Listing page views from outside of ebay have DROPPED for me. Anyone else?

Someone messaged me on ebay. I posted this on the discussion board. They said they were afraid to post, so they sent me a message.

Their problem started on the 18th as well. This is a big problem guys.

Relativity. I've been listing a lot, and doing a lot of other changes to compensate for all this. So it's really hard to judge. They've increased a little due to my hard work, but no where near where they would have normally.

And I found another one

On a few accounts my graphs look the same where outside traffic is half to the 25 mark. But its only a graphic to me, sales have been doing well and up, nothing has changed except the lines on the graph

@james13v Don't you think it could be a coincidence too ??

It could be the information is wrong, i never put my whole trust in eBay and Paypal for anything, im not starting here with these charts and graphs. I just worry about sales

Seems like a great tool to torcher yourself with!

Wouldn't worry too much. It's all about the ££££ rather then stats. Too much overthinking.

We just only passed the summer period where sales tend to be very quite across the board (at least for us in the UK), so I would assume they will pick up again soon, with the holiday period approaching.

If it doesn't I would just assume the graph is glitchy. Wouldn't be a suprise to me since ebay and paypal are renowned for it now.

Well, my sales are down. They were going up and up, then bam, went down maybe 25%, and that's with me trying even harder.

Coincidentally, 3 people experience a 75% drop in the same type of views on the same exact day? No.

I was worrying about sales, which is why I checked the graphs, and saw reasons for why I've been having issues with my sales

Have you had an increase in competitors?

It could be just a coincidence that your sales are little down right now , is what they may of meant, it could be for many other reasons. So far it doesnt seem that a lot of members are being effected by drops in traffic, it may just be a glitch and the data is not even correc t

sorry , I said that in reference to another of your post.. the one where I suggested you to learn how to search and where you mentioned that I was silly.

found on ebay website in seller hub discussion :

"We recently improved the way we calculate traffic and page views. We now count eBay app views as traffic from within eBay instead of traffic from outside of eBay. Also, when a buyer clicks See other items on your listing page, we now consider those impressions as coming from search.

Could just be ebay spending less on Google Shopping

There are a few answers since you said the 18th. Normal reviews they say is.on the 20th but have seen on the 18th mails from ebay about it. Did you became below standard? More cases and/or messages?
Than there is the fact that ebay only cares about their own profits. So who pays in ads nowadays will have more sales. Since june is that new add feature available.. anywas how many products do you have listed? More important what do you sell. If you need any help give me a pm
