So I'm trying to figure out why so many of my models have practically zero views. I realize many of them are in highly competitive categories (automotive/adjacent) and the data I have after such a short time on here is extremely limited, but ... it feels like everything I'm in a position to improve - verification score, overall score, reputation etc does not seem to correlate with search ranking in any way.
It's awfully hard to draw any conclusions and make improvements when nobody sees any of it and makes it impossible to build reputation in a catch-22 sort of way. The one or two models I have with decent views -in the hundreds as opposed to single digits- have sold a few times. So I guess there's nothing fundamentally wrong with the process itself.
Is this just a matter of going at it and things will eventually improve? Because it's feeling a bit pointless when I compare the numbers to other sites I list on.
