Title: New Stats Page - Downloads Updated Daily!
Post by: Pacesetter on June 05, 2024, 03:47
Check out the new Content Statistics page on iStock. This is a welcome feature. Stats are updated daily when filtered for month-to-date. There's some other filter options there too.

Check it out!

It comes 10 years too late, but yeah... it is appreciated.

But we can't see the money, right?

But it does help a lot, especially if newly uploaded content gets immediate sales.

I believe this still doesn't show all - only downloads directly through iStock.  Others through various subsidiaries are not captured as they are likely reported once a month.  Thus Resulting # for the month will always be higher.

I really appreciate this new feature. The positive feedback I receive DAILY helps encourage me to continue creating & uploading. I now don't have to wait til the end of the month to get this data.

I have two suggestions: 1) Allow us to sort by master ID. I'd like to see if my newest additions are selling and; 2) Not limit the screen to just 10 images. 100 would be better.

I don't mind not seeing the money, but I would like to see the downloads sorted by day. If I sell an asset one day and then I sell it again the next day, then I have no record of what days it sold because it all gets lumped into the most recent download.

Now instead of feeling depressed once a month it's daily  :o

Today, it does look like there are more than 10 images/page.

Yes, a great new feature. Made so that you can be proud when the statistics improve. But in the end, what counts is the money that comes in – in total and for each individual download. This has been left out as a precaution. They will know exactly why.
So unfortunately I have no praise for this innovation.

Yes, I noticed that my sales for May are fewer than half of my 'increments' for the month, which is impossible.

I noticed when I first checked the results for May and then re-checked just now there were further sales coming in for the month (eg: another 22 video sales). So there's probably some delay even with the previous month until the sale is confirmed and complete.
