Title: Keywords used to buy our images?
Post by: Nikd90 on May 08, 2013, 02:37

Is there a way to check which keyword from photo was searched that provided you a download?  In the iPhone app for shutterstock there is a place holder to click top keyword but that doesn't work for me

admin edit: gave a more descriptive title.

As far as I know it is only available in "Image Gallery Stats". Sort it according to sales, find the image and then click on the  "See all keywords" link below the image's thumb. It will give a % summary of which keywords was used to find your image.

You can't click ont that. It will show the keywords most commonly used to download a picture - if any are registered. Not for every sale the keywords are registered.
The info is not updated real-time,  it takes about a day to show the updates.

Thanks. Will check at home. I don't login on to the website often except when I need to submit.

Thanks - I did not know about this.  Very few keywords seem to be important - 2 or 3 per image.  Very interesting and helpful.
