Rolf Adlercreutz Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 Has Alamy stopped doing re-ranks? It seams it was a long time since the last one. Rolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bell Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 My "BHZ" image is stuck on a page but keeps moving about on that page so I believe that you are moved around in the rankings on a weekly or even daily basis automatically now depending on the performance of your port.

Allan I would imagine that the whole thing is automated now with 24 hour database updates across the board? It would seem odd that when the software updates CTR, sales etc that those results don't go straight into the search algorithms at the same time. I'd assume that one the purposes of the changes to the systems of late would be to streamline the search process and that might be one of them.

Rolf Nearly as long since we last saw you here, Rolf! Relating directly to BHZ, I have two images (for two of my three pseudos) which I only ever check when someone starts a thread such as this! My main pseudo image remains in exactly the same position as in May 2018 (page 4) and the other ('trash' pseudo) is within a very few places on page 13. Including RF and viewing 100 images per page, these positions have changed minimally since July 2017. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mitchell Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 (edited) I hadn't checked BHZ for several months, and I now don't recognize a lot of the images currently coming up in the search results (Relevant). My main pseudo appears to have been evicted from page three and now lives on page four. At one time, it was a happy resident of page one. But those days have passed... P.S. 2nd and 3rd (weakest) pseudos are on pages 5 and 12 respectively. Don't think there has been much change there.

gvallee Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 No change for me for a long time. Still on page 7 for main pseudo and page 2 on secondary pseudo. Gen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobD Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Never did see the point of re-ranks as they used to be. You could spend lots of time keywording and captioning well and hopefully making sales to improve your rank and positioning to have months of work taken away in a re-rank. Much better to have ranking on a weekly or even daily basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put BHZ as a supertag in one RM image for every pseudo you have. Wait a day. Search "BHZ" for relevant RM images (I use 120/page). Find the page the image is on. The higher, the better your rank. My best pseudo remains on page 3, second pseudo on page 10, and my dregs pseudo is on page 12. Has been for more than a year now. Image position can move around a bit, but rarely more than a line difference. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble is, if some contributors have left theirs as normal while others have also upgraded BHZ to a supertag then the whole thing will be superfluous! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
