Author Topic: Pond5 - such a long time for views? (Read 6296 times)

Well I did get told it was difficult to get new stuff seen.

Am I flogging a dead horse?

Have about 100 animation videos on Pond5, for a few months.

Only 2 files have been viewed!

I'm not under any illusion that my videos are amazing but there are some sold on fotolia and shutterstock.

And each has at least a few views on Fotalia.

Do they eventually get viewed or is there really no hope for new content?

Pond5 already have all the content customers need and more, so yes, it's very hard for new material to even get views.

Hard, but not impossible.

Especially they have a lot of good quality content in the membership area that sell for next to nothing and is cannibalizing most sales

I have about as many SALES on the other sites as views on Pond5 and Fotolia. But I also have sales on Fotolia on items with 0 views... So I wouldn't really trust those numbers...

Apparently view on FT do not reflect the activity of customers logging in Abobe website.
Since more and more customers go through Adobe, views in FT are constantly going down and are not reliable.
I hope they are working in restoring combined views on Adobe

Yes I've got files on fotolia with zero views but at least some get viewed, maybe once, some a lot.

But for pond5 there has been a total of 2 views for ALL of the files, which I thought was a tad low!

$:-\$

I see, that makes sense.

This also explains sales without any views.
I also do get the occasional one
