I hoping for the same. if its not then authors have to cry on back stage. But I believe in envato. lets hope
In my 7 years career in envato this is the one hell of thing i donât like about envato. I hope they remove that banner for authors sake
(blue graph - 2018 year)
Good month, especially given that last AE project I uploaded in November, and last Premiere Pro - in January. Lost February and March, because of my boycott of best sellers sorting. But things are going better than I expected.
I donât share all your hopes, guys. Itâs pretty clear that Envato Team are going to run their business without asking authors. And itâs actually understandable. Itâs not charitable foundation. I have my own hope⌠I hope that in future I will be less depended on other companies.
UPD:
Today authors upload 118 items per week. Nice! Active actions without any âhopesâ.
Last month I shared on this thread, that it was my best month so far with sales. This month, it lowered to about 40%âŚ
3 days without a sale, also referrals stop to work for last month
Yes, I agree, it´s not charity, but they earn money from one main source: authors. Without authors there are no items to sell and the final result would be no customers and no money at all. So they should take into consideration authors aswell.
I wonder what else Envato found to survive.
Yes, I agree. They should!
But should they take us serious if⌠we do nothing. Many authors donât like Elements. So what do they make to stop it? Majority nothing, or even joined Elements. Support the thing which they hate.
For such kind audience I would come up with a big banner on top⌠wait a minute, sounds familiar! And after that authors ask for âanswersâ. LOL⌠while in the same time bring huge amount of visitors to Envato market, where people can see this banner.
Envato doesnât need to ask authors, because they know, authors will swallow everything.
So bad but so realistic, I hope (even if you don´t ) all this changes for the better. There´s nothing much to say.
Something needs to be done for this situation. Do you really like the fact that the project you are working on Day and Night is sold for only $ 0.01 on Elements?
We have a proverb here.
Whatâs wrong with one hand
There are two Elin Voices.
The main idea is how much do you earn in total. For me elements are at ~60% rate from VH earnings.
And the main problem right now is the search engine settings, not Elements.
But even so sales are around average with minus sign. New items could create positive difference, but itâs useless to upload now
Itâs a very bad situation for someone whoâs got your monthly earnings here. Why is everyone silent? why not everyone is starting a campaign.
Do you know my monthly income?))) VH earnings donât drop, but Elements do growth constantly for me
There is a whole long thread about this. After experiment will be over we will get new category page design and then we can see how it affects sales (from envato staff)
I hope we see.
I have good sales this month, especially this week is the best week
but the biggest question when the new category will be implemented?
New day, new record for me. 4 days in a row no sales!!!
6 days without sales, just yesterday got one sale. itâs a really huge drop in sales for me. usually, my sales stop in a month for 2 days or one day and a half, but this time 6 days this is really big wast.
Actually, I will wait until Envato implementing the new category, if the earning stay low, itâs the time to move forward find a new solution for this situation, no time for waiting after that.
