boinkeee2000Participant
after 2 months and dismal page views I finally got my first RF sale. much thanks to art and MLR family for leading me down this rabbit hole. I know this is small potatoes to most but the first of anything is always a great feeling.
The song is a flamenco version of “what child is this”. im sure the sale was due to the season but ill take what i can get. I was also about to lower all my pricing (this was $99) due to the dismal views but im glad i didnt…heres the song
KubedParticipantCongrats man!The first of anything is a great feeling,as you said.
And it’s a great track,the reverb gives it a warm,”live” feeling.
Hope you get many more sales soon!boinkeee2000ParticipantThanks Kubed, this game is full of doubts and second guesses thus these tiny wins help keep my sanity in check. good thing i miked it since i was contemplating on just recording thru my classicals internal pickup due to laziness…
ChuckMottParticipantCongratulations on the first sale. Nice tone from the guitar! I’m glad you mic’d also.
boinkeee2000Participantthanks chuck, ive recorded both ways but a miked nylon string guitar sounds 10x better 🙂
Art MunsonKeymasterCongrats boinkeee2000, just in time for the Holidays!
boinkeee2000ParticipantThanks Art, glad to contribute to the cause…your service and sincerety of it all is priceless
woodsdenisParticipantWell done called “Greensleeves” in this part of the world.
boinkeee2000Participantthanks woodsdenis
AbbyGuestCongratulations! Such a great feeling. When I saw my first sale I had to do a double take 🙂
boinkeee2000ParticipantThanks Abby, so far ive noticed the difficulty of getting views more less a sale for me on this particular rf site, so i did a double take as well…not sure if its just me but i was pretty much invisible (view wise) for the peak month of november…
KubedParticipant@boinkee2000: if you are talking about P5 site,views aren’t accurate.All of my tracks that sold for the first time there had 1 view (in rare occasion 2 views or even 0 views!).
If your track gets more than 1 sell,then somehow the view numbers change to 30,50,100+ etc.
So,i wouldn’t worry much about views there.boinkeee2000Participantthanks for the info kubed, I assumed it was due to oversaturation and being so far back in the search list. I though AS would get my first sale as it has more activity view wise….PT on the other hand is a mystery, just cant grasp the percentage ups and downs analytics, if its based on a daily rotating cycle or something…
ChuckMottParticipantNo I wouldn’t put much stock in pt’s view system either. But I did not that 20 views in P5 is the sweet spot for me, I.e. I don’t have anything there that says it has 20 or more views that hasn’t sold at least once. I don’t know if those views popped up after the fact though.
