One place where views won't help is here in the forums. You may get 100 views from us today but there is nt much of a chance of any of us buying artwork from a fellow member. (It does happen, but not often.) You need to promote your work where it will be seen by folks who might buy it -- friends, family, co-workers, cat lovers, vet offices. I do agree with Mike about the effects you use. You've set 1000 views as a goal of some sort, when even if you get 5,000 views from people who aren't looking to buy your art, it doesn't matter.
