Mine still there but I wouldn't take zooms too seriously as an indicator of sales

I reckon a good proportion of zooms result in sales......eventually wheels grind slow at Alamy I find.

Or views. I have had sales with no zooms or views. I we get too involved wasting time on watching details and data and forget that only sales make money. What does an unsold zoom prove? That someone looked and bought something else. Maybe time to make a better version of same shot. AFter that, it's just watching the wheels go by.

Agree that zooms don't necessarily mean sales, just wanted to understand how they can go down.

As you say views and zooms only really help to know what people are looking for and how close you might be. If I get a few zooms on something I would take it as a guide to do something better along the same lines.

Yes, my view as well. It's advise and saying what people might be looking at to buy, and I should make an updated or better version. That could lead to future sales.

Mine went down slightly when I reached 12 months because you are only seeing 12 months at a time. My first month had more zooms than the current month.

Zoomis go down every month because they show only for certain period. So zooms go down at the beginning of every month, jesus.

Wrong actually as it reports an annual period (plus 1 month) currently Period : 01 Jul 2016 to 05 Jul 2017  depending where you look. So if you are going to start invoking jesus get it right.....I thought the forum was to help people out?

Thank you! My thoughts exactly!
