How long should i expect to wait for Syndication?

[hensfeathers]

So i just discovered in another thread where to look to know if you have been syndicated (thanks you!) and i just looked up the criteria (because i still am not).

I have had 16 sales and have 8 +feedback. (my store has officially been opened since 8.23.11 but i began listing 11.25.11).

Does anyone have any stats on when they became syndicated, i.e. how many sales and + feedbacks? Or is being syndicated something that just happens at random?

I thought it happens at random. Now that you're asking I am not sure anymore. Anyone knows how a store become syndicated?

I don't know about that until September 2011. I saw it on my account around that time (my guess) and not curious enough to check it out. After 6 months I opened the store. That's also about time sales trickling in steadily.

How do you know if you're syndicated?

[hensfeathers]

fyi, love your shop and work sophistica. good luck to you!

[hensfeathers]

go to your shop stats page and on the left hand side, under "promote" it is supposed to say syndicated, if you are. (this is what i have been told, but i am not yet, so i can't say for sure!)
check out the link in the response above to initiate the syndication process

Okay - I am. Just didn't know it. I should probably read up on this stuff!

It seems like I should be syndicated, but I'm not seeing it. Maybe I'm not?

So glad I joined this team, I've learned so much over the past few weeks. I had a few of my first orders that I didn't mark as shipped because I didn't realize that I could send shipment info. I fixed those open orders and have good feedback and no open invoice... so if I'm reading this right I should be able to get syndicated sometime after my next order?

Thanks for all the information and links!
