I usually have between 5 and 50 FB deal SOD sales almost every day. My last one was on 20 March 2015! I'm wondering what's happening!? Is it just me?
I tried to find info on SS forum but unfortunately without success!

Did you tick the no sensitive use box? That would do it!

I'm still opt in for sensitive use, as always.

I haven't see any of those lately either. Last one was March 20. That's unusual.

That's weird. What happened on 20 March? Did they cut the deal?

That or they moved Facebook to the Premier Select trial, only two things come to mind. A fair bit of tinkering is going on since that announcement, but who would rock the boat with that carrot dangling? Perhaps they moved Facebook to provide a bigger carrot, expect more exciting news soon.

I think your breath smells of carrot, that's not how exciting news works here.

Sorry for asking a stupid question here; I'm a Shutterstock contributor, but I don't know what "facebook sales" are...? Can anyone elaborate on this?

I think FB sales generally turn up as 38c SODs in the download breakdown section. I'd not seen any for ages until one for that amount turned up today.

Somebody may correct me if I am wrong.

Semmick Photo · « **Reply #11 on:** April 15, 2015, 04:46 »

They are as much as the sub level you are on

photostockad · « **Reply #12 on:** April 15, 2015, 04:58 »

I have only 2-3 Fb SOD / month. Last one was on 11th april.

emjaysmith · « **Reply #13 on:** April 15, 2015, 05:27 »

I never had any.......

I tried creating a few ads yesterday and the Shutterstock search in Facebook took forever to load (it never loaded actually) So i ended up using some other images I had. If others (or everyone) is experiencing the same thing, that could be a reason for little to no FB sales.

Well, the day I posted that, I start getting them again. Back to normal now.

Hmm strange I get one on the same day too! The sales started trickling again since then!
