MariaJ Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 When checking myAlamy just now for October 20, I saw on the graph I had a new zoom. However when I checked my most recent views/zooms to see which image it was, no zooms were reported. Changing the dates I figured out the zoom was from October 9. It wasn't there last time I looked last week, and I don't get that many zooms with my small port, so I notice when I do get one. Has anyone else had a zoom reported a while after it happened?

spacecadet Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 There are threads on this. Some zooms get updated late. I'd never had it but I got two this morning. Edit: false alarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abiyoyo Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Three this morning for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losdemas Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Three old'uns from first week of October now reported this morning for me, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Richmond Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 2 older ones from first and second week in October for me as well. Looks like they've tweaked the search and found some of the missing ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokie Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 6 for me this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin P Wilson Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Not just zooms - I have just revised my tracking spreadsheet (only for October so far) and most days had an increase in views - some days more than doubled the count. I will take it back to 1 September later. The moving average now better represents the effort I have been putting in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

York Photographer Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Same here, zooms jumped up. I'm guessing its data from a few days ago when it was down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin P Wilson Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Just checked and views have been revised for about the last 4 weeks. Prior to that they seem unchanged - can't say about zooms as mine are too sporadic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnB Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Still no change for me. CTR for this and last month are the lowest they've been for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert M Estall Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 Sales are popping up nicely but the CTR is still critically low, it's never huge but at least it usually hovers comfortably above Alamy average. A clutch of zooms reported to-day which looks like catch-up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin P Wilson Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 CTR for this and last month are the lowest they've been for years. Same here. Though sales are very good this month for my main pseudonym (as well as my views and zooms), my CTR is only half of what it normally used to be. For the love of God, I can't figure out how the CTR rating works Cheers, Philippe I gave up trying to figure CTR and Ranking out years ago. I just try to think about what might sell and let all that other stiuff over which I have no control and even less knowledge take care of itself. I work on the basis if I can do the right things it will work itself out in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariaJ Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share Posted October 21, 2014 So, views as well as zooms popping up. I'll have to take a look at the views. Thanks for your answers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokie Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Yes, another zoom this morning and the highest amount of rolling views for 6 weeks or more. John. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLSI Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 A lot of new UCOs, zooms, and views have showed up in All of Alamy for the week of 4 - 10 October: UCO zooms views CTR sampled 10/15: 35,867 21,209 6,588,004 0.32 sampled 10/22: 42,283 31,836 7,948,915 0.40 I've left sales off because they're always slow to show up, so the increase (and there was an increase) isn't particularly meaningful. I've been routinely checking a sample week every month shortly after the week ended and again just before it falls off of All of Alamy (we only have access to one year's data). Over the course of a year, a handful of UCOs, zooms, and views mysteriously appear, but never anything like this difference. The updated stats are now very much in line with the sample week from early September. Clearly the folks at Alamy have restored much if not all of the data that had gone missing.
