Exposure Numbers and Stats

[Former_Member]

Hello Team :D

As a struggling beginner here, I have been trying every social media tool out there to get my shop more exposure and traffic. I have paid more than I have made.

I was looking at my twitter account and noticed big numbers of retweets and followers in such a short amount of time that I have been on this new 2 week old social marketing campaign.

All links in this campaign are to my etsy shop and specific items I market to specific target markets along with the pics they get tweeted.

That being said, why is it that my shop views always show only a fraction of the views my followers can see from twitter? And, is it normal to have such low numbers on the etsy side and high numbers on the twitter side?

Puzzled and Starving,

PS I am more than able to talk tech as I am a former Cisco Systems IT Security Engineer and a former Microsoft Datacenter Technician as well as multi certified in several Server systems on both hardware and software.

I am familiar with filtering traffic and the actual command you have to enter on a command line for directing traffic at the router and switch level as well as the gui's for several server types on multiple platforms from Microsoft to Linux to IBM's AS400s and so forth as so on.

Could it be that my traffic is being overly filtered? I don't see how 3 techical people generating all this exposure on the twitter side can amount to none on the Etsy side.

I guess what I am asking your techs, is if you see any of your own or neighboring inbound or outbound traffic with acls limiting my account between your ISP and your demark? Or between your demark and your MDF, main distribution facility?

I have downloaded and screened wireshark traffic and can't see anything on my end with packet captures. All the headers seem normal. What else can be checked?

I suppose it is entirely possible that Etsy doesn't show numbers for those using mobile private browsing settings, but can it also block sales? Can I get an activities log file for the server my account is on to see my acct activity and to make sure my customer's are not receiving errors when they try to order? Can I get an acknowlegement that my requests and information I am reporting is even getting received today? Thanks so much for all your help.
