i am sick and tired of no views showing on my ebay listings

Here’s an excerpt of eBay’s announcement where it explains what non-human traffic is – including bots – When another seller asked if the change would impact placement in search results, since it was their understanding that the number of views a listing receives may positively affect placement in search returns, a moderator replied that there would be no effect on search placement because the algorithm wasn’t changing. In answer to a FAQ, “Does this mean I’ve been overcharged for Promoted Listings or selling fees,” eBay said no – “Listings’ view counts are never used in the calculation of any fees, including Promoted Listings fees and ad rates.”īut the question came up anyway in a thread on the eBay boards: “I understand that listing views don’t impact PLStandard and PL Express fees, but PL Advanced is based on CLICKS, and isn’t a click required to “view” a listing? So, wouldn’t each click BE a view?” Sellers will still be able to access data for the past 2 years in a new listing traffic history report.

“The change you’ll see in your page view numbers is a result of a new way of counting views that filters out more non-human traffic.”ĮBay also said it would begin displaying a 30-day rolling count of listing views instead of a lifetime count. “To give you clearer insight into your listings’ performance, we’re changing to a more accurate way of counting page views, and updating how we display traffic data on your listings,” eBay said.ĮBay said that there was no change to the number of buyers on eBay, nor was there a change in the number of buyers visiting a seller’s listings. It announced the change as part of the Spring Seller Update published on Wednesday.

EBay is changing how it counts page views on sellers’ listings to be more accurate by filtering out more “non-human” traffic.
