Ebay Cap Sellers Traffic | Selling

For months, my store get a average of only a 100 views a day. I have coupons, promoted listing, and raised my percentage number in promoted listing. I even went out side of ebay put my store link in other web site, and social media. No matter what I do, my store is cap about a 100 views daily. To test this, I had 5 of my family members in different States, to view 50 of my store items each. (Total 250 views, so I thought). On that day, I check into Ebay traffic count for the day, it only states 96 views. This now lead me to believe, Ebay is intentionally placing caps on view counts, so sellers pay more money for promoted listings. I have been selling on Ebay for five years, however, in the last two years (or more), Ebay has been a horrible platform to sell on. Every other month Ebay comes up with another hoop, the want sellers to jump through with more fees. For me to make up the free fall Ebay place on all sellers, I had to sell on four other platforms. There was a time I just sold on Ebay, and made a decent profit. I called Ebay about the view cap, the agent just said spend more money with promoted listings. So, I did my final test, I listed a fifty dollar product on Ebay for one dollar for two days. If someone purchased the product I was going to honor the purchase. I got no views on that fifty dollar product I was selling for one dollar.
