eBay is phasing out "View Counters" on Listing Page

[silverpinups]

It looks like is eBay is phasing out the views counter at the bottom of the listing page.

Some of my listings show 00000 in the counter while other listings are completely  blank with no sign of the view counter.

I have a feeling that eBay wants a more generic page look..... it's another option that I found very helpful and will definitely miss.

Well it seems to be back.... for now.

To be honest I thought that function was phased out ages ago as I always check views on selling manager.

If you signed up for any of the optional listing tools out there, you should be able to add a variety of counters. They should be working fine now that everyone has updated everything to make 100% compliant. The ones in the listing tools seem to be a bit more visible compared to eBay's counter. All depends on if you are willing to pay for those features.

Haven't seen those in ages, wasn't aware they were still a thing. Watchers is still a metric that is tracked in any of the selling management tools. If they wanted to create some impetus to increase conversion rates they would use that along with how many units are sitting in a saved cart to derive an onscreen metric that indicates given interest in an item.
