Am I glad I saw this, I uploaded one a few hours ago and another one scheduled for very soon so I'm doing the same with the one from earlier. and moving the next one..thank you for noticing, I didn't!
I did wonder though why my stats didn't show anyone coming from the category I uploaded earlier, no searches at all. Now I know!
I love this thread!
PS Lucky fuckers that did show on the updates and have been there now for ages...
Updates aren't working again this morning.

Is it just me or did anyone else lose an update? I posted something on Thursday night and now there is no trace of it. I was in a rush so I didn't verify that it was up but I know I listed it. Gone.

Are anyone else's hits extremely low today? Maybe it's just me. I've double checked my updates and they are okay. This week has been very slow for me though.

I had a great start to the month and now no sales for just over a week, its frustrating cause I had such a good month last month haha

Well that's odd because me too Pixiie, first two weeks great, better than August. Then this last week, very quiet. Same amount of hits though which is good but just a lot less sales.
Strange right? I mean I don't expect a certain level of sales, it's only my third month but I don't like it when the hits are coming but sales drop, makes me think I'm doing something wrong when I'm doing the same as always!
Still I suppose it's better than the hits dropping along with the sales, that would be worse...
C4S is very puzzling sometimes!

definitely, I have noticed a pattern that the middle of the month seems to be quieter for me than the start and end, no idea why, very odd

That pattern seems similar to me too although I have less full months to go on!
I think what we are offering are for the most part, impulse buys. A few dollars. I keep my uploads the same whether it's end of month, start, middle or whatever. There are way too many other variables for me to think about without trying to upload more at busy times. I did pull a couple of uploads the last two days having said that but only because the updates were not working properly and I didn't want to waste anything!

I just started in August and did pretty good I thought for just starting. The first two weeks of September, I had already made more than I did in all of August, but this week has been so dead. I have made one sale this week. It is very frustrating.

Hi Ladies!
Been off C4S for 20 days because of other work + have caught myself a boyfriend after being single for a long time :)
Obviously my hits and sales have dropped, but I am pleased to see I've still sold roughly more than 1 clip/day and am still on a few lists. Being a part time clip maker is awesome! Sales even looks better than some weeks in my start up in the beginning of this year when I was uploading every day lol! (I can't believe I managed to do that.) Many of those early clips never sold but of course, it sort of still paid off since I slowly moved towards what kind of clips works for me.
I checked my e-mail though but only had some conversations with annoying custom requesters that just ended up talking and never actually paying for their customs. If they had I would have stepped it up earlier.
Now I am getting back on track, the plan is to upload at least every other day. My biggest trouble working for myself is making and keeping daily and weekly routines, but I will really try to do it this time since planning ahead and creating deadlines for myself really helps me being efficient and consistent in clip making. I also hope to build up a number of clips auto posting so the store is not just sitting there the next time I need some time off.
Updates are broken again this morning! Can't C4S get their shit together with this? This is happening almost every damn morning!

This is getting ridiculous now, I wonder what happens to the clips uploaded that don't show? I mean do they get the front page or category exposure at all? When I had one upload but not show it was in my store but nowhere else and I deleted it so I don't know if it ever would have appeared, at least on the category page.
Best to not upload I think but there is a reason I schedule so I don't have to check this kind of thing - come on C4S sort it please!
It's your daily morning reminder that updates are broken yet again.

Doesn't look quite as messed up as it was before but seriously, WTF???
Has anybody contacted C4S about it? Seems odd that it's recurring so often, usually blips are sorted and then fixed?

My sales this month was awesome the first two weeks but it slow it down last week. I mean between Clips4sale and Niteflirt....my clip sales were really booming but they have slowed down after this weekend.However, I can not wait until October...I love producing my Halloween content.

My update this morning worked eventually, but it took about an hour before it showed in the category, and the main page also seemed to freeze for about an hour, so my first format never showed, at least not on my computer. Then, the video previews didn't work until I made new ones with the preview maker. You just can't trust the clips being posted correctly, and it's time consuming to check that everything works everytime :(

They don't care. Apparently there is a US TV show that allows it so that makes it ok to make fish suffer by being dissolved slowing in acid.
What they should have is a rule on no killing or harming any living creature.

I wonder if C4S's decision to ban animal crushing had anything to do with the response to the Guggenheim's animal torture installation that required the death of various insects (other animals were involved in the installation, but insects are most relevant here.)
https://mobile.nytimes.com/2017/09/25/arts/design/guggenheim-dog-fighting-exhibit.html?smid=fb-nytimes&smtyp=cur&referer=http%3A%2F%2Fm.facebook.com%2F
The timing is interesting. Makes me wonder if the Guggenheim is caving mostly to the credit card companies rather than public outcry.

