Has anyone else noticed a drop in Adobe Stock downloads over the past week?

For me, sales were fairly consistent before, with downloads coming throughout the day. But during the last 7 days, my downloads have noticeably decreased. For the past 3 days especially. and most of them seem to appear later in the evening.

I’m wondering if this is happening to other contributors as well, or if there has been any recent change in Stock search visibility, demand, or reporting.

Would appreciate hearing about your experience over the last week.

Thanks!

That’s not a big enough sampling to be alarmed about. Stock is a global service with millions of customers all over the planet. You can’t control what time of day people make purchases. Too many outside factors can effect sales.

Power outages, sun spots, space debris, climate events, meteor showers, communications & internet failures, etc.

No drop recently on my end, although August did see a little downtrend, but somewhat expected for Summer. To understand your data better, two weeks is not a good indicator. What does your 12 week trend show, and what about the last 6 and 12 months?

Converting to percentages is the best way to analyze the data.

Sorry, but this type of question is often asked and we cannot answer it. There are too many factors as to why a contributors sales drop.
