When someone Likes one of my products (and we get notified - yay to notifications been turned on) is there somewhere I can go to see retrospectively what has been liked?
I know that you can see this in notifications, but these disappear after 30 days.
And I know I can see the products that I’ve liked, but it would be so useful to be able to see what other folks (potential customers) like.
What I would like to know is, does it even matter that someone likes your product? Not just for “feel good”, but does that help in marketplace placement, zrank, etc? I’ve asked this in the past & have just gotten “crickets”.
I don’t know the answer to your question @Marcia .What I was asking for was this:
if lots of people like the design, that can tell me one thing.
If lots of people like the designs but don’t buy, that could tell me something different.
So I was coming at it from a research viewpoint.
I can’t believe that it helps in the market placement. After all, Zazzle have only just seemingly been able to activate notifications for sales etc to creators..
@PlayfulPixel , sorry – I didn’t mean to hijack your post! I understand what you’re saying – good question! But I was hoping that someone reading this might know the answer to my query, as an aside.
I was just searching for the answer to this mystery as well 😄 Zazzle doesn’t state anywhere that likes effect visibility in the marketplace. It appears to be just for users on the platform to collect products they may want to purchase later. However, I get a bit suspicious of likes sometimes because I am not able to see the profiles that like my products, except for one incident in which the profile that liked my product had also followed me. I was then able to check out their profile and discovered that they had somehow stolen one of my art prints and was selling it as a digital download! 😱 They had stolen some other creators designs too. We all reported the profile and it thankfully got taken down. So now I’m always hoping the people that like my products are not saving them to bootleg them.
@MissPaperFarm I couldn’t agree more! Maybe I’m just overly suspicious but when I see it’s a known designer liking a number of products of mine, I can’t help but wonder why. Since more likes don’t seem to have any weight in zrank, mp placement, etc., it’s not really doing you any favors. Will my products now be copied? Stolen? Who knows. Same thing with followers. I used to follow other designers when they followed me & I still follow a few from before but the only ones who I really want are my current & would be customers.
Since completion to 100% for a new store includes the need to like a number of products, I’ve always assumed it was generally new designers liking my products and was, therefore meaningless. Now there’s a worry about it because I never thought about the copying angle.
