tarsierspectral Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 I have a pseudo with 16 images in it. Performs poorly, only sold one pic over 6 years. Has CTR of 0%. Should I delete it or transform the images to main pseudo or just leave it? Does it matter what I do with it with such a low number of images??

York Photographer Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Maybe adding them to a better one might help, 16 extra images can't dilute the CTR of the new pseudo much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Jenkins Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Have you checked the quality of the 16 pics in terms of saleability anyway? And your keywording of those 16? It MAY be possible that their poor showing for you may be nothing at all do do with the pseudonym they are sitting under as, unless I am horribly wrong, this has NO impact whatsoever on the criteria that a picture searcher would be aware of? They go purely on keywords?Pseudonyms CAN help you analyse in terms of what sells and what doesn't - they don't influence the initial search. nj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dov makabaw Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 16 images is no statistical consequence. It represents 0.35% of your images. Incorporating them in your main pseudo will give them the same search ranking as the rest of your collection. Good option. Deleting images serves no purpose other than to ensure that they never will sell. Bad option. Food for thought. How about transferring the one image that has sold into your main portfolio - who knows it may sell again. Question. Are all your other images performing? If not how about transferring the non performing pix into your non performing pseudo? This should improve the ranking of your residual collection in time. Good luck dov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarsierspectral Posted August 3, 2013 Author Share Posted August 3, 2013 Thanks everyone. I transferred half to may main pseudo and deleted the other half. dov, that's interesting idea about transferring non performing images to to non performing pseudo. I will think about that.
