Typical Time Frame for photos to appear in searches

How long does it usually take for approved photos to appear in Fotolia and Adobe Stock?  My photos that were approved on Thursday, September 14 don't appear when I search for them on both web sites. (It's now Tuesday, September 19.)  I'm a new contributor, so I don't know what's typical and when to consider it a problem. Thank you!

    When you try searching the image with the titles, the keywords are matched as given by the contributor on the image and your search as a result, it pulls up all the images of different contributors and not just yours. So, in this case, image number is the unique identifier.Even make sure you include all the appropriate words in your keyword list. Also, if someone clicks on one of your images they can click on your name below and can check your portfolio.For example, see the screenshot:

    Hi Joanne,

    Generally, once the image is approved, it should be visible on both the websites( Adobe Stock and Fotolia). If you can help me with the image numbers I can check it on my end and get back to you.

      Hi Twarita, 

      I just checked by entering the image numbers instead of the titles, and found that the images are there.  Why don't they show up when I search for them by title?
