Mine has gone up since I had sales yesterday. It can be an incentive or a disincentive. I can't see how we can tell how many active stores there are.

Where does it talk about search term popularity? Although I gather anything that you type in and it autocompletes must be relatively popular.

I'm not sure, I didn't mention that. I meant on my stats, what they look for in my store, I do lots of different fetishes so it helps me out there.
My store rank hasn't changed yet either!

I just tried logging out, then logging in again and it updated the rank. Guess it's tied to your login sessions or a cookie.

A message was sent out from the Site Administrator stating a change to their User Terms and Conditions. The new rules to banned/prohibited content is: intentionally using banned words and no fraudulent sexual activity.
I know the obvious banned words but is there an actual list of words they do not allow? I've googled it but can't find anything.
Thank you.

I don't think they have an official list. I would just assume it is anything to do with illegal activities, drugs, underage, scat etc

If they are going to have a rule like that, they really should have a LIST of the words somewhere on the site. I know people used to use (and still do) various spellings of the words hypnotize, poppers, blood, kill, death, dog, among others, so I'm guessing those are some of them.

Yes, I agree they should have an official list. They said if they find banned words they can close down your store. I know the obvious words but maybe there are more words that aren't so obvious to me. I suppose I can just ask support if I'm unsure of a certain word.

I don't know of a list but the word will just not show up in the description when the clip shows in your store, if you use it.

Yep, and I think the rule is that any circumventing of this will be a rule break. (ie: pQQp instead of poop)

They haven't changed the rule on underage clips but they sent out a message earlier this year saying that we could no longer use under age looking dolls, at all, in any context. The rule can be taken to mean that as it's written now, but they were allowing under age doll clips previously, despite that rule. They really need to make it clearer now.

I can see I am ranked in the 400s, which I guess isn't bad because there are almost 2400 stores, but I don't like it because I feel like I am not doing enough. I hate knowing I am bouncing around in a not so great area. I wonder how many of those stores are inactive.
I was coming here to ask if anyone knew how many stores there were overall, so I can have some point of reference for my global ranking. How do you know there are ~2400 stores?

I have a store I often forget about, it magically had a sale today and according to the global rank there must be close to 7000 stores.

Would be nice to have some hard data, even if it was just in the studio admin.
Total stores, total ACTIVE stores (updated within 30 days).
Most popular keywords across the site
Most popular searches across your own store
Site searches that lead to people clicking your content/store (you can sort of see this in referrers, but you have to dig)
Splitting on-site referrer data out from off-site referrers, and having referral data in the sales order information.

Well the most important data to me is what actually SELLS, for me. And then I make more of that. And even with certain categories/types of clips, some sell better than others....so I try and analyze the gif/title/description to see if I can find out why.

Well I see they have added a list of the banned words it seems more than I thought there would be.

Has anyone ever had a problem with receiving sales order emails from C4S? I have hotmail and a few days ago my clip orders were being sent to my junk folder. I figured it was kind of weird but didn't do much about it. Then a couple days ago I stopped receiving them altogether. The only way I know if I've made a sale is if I'm in my admin. I messaged support but they told me to check my spam folder. I've checked every folder and there's nothing. So strange. Just wondering if anyone else has ever had this issue and what they did about it.

Yes, a couple of times over the years I have had periods where I wasn't receiving the emails but it usually only lasted a day or two and then things were back to normal.
You know.....I wonder if something is going on with Hotmail and they are cracking down more on anything slightly adult related. I say this because I have a regular clip customer that I have been emailing for years and they have a hotmail account and just out of the blue, my emails started getting rejected by hotmail (about 2 months ago or so). And yes, there is something in my email address that might be considered "adult" in nature. The customer created another email address (not hotmail) and he's had no problems since. So I have to wonder.....

They won't add context, the banned words will just be picked up automatically and won't show. It's changing the spelling of banned words they're concerned about.
I don't know why we can't use words that relate to the category...can't use toilet related words in toilet fetish but not using the words doesn't stop people breaching the terms by showing the stuff. You can also make incest scenario clips in taboo but can't use that word, and the same with hypno.

Support emailed me back regarding the sales order emails. The programmers stated my email was under the suppression list because of a spam complaint but they have removed it and I should receive the emails without a problem. Maybe I accidentally clicked on something by accident? Not sure how this happened. Never had a problem before.
Today I started receiving the emails again but they still show up in my junk folder which is so strange.

Question about making fetish videos? I have been putting off making videos cause I am not sure where to start but I need to just start somewhere! When making fetish videos, do the guys want dirty talk too? For example, when making a burping video, do they want dirty talking or just burping?

I've done both. Depends on my mood. For example, I've done lip fetish videos where I just show off my lips with minimal talking, some where I just talk a little about them/how plump they are/how kissable (no dirty talk), and some videos where I do dirty talk/jerk off encouragement/instruction. I've also done this with armpit fetish, hand fetish, belly button fetish, biceps, legs, veins (because my hands have big juicy veins certain times of the day lol), etc.
You stated you're not sure where to start so I'd suggest making a burping video where you just burp or talk about your burps. If you're up for it, do a little dirty talk or teasing. Don't put too much pressure on yourself to talk all super dirty if it's something you're not used to doing. Start small and work your way up. Dirty talking did not come naturally to me at first, it took a little practice but I'm fairly confident about it now. It's funny but in real life, I hardly ever dirty talk because I feel like it's going to sound stupid lol. My alter ego does a much better job at it ;)

Some guys just like observing, some like to hear you talking about whatever the fetish and your experience of it, some like you to act out a scenario/role play, either with them just observing it or the other party in the role play, some like you to talk dirty or tell them what you want them to do.
I don't make burping clips but I would expect they would only want to see you do that or maybe hear you saying that you can't stop/worried about how much you're burping or talk about your burping experiences. You may get guys emailing you with other suggestions.

Anyone else not have their update show up on the Main page or category page tonight?
UPDATE: Nevermind, it's working now.
UPDATE 2: Nevermind again as it's NOT working again tonight. :mad:
UPDATE 3: It's showing in the category this morning, but I had to contact support about it last night. Usually new updates show on the main page pretty quickly, but it was over an hour and I noticed the Main page wasn't showing ANY new updates, so obviously there is an issue.
UPDATE 4: THREE nights in a row now where updates don't post to the main/category pages. Talking to support. Again. *sigh*
UPDATE 5: *Halle-fucking-lujah* It worked just fine tonight! :-D
UPDATE 6: UGH! Nevermind, again. It worked for ONE night and now tonight it's back to NOT working again. WTF C4S?!

How long were you gone for? I think when you are gone for awhile, guys stop checking your store on a regular basis. Then you kind to have to build that back up again.

And I think something is wrong :/ Last month was hard for me, but this month i get two sales in my store that i update regularly (i have this store from 2015), and 3 sales in my new store, that i am not so focused on...
From the time i've got a message from a customer that he have a problem with buying my clips my sales really dropped :( And that was like two months ago.
But maybe that's just me.
Got a response as to why the site isn't updating correctly at night:

Has anybody had any duplicate orders the last couple of days? Both last night and today I've had two people buy the same clip twice, different sales order numbers so it's not just a duplicate sales email. Now perhaps they want to buy the same clip twice but I don't see it myself. Wait now for the refunds :(

The thing I don't understand is why they don't let us know they are having problems. Make a damn announcement. I manually add each clip to my store so I can make sure it shows up on the front page and on the category page. I feel bad for all the people who schedule their clips because they probably have no idea their clips aren't showing up.
