huge sales drop for new images

(1/17) > >>

philfreez:
Hello guys,
since one month and an half I've noticed two unusual (for me) facts:

- sales from my new images are dropping down in a way that I never experienced from 3 years of activity or so;
- on the other hand, some old photos* that maybe did not sell almost anything have suddenly started selling modestly like never did before..

I've changed nothing in my production 'style', neither in keywording, quality and quantity. The only different thing I've done since dec 2017 is to start with footage uploads..
I know that in recent times SS has made some changes to their algorithm and the first thing I've noticed is the disappearance of the "relevance" tab in the search engine.
Maybe I've posted only bad subjects for more then a month but it still looks strange for me, the other agencies (9) are keeping their usual sales levels with the same portfolio and the same new pictures...

Maybe the problem is just me but I'd like to know if something similar happened to you too


*oh, and my old best sellers still sells really good

Well I am.... normal?  :D
my final monthly income in $ has not had major changes (thanks to the best sellers and the new footage activity)
but I am just a little worried about my new content cause new content means growth.. I'm simply trying to understand the reason

lucky you all who were selling new stuff.... what can we say about our footage that starts selling after about a year. For many years now. It is like if we are doing future footage. Annoying though.  ::)
