Türkiye is a restricted country, no one's profile is visible here, it is not possible to search properly, but if you know the name of the profile, you can search by adding /ca/, that is, we cannot see what people are selling worldwide.

This is irrelevant. People around the world can see and find your assets as soon as you add correct titles and correct keywords to your assets. But still, you have to know that your assets will be in competition with millions of other assets. The chances of being found are minimal. The chances only augment with more assets in your portfolio.

Check the replies to your preview posts. You got good answers there. You got recommendations to change the titles and keywords to something more descriptive of the image, and not your feelings or the techniques used. 

 

There is no way for you to know how many people viewed your assets. And with such a small portfolio, you can't expect a huge success. Stock is about many pictures of high quality with correctly assigned keywords and titles. Keywords and titles need to be buyer-oriented. You need to anticipate what people are searching for if you want to get a first-page appearance.

  • Stock is a global assets business, not an art gallery.  
  • Adobe connects content creators with millions of potential customers all over the world.  
  • Even if you live in a restricted region like Turkey, there are plenty of other fish in the sea. 

 

Customers come to Stock searching for content they can use in commercial projects like magazines, posters, product packaging, videos, and merchandise.  If you don't label your work properly, nobody anywhere will see it. That's a lost sales opportunity for you and Adobe Stock.

 

Examine your artwork as a Stock customer would, not as an art critic.  

Find the main keywords that best describe your subject so potential customers can find your work in web searches.

 

This one: 

https://stock.adobe.com/ca/contributor/207272937/fatih-sezer-uzun-art?asset_id=1477663874

Girl Sitting on a Wooden Bridge, Backlight by a Spiral Orange Sun (painting).

 

Nobody cares which tools you used. That's of no interest to Stock customers and a violation of Stock Terms.

Eliminate all references to product brand names: CS6, Photoshop & Procreate from keywords, titles or descriptions.

Good luck.

This title is completely useless in terms of a potential Buyer finding your image:

"V For Vendetta V For Vendetta: It Took a Long Time to Draw and paint a Character Whose Philosophy I Fell in Love with, But It Was Worth It I Think"

Have you read the help pages that describe how to enter titles and keywords?

You have no way of knowing how many views your assets have received. Only sales are reported, not views. Use the keywords on your images to search for them in the Buyer portal, stock.adobe.com. This will give you an idea of how much competition there is. If a Buyer isn't seeing your image on the first few pages of the search results, it is unlikely to ever be sold.

Nice images Fatih. But 1) You need hundreds of images in this game 2) You don't tell in the caption what the the images is about and you don't tell they are drawings, paintings, watercolors and so on. 3) I'm not sure microstock is the right forum for this kind of art.
