I'm invisible. What's wrong?

Hey guys, I've been around for a while and have had no sales whatsoever. I've been checking my files and just realized most of them have just 1 view which means nobody is checking them at all. What am I doing wrong?

I'm starting to feel very disappointed because those statistics leave no room for anything, it's impossible to sell without views. What do you think?

HI Ruden

A couple of things. Firstly the stats are a bit "hit and miss" so don't put too much faith in them! Secondly it does seem to take a few months (unless you are lucky) for files to start selling. Thirdly you only have 7 files online. If you are looking for a regular income you will need a lot more than that and to add to them on an ongoing basis.

Stock is a long hard slog at first but once the sales start coming it gets easier!

Thanks for your answer TE.

I know this is a long hard road, I've been selling at audiojungle for a few months where sales were slow but existing, I thought it was time to check some other stock markets.

I'll try to follow your advice and be patient while uploading more tracks but those stats really killed me.

Hey guys!

We are about to adjust the code on how the "number of views" for an item is handled, so it will hopefully be more accurate soon.

Cheers,

Thanks Jonas, that's definitely good news!
