As soon as the month is exactly halfway through sales take downturn every month without fail. Why ?
The same thing happens to me too,almost every month,im confident it has something to do with search engine changes or something,so some authors start selling and some disappear.
That isn’t good or fair if true. Surely it should be left to buyers to decide ?

I’m not saying Envato picks different authors that will sell good and vice versa,im saying that there are probably scheduled search engine changes throughout the month to create balance,on some other markets this happens a lot more often,every 6-7 days i have bursts of sales and i can clearly see that my items position well in the search results,and then silence again.I think this is a good thing.
EDIT: So it is not a good thing to copy- paste your tags and descriptions
I have an average of 15-25 sales per month, upload 3-5 tracks per month.
share links to Facebook, Twitter, make a video on YouTube, Vimeo and Dailymotion, just registered to Soundcloud. in general, I have more than 100 referrals. and is the result.
created a facebook group here can share their links to your music tracks:
I have yet to see a steady month in sales, it’s either the first part of the month is great and the second is completely dead, or the other way around. I wonder why
For the last six months every month have been horrible.
If I get 10 sales for a new track I feel lucky but it just earns me about $100 which is not good by any standard.
To make it even worse, when the new tracks get sales the old ones stop selling so the total somehow remains the same.
Are we getting closer to the “It’s not worth it” point? Maybe some of you guys are already there, just think about it. How many hours you’ve put into your music and how much did you get paid for it? I’m sure some people could get better hourly rates in an Asian factory. It’s your hobby I know but for the buyers it’s business.

I passed that stage a long time ago!

If most of us worked out how much we earned in proportion to the actual work we put in, it would probably amount to just a few cents/maximum a few dollars an hour.
For me though, it’s part hobby as well as business and there’s always that hope of getting bigger sales (i.e. more top tier licenses sold). Aside from the monetary element, as an artist, it is always rewarding to see your music placed in different media and know that it is potentially being heard by millions of people around the world…even if we ain’t getting rich off of it!!
