I doubt it will increase any sales since usual buyer visits the stock site for particular dog on white and it's unlikely that some trending VR headsets would be purchased as well. Pond5 has some statistics pages in Artist Resources:

My point here is, if a buyer searches for say "valentine's day" he will get different result in all the search filter tabs. this way he have more options as well as can also understand whats getting poplar in the list.
I got inspired from deviantart, which has same search options which makes it easy to use.
