for those who don't ( or didn't then ) feed their clipstores, and rely on c4s traffic
then the majority of the in-house clips4sale traffic comes from the index page,
to show on the index page you need to be updating regular & / or advertising..
when there were LESS people signed up, stores stayed on the index longer..
Oh, I completely agree man.

Open a new store, and you were on there for the better part of a week. Update regularly, and you would be there for an hour or more. It was great, and you could tell when you had a front page listing because sales would be poppin'.

That said, I enjoyed that, and it was great. But all good things come to an end, and those couple of hours were nice, but there were another 20 in the day. I was concentrating on trying to keep the traffic rolling all 24 hours. Which is why my own approach was different.

I do not fault those who could rely on the old system. I am just saying that I never looked to thatg as my sole traffic stream. I wanted more control, and more consistency.
