Personally, I don't pay much attention to visits. What I worry about are my sales, and my sales have been up. :3

Same here, the visit counter on the store can be so eratic, all I know is that over the last month or so my sales have gone waaaay up, that's what counts.Grin

Here visits really go up lately. I wish sales would go up in the same way but with christmas ahead I think this will happen soon as well.

I have noticied we are higher in search engine listings. Zazzle is really pushing the advertising for us. I noticed a lot of my listings from my stores are higher up on Google's listing! I wouldn't worry about the visits so much - the sales are most important!

I, too, have noticed a considerable loss in product views just when I was starting to make gains. I think it's partly due to the new zazzle bar and also the new zazzle layout.

I think its the changes to Google Base. I used to get a lot of views via Google Base that correlated with my views on Zazzle's site. These numbers however did not translate to increased sales

Like the others, I pay minimal attention to the number of visits. My sales are climbing steadily, last month we had well over the $1,000.00 level for volume bonus and are well on our way to that again this month. As long as sales totals have not fallen off dramatically, I would not be too concerned.

Agreed. Although I do pay attention to visits and have noticed that they are down, particularly pages per visit (might be the ease of seeing a section design without clicking on the word), but sales are up and they're more important. Whether the visits are correct, I'm not sure.

We have a newish store (YoWangdu)-- since May -- and our sales seem to be strongly negatively affected by Google dropping our personal Google Base Feed. Google said that they don't want duplicates since Zazzle is now supposed to be uploading the feeds for us.

I know Zazzle has done this at least once, but am unhappy to find that Zazzle captures many fewer of my products than I was able to upload myself when I did the Google Base feeds myself. (I have 300 products. I could upload around 260. Zazzle originally uploaded 150 or so.)

Worse is that Zazzle does not seem to be uploading our products periodically, as was indicated that they would -- I think I heard they would update once a month. My products listed by Zazzle in Google Base are down to 80 something.

I'm interested to hear that some of you ProSeller folks are doing better than ever. There's clearly a lot to learn, but still can't help but think that the Google Base Feed problem is messing with my little sales :-( I called Zazzle this morning but the response so far is a form email that doesn't address the problem. Has anyone talked to Zazzle about this issue? I'm still trying...

Always appreciate any advice on how to boost sales, and glad you all are here!