IMMEDIATE CONTENT BAN & RULE UPDATE - CRUSH CATEGORY
No Crushing - There is to be no crushing of any living or dead animal, insect or fish (Vertebrate or Invertebrate) in any clips, videos or images. Such as, but not limited to: snails, crabs, lobsters, shrimp, crayfish (crawdads), spiders, fish, scorpions, lizards, etc. You may ONLY crush food and/or inanimate objects.
As of September 26, 2017, Clips4Sale.com will no longer allow any living or dead animal, insect, fish (Vertebrate or Invertebrate) etc. to be crushed on our website.
Any studio that currently has this type of content is now in a mandated account review. Stores with more than one clip showing the crushing of a live or dead animal, insect or fish are closed while the account review is being carrried out by staff.
Studios that have been closed due to active crush clips are urged to immediately go into your admin and deactivate any and all crush clips. In addition you must also delete them from the server which can be done on the NEW UPLOADER ADD/DEL FILES page.
Once the clips have been deactivated and removed you can have your account reviewed by contacting Studio Support at: https://support.clips4sale.com
IMPORTANT: Any attempts to bypass this rule and post banned content will result in the immediate closure of your studio and withholding of payout while a management review is carried out on your studio and/or master account.
It is possible that some stores, doing normal food and object crush, were included in the closures due to words used in active clips, ex. Gummy Worms. Please contact Studio Support at: https://support.clips4sale.com if your store is closed and you do not have any of the banned crush clips.

This is weird so bear with me! Yesterday, three of the four clips I uploaded Tuesday were missing from my store. They had uploaded fine Tuesday, shown in my store and yesterday still showed on the category pages yet had gone from my store completely. I emailed C4S and they forwarded it to the tech dept but I just decided to edit a second off the movies and re-upload them. Also I wanted to check there wasn't a problem with the uploads and there wasn't.
So this morning, those clips are all still there. But! The one I uploaded last night had gone from my store! Again it uploaded fine last night, still shows on the cat page but is missing from the store.
This is honestly getting ridiculous now, I don't mind the odd glitch but just lately I'm having to check everything that shouldn't need checking. It's one thing after another and it's driving me nuts.
Is anyone else getting missing clips at all?

So I am asking for some advice, so I recently found a pirate site that is selling videos from c4s. Not only my videos, but many other c4s videos as well. I have done the piracy thing with c4s already. Does anyone know about how long it will take to get this site taken down?

Apologies if this is a really stupid question Bambi and I'm sorry some twat has done this to you. Do pirated videos need to have been purchased or can they be taken from the site without being purchased? Sorry for my stupidity!
It makes me sick that people do this. It's hard enough already.

Hey fetishqueen,
it's videos someone bought and now they are reselling them on another site. But the way they have there site set up I can't really report it to them, so I'm hoping c4s will do something about it.
I'm scared to post a new video as this site has my newer videos, and I know I will be real pissed if I make my Halloween vids now and they also get pirated.
Needless to say, I am beyond irritated and I'm hoping this will get resolved.
Ps No such thing as a stupid question :)

Can you tell who it is that's doing it from your sales, is there one person that's bought all those clips? And report them to C4S? At least get them banned from C4S because they would know they were the exact same clips? I don't know how much you sell (and none of my business lol!) or if that's possible. Cut them out at the source at least.
I don't know how you sort it though but I'm new to this, sure someone else knows lots more than I do!

Pixxiegirl I think it sent, this site keeps requiring me to log back in every time I try and go to a different page.
fetishqueen-it's no way for me to know who it is who bought the clip because each one of my vids gets sold many times so it could be anyone unfortunately.

Could you also please PM me the site as well?
The answer to your question is variable depending on a bunch of factors. It can be anywhere from quickly to never depending on where they are operating out of and how willing they are to dig in and keep moving hosts and payment-acceptance methods.

Is there such a thing as putting out TOO MUCH content at once? I don't mean ALL at once but within the past couple days. I've put out eight brand new pieces of content, different categories. I guess I'm being impatient by putting lots of new clips out before the month is over lol. It might be doing me more harm than good =/ My sales today have not improved at all. And my hits are especially low. I had contacted support last night about a certain issue (a clip I had deleted was still showing up in my store page). Support stated my store "will be updated on all servers and data will show up correctly in a few hours." Well, it's twelve hours later and this deleted clip is still showing up in my store page. I guess they haven't finished resolving the issue. I contacted support again but no response.
Can this affect sales/hits I wonder?
I'm sure (hoping) it will pick up. I try to think of these trying times as the "calm before the storm".
I also googled my store yesterday and found lots of new pirated content =/ Maybe this is why my sales are low.
Trying to stay positive. I need to remember it can always be wayyyyy worse. If the world put its problems on the table I'd quickly take mine back. Most of us would probably. On the plus side I'm happy there is a new rule not allowing animals/insects/fish to get crushed. But they can still get swallowed? =(
