When looking at my stats for item views, it shows people viewing sold items. How is this? Some days, the sold items are having more views than what I have listed :(

Any time an item has been tweeted, FB, or pinned, a link to that item is still on the internet and anyone who searches twitter, FB or Pinterest or any other social media that has a link to your item can click on it and will view the item with “sold” on it.
Also, bonanza has Items Sold in the Last year as one of it’s filters, so anyone who searches and then clicks on that filter option will also view Items Sold.
As long as an item has been pinned/repinned/ tweeted/re-tweeted, it will remain an active link…

Sorry, don’t have an answer but wanted to say that I’ve been perplexed by that, too. Also why items keep showing up “sold” for so long – like months.

Even though an item has sold, it remains on google for quite some time. Google doesn’t show the item as sold and therefore it can still be viewed by coming in from google. When you’re on the item stats page, there are two drop-down boxes. One lets you limit the “report” to only active items. The other lets you weed out the google bots from the human viewers.

I have an item that sold in Nov. and today it’s had 51 views. The past 30 days it’s had 1052 views. It’s crazy. I listed the same item again but it’s not getting those kind of views.

Remember these tips:
- Use links to other sources to support your opinions
- Use examples where possible
- Put yourself in the inquirers shoes: what extra info would be helpful?
Should I post a comment or an answer?
You can only post one answer, so make it count. Maybe your reply is more fitting as a comment instead?
Post an answer for:
- Replies that directly and specifically answer the original question
Post a comment for:
- "Thanks," "Me too," "I agree," or "Works for me" types of replies
- When you would like the original poster to provide more details
- When you have more to add to someone else's question or answer
