Zrank Staying at 3

[PetStar]

Hi, what will "jump" my store to 4 on zrank? I just opened a niche shop (I have two others) and created the banner, profile info, 12 products and a started categories and collections. I thought my zRank would have gone to 4 by now. Does anyone have insight on thes/ Thank you in advance!

@PetStar 

Once you complete all the items on the list under your Zrank, with the exception of the media requirement, your Zrank should go to a 4.  It may take a day or two as indexing seems slow right now.

Thank you! 😃

I just watched a video created by Zazzle (from 2015) where they said keeping the titles varied is important for zrank to be moved up. Can this be an issue? I have the same descriptor in the title -- only changing the name of the design (i.e. cat, dog). I realized for setting up my other two  stores the zrank got to 4 even when i didn't complete all the items on the list (made only two collections in one and still got a 7 zrank).

If that store made it up to a 7 without any sales I would love to know more....

In the last year or so I've noticed that it does take completing all those bits to get to a 4.  Earlier in my time with Zazzle, I believe that I remember that simply creating a new store gave it a rank of 4.  But the last 2 stores I created, I had to complete the items on the list before I made a 4.

I've had stores only 95% rank up to a 4 recently.

I aso created a new store last year and it took a while before I got a zRank 4. This store has less than 300 products now (I think) and I only make sales there once in a while. For some reason it’s zRank 5. Lol

if anyone’s here at zRank 10, please share how you did it. 😁

a few things to watch for. Not sure if it's still true but a while ago I read that having the exact same title and tags on a product can result in one of the two not being indexed by search. Don't remember if that was referring to Z marketplace search or search engine searches (Google etc). Also make sure your descriptions are not spammy sounding and more natural descriptions. Example: my beauty business card is so beautiful you'll love it. As opposed to: this beauty business card is designed with big red lips and has a classic modern business card layout.

Hope that helps in some small way

Try uploading all the required media items.

Thanks @shellifitz and @PacifierCity ! My zrank just got a 4 this morning 🙂

I have 4 shops and they are ALL at 3 or below and will not budge. I have one shop that has been at 3 after months of actively trying to improve it! I have completed everything to 100%, routinely share, and have been placing ads to bring visitors. I have had the account for around 8 years. I have made a few sales here and there. I've put 20 hours a week on this for 3 months and nothing. Please - any new suggestions would be so appreciated!

Yeah I have one that has 300 products and is stuck at 3. I have a store with less products and only a little more than half the opening list done and its a 5 or 6. So I have no idea. my main store lost a point again recently for who knows why? but I try not to give it too much thought. sales are pretty good, but its frustrating because we haven't really been given much insight about what the z rank really even is.

Hi, I just opened a niche store and within 2 days, 95% and no sales my zrank = 4. While my other store has been a 5 for 2 years now with consistent sales, earned a PRO status didn't move it to 6. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated to move it up to 6 or 7. thanks, this is the store link https://www.zazzle.com/store/sheindesigns

Hi, I am noob here. Can anyone tell me if z-rank 3 is considered bad?

Thanks

Check out my store if you like. It is called Big-inside-designs😄

Why does my zRank matter?

As Zazzle's Creator community continues to grow, we are constantly looking for ways to improve our customers' experience and highlight the best stores suited to them. zRank gives us a way to showcase those stores that have put a lot of time and effort into creating a rich and engaging user experience.

There are also a few added benefits* for your store on Zazzle:

• Your store will appear, and have preference, as a suggested search result when searching.
• Your store will appear, and have preference, in the Creator Store search Filter - the links which appear in the left-hand navigation bar for narrowing results in marketplace search.

*Your store must have a zRank of 4 or above to have these features enabled
