Earlier in the week it appeared my LU issue was resolved, but LU is now back with a vengeance! Every search term now suffixed with LU. No wonder there is no or minimal response from Alamy, this time the upgrade issues are likely too complex for them to resolve. I suppose, a bit like Covid, we will simply have to learn to live with it. Or until it becomes too much of an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I am certainly masking myself off from Measures by not looking at it too often now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nodvandigtid Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Measures still has glitches. Zoom on pseudonym summary not showing on individual summary (it is clickable through the pseudonym summary though) For what it is worth - no LU, nothing over 100 (but that has been the case for some time).

meanderingemu Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 what is happening with the Search. had 2 zooms this morning of one of my most successful editorial subject, but surprise which images came out, so had a look My Alamy shows 105 images in results. Did the same search i get 1235 image, how did someone only get 105? this is not a normal image per page number, and Editorial gets about 1000, creative 200+ also the images that got displayed have never been licenced, and 3 images that were licenced multiple times are not included.... Note all images have SuperTag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note all images have SuperTag This is what worries me. The new search seems to be restricting/limiting returns and therefore reducing the incidence of image finding. My views have dramatically decreased (zooms too) and I feel the whole lot is being lost in a huge black hole. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a complete newbie when it comes to interpreting Measures, especially after these changes. Does it record whether the search was in All, Ultimate, Vital, Foundation or Editorial?

I keep getting caught out by that, they just stay there for ever unless you clear them, bound to catch other people out as well I would have thought.

Searching in 'All' retains the ranking, Not at all sure about Vital & Uncut but probably there too (I'll ignore Ultimate & Foundation). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broad Norfolk Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Now here is a strange one. My views yesterday were 277 on my main pseudo and my two smaller pseudos were roughly in proportion to what they were against the main one prior to April last. This is how it was, but for weeks and weeks up to yesterday my main pseudo has been attracting less than 100 views per day. Extremely odd, but with all that is going on you have to consider this a 'glitch'!! I used to average one or two zooms per day as well and I have not had any for days - just rows of zeros. Consequence for CTR is that it has plummeted to it's lowest level for years. Just my observations, but not happy times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReeRay Posted July 21, 2022 Author Share Posted July 21, 2022 I'm convinced measures is still in a mess and reporting falsely. Yesterday I had 3 separate searches reporting 5 images each out of 100 for "woman alone beach". All were different therefore theoretically I have 15 images on the first page. But I do not! I have 6 images and none of them feature in the 15 when using "All". So, how come measures reports 15 images of mine on the first page that are not there? Beyond me for sure 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
View42 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Could it be that Measures is reporting one line of 100 for each page viewed in a search and not necessarily in page order. Hence, different images on each 'search'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
