Promoted Listings traffic dropped to zero around Aug 20 + sudden sales stop
Summary: luvbliss is experiencing a significant drop in Promoted Listings traffic, noting a complete stop in clicks from August 20 to September 3, despite strong overall traffic. They report that their regular sales have also stopped, despite maintaining a consistent sales average and running a sale. They are seeking to understand if others are encountering similar issues with Promoted Listings or sales.
I’m trying to determine whether there is a technical issue affecting Promoted Listings or seller visibility.
My store has 1,232 active listings across multiple categories.
My Advertising dashboard shows Promoted Listing clicks occurring through approximately August 20, then dropping completely to zero and remaining at zero through September 3.
My 7-day Traffic report shows:
• 154,299 impressions
• 1,212 listing views
• 0.7% CTR
• Promoted Listings: 0 views, down 100%
My longer-term traffic is still strong:
• 30-day impressions: 653,811, up 27%
• 90-day impressions: 1,792,007, up 66.5%
• 30-day CTR: 0.7%
• 90-day CTR: 0.7%
So overall traffic has not collapsed, but my promoted traffic appears to have stopped.
I also have had no eBay sales since Saturday, despite normally averaging about 1.4 items sold per day and currently running a sale.
I did not intentionally stop Promoted Listings around August 20.
Is anyone else seeing Promoted Listing traffic suddenly stop, or experiencing a similar sales freeze?
