1/3 of My Products Show NO Views since Mid November

I wrote about this issue a few months ago.  Sadly, not, much has changed.  About 1/3 of the items I make never get a “VIEW” this has been going on since November.  Below are two examples from 2 different stores.

View stats are OFF - again.
Only part of the views are registered, which makes it even more tricky to catch. I have several products that I viewed that did not register a view. Even though it says they have been modified on a certain date … really, without viewing it?
As a result products are disappearing and store rank tanks … not to mention sales.

Are you sharing your items?

I can always see ‘1 view’ within a day of sharing to Pinterest. Whether they get more views after that is very variable depending on the popularity of the item in the ‘outside world’ and how much traffic I am bringing or if it is sufficiently visible in the marketplace to gain views from onsite traffic. But it appears to be working.

I’m not sure Zazzle registers ‘our own views’? Perhaps if we were logged out when viewing but even then there might be a limit based on IP address. Otherwise we could artificially boost our views which I don’t believe is possible.

Yes, Zazzle registers our own views—except during times when indexing is slow and views are not updating, which seems to be from Friday night to Monday morning (almost on a weekly basis).

I’m pretty sure it doesn’t register my views. 

I did an experiment with this using Incognito windows and that way seems to register views.

Leah, our views are recorded in the views count when Zazzle is working correctly. It has worked this way for years. 😏

I’m probably not looking enough! lol 

Meanwhile my views are still updating after sharing.

Hmmm… I posted this because I thought that Zazzle itself gave you an automatic 1 view.  I thought that was how things worked in the past? Perhaps that is no longer the case.  Or, I was wrong?

My views register, I always look at my listings as soon as I post them even before they index, and they almost always have one view within a day,even before they are live. I don’t pay a lot of attention to the views though, I just figure a lot of things tend to be a wonky, for example,  I have things that haven’t indexed for almost a week now. This has become expected and regular at this point so I try not to stress about it. All the waiting items I made before today have 1 or 2 views. The things I made today are showing 0 but I think tomorrow will show 1.

So that being said, if your personal views aren’t counting within a day or so, then something may be wonky!

If you view your item after you list it, it should

same here…hopeless .. something happen with Z

For me it’s a product I posted way back in the beginning of March that I had a few friends look at and it still says “0” views. Unfortunately, I don’t publish new products almost not at all any more. So I have nothing new to compare it to.

My latest showing in public was created 3/24/24 . Since then I have posted 16 more items (3/26 to 4/1).

This is an ongoing problem.  So many of my products have 0 views.  Plus I have noticed that its hit or miss on what products become public in my store.  Example I will list 5 new products and 3 will show up immediately in “new products on public view” the other 2 seem to have fallen through the cracks they are the products with the 0 views.  No matter how many times I promote the 0 view products they do not seem to get any views.  Its so discouraging. 

Are you using Brave as a browser @Susang6 ? That was my problem several months back. I was using it because it’s purpose was to block adds. It was also blocking my own views as well. I’m not sure potential customers were also using a browser with this function but once I went back to using Firefox my views came back.

I use google chrome and normally do not have a problem with getting that initial just listed view the (1 view) but some of my products do fall through the cracks and have 0 views.  I honestly think its a glitch…and I am certain that tech support will figure it out.  Like this product you can see it got a like but

no view…   thanks for your reply .
