Questions On Keywording And Searches

Hello, apologies if there is a dedicated thread to this topic. I did search before posting this.

Question/Concern #1: When I do a search for artist and use the exact name I am registered under, only 17 of 37 images show up. Why?

Question #2: (as an example) I sponsored "childhood" so my holga toy camera images would show up. Checking on that a few hours later they were gone. Is this method of showing up in results a continuous game to play?

Thank you. Please feel free to direct me to any other existing discussions.

Regards from Colorado

it takes 24 hours for the search to absorb your stuff. so that 17 might be those. it helps if you have your own name in the words if you haven't.

childhood is a common word, there may be 10,000 other people with that word, you go in rotation. if your logged in, it will show you there if not try it again. logged out and you'll be there at some point.

showing up in the search is hard because it's based on sales. to get sales you have to advertise outside and show people there.

be sure to add plurals if you haven't the search doesn't know from them. use commas, no spaces to fit more in.

you'll want to add a lot more words than you have, what you have now is tiny.

Hi Mike, I guess I'll wait a couple of days to see...the images have been in the system since Saturday. I know that my keywording will be a continual process. My first intent is to direct people here through my website (HolgaToyCameraPhotography.com) - which I'm working on now. Thanks!
