Author Topic: Sudden drop at FT? (Read 3775 times)

Anyone else see a sudden drop Wed night / Thurs morning in their FT downloads?

I'm thinking a best match shift happened around midnight in Europe.

For me, yesterday (Wednesday) was a great day for downloads, normal for a weekday lately.

Then at around midnight in Europe, it's like a switch was flipped. I'm looking at around 25% of the downloads I would normally see at this time of the day.

Maybe this hit certain types of contributors more than others. If you're an Emerald, and/or in the top few hundred in the FT rankings, did you see a drastic change overnight?

You picked up a shift in one night?

Why not continue the thread about FT's sales in their own forum?

I'm emerald and haven't noticed anything different this week. I think if it went much lower at FT I would give up bothering to upload there!!

Its a touch down but not with much. I think they have to do something with their search though, it seems to be the same files selling all the time, mostly old sellers.

+1 on both counts. Would love to see a best match change if it would mean my sales would pick up to where they used to be.
