Bryan Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 My views fell away to nearly nothing yesterday and a bhz check today confirms that I have been cast out to the wilderness. Hope this is a glitch, but suspect not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin P Wilson Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 My views fell away to nearly nothing yesterday and a bhz check today confirms that I have been cast out to the wilderness. Hope this is a glitch, but suspect not Perhaps but my base test search (not bhz) only moved around 4-6 places on pages 3 & 4. No more than if new content had been added by a higher ranked contributor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broad Norfolk Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Mine haven't moved. I would welcome a re-rank just to see if my previous 'best' pseudonym would recover from the relegated position of Page 30!! I sense the long term effect of this is now impacting on my sales results.

gvallee Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 No change for me. Gen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Myford Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Based on just a couple of quick searches, so this could be wrong, but I think it is more likely a bug fix or change to the diversity algorithm rather than a re-rank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacecadet Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Hmm. I left one in by accident after the tag weighting scare and I've come up 5 or 6 pages..............and it's a supertag and in the caption. Better delete them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinS Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 No change here using BHZ (with BHZ added to the caption). Other searches look unchanged as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 No real change - I am still on p5 after dropping from p1 in the 5/12 search engine changes - though I have noticed that sometimes I am near the bottom of p5, and occasionally, as today, I am near the top (120 images/page, no RF images, BHZ as the first supertag, BHZ not appearing in the caption or any other keyword) Kumar (the Doc one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DHill Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Haha! I hope Alamy are doing something with the BHZ results, because my pseudos appear in pretty much exact reverse order of success! My biggest selling pseudo, with the most zooms, comes almost at the end. The second most successful pseudo comes a little higher. Highest of all is the one I dump images into when I realise there are plenty of better ones of the main subject on Alamy! I haven't checked BHZ for several months, so I'm not sure if this is a new thing or not. Perhaps an algorithm tweak, changing the weighting of, say, supertags and words in the caption compared with tags, would look like a re-rank? David.

John Mitchell Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 My main pseudo appears to have been promoted to page three from page four. However, I haven't checked BHZ for a long time, so I don't know when that happened. I'm always amazed to see Jesus still reigning in the #1 position in BHZ searches. Divine intervention?

Bryan Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 That last views count was for a Sunday (Doh!!) Views and zooms pretty good yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bell Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Something has happened, maybe not a re-rank, but something is definitely going on.

Pearl Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Well my BHZ image for my best pseudo has gone from p 1 (pre 05/12) to p8 (post 05/12 to p 23 today!!!

Just looked to see where I put BHZ and find it is in the Caption and is also a Supertag. Originally it was in the Caption and Essential keywords and promise you I have not altered it since the change. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
