Hey @FNCreate,
We need to talk about this...
"The Follow Creator button will be removed from the Developer Profile Link device on June 25."
This is a major blow to creators who are still trying to grow their audience.
Since Follow Creator, Discover has actively surfaced content from followed creators. Meanwhile, favoriting maps has never provided comparable visibility, despite individual maps often having significantly more favorites than creators have followers.
So what is the plan here?
If the Follow button is being removed, are there plans to make favoriting a map more meaningful? Will players who favorite an experience receive more visibility into updates and new content from that creator?
From a creator perspective, it's difficult to understand the logic behind removing one of the few audience growth tools.
Would love to understand the reasoning behind this change and what the plan is for creator discovery and audience retention.
@sianafr@HaroldAtEpic Dynamic discovery nice one this map with not even good metrics has been stuck on popular for days at N1 yet us smaller creators cant even get 20 mins in the New tab this is crazy fix your shit
I appreciate that Epic is trying to improve discovery, but what am I really supposed to extract data wise from my new release..."New #10" only giving 64 impressions? If the previous 50k was hard to reach with more maps and fewer players, why not just decrease it by 5-10k instead?
@FNCreate@HaroldAtEpic So harold mentioned thumbnails are an important factor when considering success so why dont maps which have very hight ctr and decent/good metrics perform well I must be missing something here
also please fix the updated tab nothing I do works no matter the hours or effort
@HaroldAtEpic@detail_mon79250@FNCreate Since These metrics and ctr are most likely the same why does one game get this exposure while another one doesnt also I have updated my game many times with a considerable amount of effort and time spent just to not receive any updated tab at all its frustrating ๐ญ@HaroldAtEpic
@HaroldAtEpic@detail_mon79250@FNCreate Hey Sorry for the late reply the maps which I have underperform because of lack of impressions islands with similar metrics/genre have much higher levels of exposure some of my games didnt even break 5k impressions my metrics MXIC :
Other games metrics SONOQ:
@HaroldAtEpic
@HaroldAtEpic@detail_mon79250@FNCreate Hey I just wanted a little follow up to ask what is the result of this drastic difference in impressions one game has 2 million + impressions a day and here I am barely being able to get above 100 the game I mentioned is a similar genre and has similar metrics with similar ctr
