Greetings to the forum participants. There have been no sales for three weeks now. I’m only in my eighth month on Adobe Stock, sales are still irregular. But there has never been such a long delay in sales before. I would like to know what this is connected with.

I attach a screenshot of the sales graph below.

By some estimates, you need 6,000+ assets to generate a steady income with Stock.
A diverse portfolio will be seen by more customers.
Are you promoting yourself on Social Media?
Did you share your Stock Collection with your Adobe Portfolio website & Behance page to generate more visibility?

Hope that helps.

How did things develop for you? Did sales return? And if so, after how long? On April 17, my sales also suddenly stopped completely. Before that, at least every other day, something was sold. I'm in a panic, I don't understand what's going on. I continue to upload works, but nothing else happens. Is there any point in continuing? Or is this an algorithm glitch?

This topic from 2023 is very old. Most participants are long gone now.

What is this number now? The last time it was 6000, my sales have dropped a lot too.

So what? Adobe adds week for week new assets. So that means less sales for a single contributor as the database gets more divers. If the number of customers does not increase at the same pace, or your number of assets increase at the same pace, your part of the cake gets smaller. Combine that with a slow year start, and you have decreased sales.

The more assets you have, the more sales you will have, given that the assets are all of good quality..

This is all normal. Sales come and go and currently I think they are slower as many have bought the assets they needed for their use for the end of the year. At least in our office, we won't need much stock assets these days. Less buyers, less sales.

If your account has not been suspended, it simply means that Buyers aren't searching for or finding assets in your keyword categories. Review your titles and keywords and edit them if necessary to make them more detailed and representative of your images, and continue to upload new content regularly.

I mainly use the keys that Adobe offers, and I come up with the name myself, trying to take into account the main keys. I did this from the very beginning, and there were purchases. And if I was blocked, should I somehow see it?

Yes, if your account was suspended, you would see a banner on your homepage indicating that change in status. The fact that you can still see the statistics graph and can still upload means that your account is still active.
