Your node has low Consensus Weight. Also your node is not marked as "Fast" Normal that happens between a week. Also advertised traffic is very low.
https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/A00E3AAF5A24DC69740FA7A3A1C4A0ECB7972722 Low Consensus Weight (like 11) could be due to several factors: 1. *Low Bandwidth*: If your node has a limited bandwidth or is not properly configured to advertise its available bandwidth, it might get a lower weight. 2. *Unstable or Intermittent Availability*: Nodes that are frequently going offline or showing unstable behavior will have a lower consensus weight. 3. *Geolocation or Restrictions*: Certain regions or configurations may cause your node to have reduced visibility or reliability in the eyes of Tor's directory authorities. To improve the consensus weight of a Tor node: - Ensure *high uptime* and a reliable internet connection. - Advertise higher *bandwidth* if available. - Make sure your node is properly configured with the *right ports and keys*.
