Hey, everyone, just wanted to let you know that we’ve just launched the new Analytics tool! It shows you data on searches, sales, available models and other useful information on the keyword level. It took us a while to aggregate 6 years worth of data from the marketplace, but we’re finally ready to open it to anyone with 5 or more models uploaded on CGTrader. You can read more about the tool here:

Be sure to watch the video! It shows you everything you need to know about the tool (direct link to the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDaRf5nmMY8)
There are some requirements for accessing the full functionality of the tool (e.g. upload more models and make small improvements that help your models rank better in search results). At Tier 1 you get the most basic keywords, and with each consecutive Tier you gain access to increasingly more in-depth information about the market (e.g. Tier 2 requires 10 models total and unlocks the Top 100 keywords on CGTrader, Tier 3 adds another 100 keywords, etc.).
We’ve also posted an intro to the Tier system on our blog:

Let us know how you like the Analytics!
P.S. as we were playing around with the keyword search function, some funny searches popped up. For example, the keyword 'ship' is among the most popular keywords on CGTrader, but the most popular two-word search phrase with the word 'ship' was 'ship wreck', followed by 'ship Titanic' – customers clearly don't want their 3D ships to swim :D
