How come I am getting HUNDREDS of views of my items that are actually much cheaper and no sales, no questions , no nothing other than MOST of my items getting hundreds of “Views”. Does Bonanza just put “Views” up to fake us out?? I am offering Free shipping on most items and certainly getting the Views as it says. I can’t believe No one has even asked a question if I am getting that many views??

Thanks for reaching out @Rockemstockum and sorry to hear that sales have not met expectations. Item view counts on Bonanza are updated in real time and are based on buyer visits as well as your own personal views. If you are looking at view counts on your item stats page, make sure that you are not including views from search crawler activity, which is activity by search bots, Google Organic’s robots, etc. You can update your view settings at the top of the item stats page (set the drop down to “does not include” search crawler activity and update the view). If you do not include search crawler activity, you will get a better idea of item view counts from live humans. Keep in mind that each time you view your own items, it will be included in the view count!

I see that your chat box is not open and/or activated.
(It’s easier and faster to ask questions via the chat box than b-mailing)
I’d also recommend that you change your titles to NON-CAPS.
Google doesn’t like all caps. Just a hint… and Good Luck

Hello ,
do you pay for advertising or these organic views ? I have noticed that when you have organic traffic the conversion rate is much higher then running ppc ad’s . My webstore views are `100% organic and i would say out of every 100 visits we will convert 2-5 sales . My husband is a e-commerce specialist so he helps me alot on getting our name out there without have to shell out any cash .

No,.. I have not paid for any ads as I would have thought that if people are looking that much, someone would buy. My sister has just started a T-shirt business on ETSY and in 3 weeks she has sold over $400. of T-Shirts and that is without any ads or even promoting to friends on FB or anywhere else. I had one item yesterday that had 488 views, but not one inquiry , question or sale. I don’t get it. Thanks for your comment to me though.
