There was this "faved" feature which was renamed to "followed" if I remember correctly. You could choose some of your images and they were supposed to get better rankings in the search. Now I can't find the feature anymore, it was under "sell images". Have you ever used it and did it help? Is it really gone or am I missing something?

Thanks!

That never worked for me. Merely a placebo to keep uploading.

I see, thanks. Maybe you're right.

To be honest never noticed it had gone - I did use it but never bothered to try and work out if it did any good.

I had just used that a few weeks ago and you are right, now it is gone. It was under the My Account area in the Main Menus page. I sent them a support request asking if it's no longer available.

Received this response today:

Hi Chris,

We would like to clarify that the feature has indeed been removed on our end.

Thank you

Thank you for the replies. That's it, then. I'm not so sure about the effect it had either, but I did use it regularly.

I don't know what they are doing but my income drastically decreased in May and June!
In the previous 12 months I was making around $300-400 a month.
May 2015 - $170
June 2015 - $140

What's going on?!

Similar situation here, though a bit less drastic. My average for February, March and April was $300, May and June only $180. July is being even slower. I have uploaded stuff that should sell well in summer, but 123 hardly sells my new work. That's why I was putting some hope into the faved feature.

Mine is holding steady, except last month (June) was bit down, from $140 to $110. These days $30 means something on some micro sites.

same here.. I was looking for a reason and I think I found it..

I think I was benefiting from "faved" feature a lot.. too bad it's removed.. it really worked incredibly well for me..

this proves, one more time, we have to make sure we don't rely on any agency.. you never know when they are going to pull a move like this..
