Why is my rating so low?

I know I shouldn't focus too much on rating, especially since I've been playing for less than 2 months, but I'm still curious about why my ratings seem to be all over the place, and it's almost 400 points lower here than on lichess:

Here on chess.com, my Rapid chess rating has never been higher than 747, and mostly hovers at around 650 (I've played about 350-400 of these games in the past 6 weeks, mostly 10 min).

On lichess.org, which I've been on for the same amount of time, my rapid chess game rating hovers at around 1000 for the same game types.

Here on chess.com, I'm able to consistently get 3 stars beating the bots up to a rating of 1700 (1700 is where I can only get 2 stars, because I usually need a hint during those games).  My puzzle rating here is 1400-1500 (1300 on lichess). I know that playing rapid chess against real people will yield a lower rating than playing puzzles or bots, but is it typical to be over 1000 points lower in your real games than vs bots?

And, I read that ratings on chess.com tend to be higher than those on lichess, but only by about 100 points. Mine is the opposite, and the difference is 350-400 points. That post was written a year ago, though, so I was also wondering if the rating system had changed since then. Thanks for any input (I know that some answers will be that I should just pay attention to learning the game instead of what my rating is, but it's hard for me to feel like I've improved when my rating isn't going up and when it's so low here versus elsewhere).

Because ratings are started higher on lichess. They start everyone at 1500 while on Chess.com, people can start as low as 400.

Thanks for the input--I didn't realize that the bots are not helpful to improve your playing. Also, good to know about the puzzle ratings not being relevant & that lichess has higher ratings. I will keep studying & playing real people and hopefully will be able to improve my rating over time

Online ratings are highly unreliable, especially at the lower levels. Players below 1000 are so inconsistent, with so many mistakes, that their results are not very indicative of their skill level.

if you want a better idea of your actual skill level, join an OTB club, play only slow time controls, and discuss your games with stronger players.

Thanks so much for the advice about how to improve my game!

hi guys what is up

ELO is rigged my dear friend, but Anyways I wish you geat day and good luck!

Both Chess.com and Lichess use variations of the Elo rating system, but each platform has its own specific algorithm, which leads to different ratings.
