Title: There are views, but no sales
Post by: santosa laksana on March 13, 2012, 11:38
Hi all.

There are probably experiencing the same thing with me. In my portfolio there is a view, then what happens with the sale of the blank. Could there be something wrong with my image?
Anyone willing to share your experience with this?
Thank you.

regards

you seem to open threads about CanStockPhoto weekly :)

beside that I am going to say the obvious, comparing to SS I do like 20x less per month, so they are a "lower" agency, looking at the Polls Results 100$ in SS mean 10.3$ in CanStockPhoto, if you are experiencing different trend might be tons of things from their target, to your work, to everything, basically you cannot rely on CanStockPhoto to get more than a few bucks

Yes, I think you're right. I would think for it. Thank you luissantos84.

On certain sites the number of views tells you nothing. They count the "spider" activity of search engines as views. Canstock is one of those sites. Views are not necessarily views by humans, so the only thing you can count on is actual sales and for those you have to be patient as Canstock is not SS or IS as Luis said.  ;)

 ::)Hi, How are you?
Yes, I think, continue to add pictures and waited.
And a pleasure to get the first sale.
Pleased with your comment.

I admire your dedication to Canstock. Oneday Canstock will be massive, they'll buy out Getty just so that they can play golf through their office windows. By this time Duncan would have appointed you second in command due to your relentless dedication and hard work for the company, and you'll be laughing at little peons like me still uploading everywhere ;D

When that happens, I'll make sure you're invited to tee off a few balls!

Seriously, you don't want to see me playing golf especially in a building, it doesn't matter how big the windows are. But I'll come along and shake ur hand and Santosa's too  :D

well its good that your images are getting views - after all IT ALL STARTS WITH A VIEW
but instead of spending time looking at statistics - use your time wisely, and keep shooting images and uploading, the sales will start to come at some point.
the first sale I think is the hardest one to get, after that they will come a little faster

 Hi ....

Wow, if what you wrote is true, MCP & Mr.Duncan, wow, it's a great honor for me. Hopefully it can be realized. And I just got back today from the hunting scene on the beach. There are about 80 pictures I can. Hopefully this can be an interesting thing. So I can not quit to upload, ha ha ha .............

best Regards

Don't forget me - I usually submit first to CanStockPhoto since the review the fastest in the business! Someday we will be on the golf course (named after Duncan)  ;D

Santosalaksana, Just a heads up - your portfolio website link at IS and at DT goes nowhere. I didn't check the others.
