No hut hits from spooky market?
I think I may have some coding wrong. I am size 328 in the spooky market I'm second on the page of huts 220-230 (4th row of huts down on the right.) I have not gotten any hits since I have been in the spooky market...about a month now. Is this normal?

It was rare for me to get any hits from Spooky until I reached the top row, and even then I didn't get very many. :(

Well first of all you need a banner in your shop. How do you expect newbies to enter your shop through the hut with no banner?

Yeah you really need to get yourself a banner (above your mall banner if your mall allows) check out the graphics area of this site and see if there is any you like. That should help make a difference ___________ [color=gray]Kirsty, aka evil super mod[/color] [size=11][i]Sniper, maller, restocker Silverdragon siggy stealer Best wearables shop owner ever![/i][/size]

I'm in Spooky aswell, always been top of my hut (around the middle tree) but I rarely get any hits. And if I do, I think it's from people in my hut that are curious. Is it normal? Hmm, yea :(

No one can expect wonders from spooky anyway. It's the bottom size market place for a reason, most difficult market to find for example, text link access only rather than image. ___________ [color=gray]Kirsty, aka evil super mod[/color] [size=11][i]Sniper, maller, restocker Silverdragon siggy stealer Best wearables shop owner ever![/i][/size]

Lets face it, the spooky market is the most uncommon marketplace to be in. So it is not at all unusual to hardly get any hits. I would highly suggest you move your shop to the Island Marketplace which is a bit more popular. But another factor could be your category. Toys has been a very unpopular category recently.

Hmm, maybe I should move then? I don't know. I don't think Spooky or Mystery really make a difference in sales. I'm only in Spooky, because my shop was to small to be in Island. I'm hoping to get into main market in a couple of weeks/months, so it doesn't really matter. And toys is highly unpopular, I noticed that after 2 days lol. I'm only doing this category since a few weeks. But well, I like the toys, always had a over 600 different toys/plushies in my SDB, so I just lobbed them all in shop.

Since the minimum for MI Marketplace was 330 if I remember correctly you should be able to move. And yes, I am pretty sure MI is more popular than HW since it has a picture to enter the marketplace than simple words.

Thank you everyone for your input. I do have a personal banner that is in my userlookup http://www.neopets.com/userlookup.phtml?user=neofreak12356791 should I put that on top of my mall banner? Also, I would like everyones input on if I should move to MI market (only need 2 upgrades) Would MI market bring in more hut hits?

And I'm a toy shop too :P But even tho toys might be an unpopular cattegory, it has it's peaks sometimes :P Like when people decide to love your shop, they really love your shop - I had ONE costumer buy over 150 items frmo me yesterday, averaging 1.2k per item but profits around 500np per item... So it was a good day for me - I found out it was for her gallery but she never finished browsing my pages, she went up to page 5 I think and I believe she'll come back xD So it has it's ups and downs.. Not a very popular cat like wearables but at least it's not crappy like, you know, school supplies XD
