lead to an increase in the percentage ratings of a seller?
i believe the old sellers should have a good idea about this.

Well surely this is a ratio of how many services you have sold in total and how many more you sell and how many thumbs up or down you get in future... it would be a mathematical thing not just a case of saying ok you need another 20 thumbs up to shift it 1%... surely?

If you want to test seocheckout mathematical accuracy for calculating positive percents check this website: http://www.percentagecalculator.net/

For example, I have a 99.1% seller rating ratio with 8 negative reviews:

How many positive thumbs ups can give a %1 increase in percentage ratings? So 8 negative reviews out of 902 positive reviews equal 0.88% negative rating.
Note: because I have a 0.88 negative rating SEOClers algorithm interprets this as a 0.9 thus this why my seller rating is 99.1%.

quod erat demonstrandum. You can test your own seller rating score yourself the way I did it here.

I believe it is calculated according to how many sales you make, and not just on whether it is a thumbs up or thumbs down. For instance if you made just 20 sales, and you got a thumb down, the percentage drop is going to be much higher then if it were for a seller who got a first thumbs down after having completed 500 sales. In the latter case it would be a minimal drop. I suggest to avoid wasting time trying to figure it out and focus more on the quality of your services as that is what truly affects the percentage rating ultimately.

wow, i think you are 100% right on this,.now i get the logic of what you are trying to drive at. if a seller has done a lot of sales and acquire a good number of positive reviews and th positive reviews are still counting, the effect of any negative review on his percentage ratings will be very minimal or even neglectable. that is great.
That means a seller needs to focus seriously on delivering good quality services to acquire a large number of positive reviews as many as possible. that is the logic. thanks for your response. i am grateful.

Well, the reply to that question I think it is: it varies widely!
If you want to shrink the bad feedback in half, you need to more than double the good feedback I think, for example:
90 thumbs up = 90% positive
10 thumbs down = 10% negative
In order to have 95% positive and 5% negative, you need the following:
190* thumbs up = 95% positive
10 thumbs down = 5% negative

*90 x 2 = 180, so 190 is more than double. This is just theory, in practice the figure is probably way worse... Because till receiving 100 new positive feedback, you may receive once in a while another negative feedback!
