Hi,
Does the image position in the search engine changes when people rate your image?
What is the benefit of getting ratings?

No and none. I haven't noticed it anyway so I don't think it really makes a lot of difference other than that someone liked you picture but didn't buy it. ;)

Benefit of getting a rating? It makes you feel nice to be appreciated.

Once upon a time, I believe that the ratings did have an affect on the best match placement. But then a bunch of rating gangs got together and started gaming the system and IS had to kill that program.

Artistically and uniquely created images tend to get higher rating while having lower sales then the ones with lesser artistic values but useful for a wide variety of clients. Denis

Ratings increase the chances of your picture being viewed in any search which is ordered by rating.

An artistically and uniquely created image with high rating could be interesting to look at but not necessarily useful other then a very specific project. Hence the reason some of those images get very high views with low sales. Denis

Yes, I think is big problem there. Many views no sales make bad impression Maybe best not to get rating. No? Can opt out on rating?
