Hello. Why have all my latest scenes posted on the site stopped being viewed? All have ratings above 9.5. Is it because I haven't posted scenes for a long time?

It's the same for everyone. If you go to https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models?author=niko-kaniev-99 and view your models in default best match sorting, you can notice that all your assets that has been published after 2023 August 22th or something around that date, are neatly stacked at the very bottom and they will stay there indefinitely, no matter if they will get views, likes, sells, or ratings. Cgtrader fucked up their system and doesn't bother to fix it for half year. There's not much point in publishing new models when they are hidden from view.

Same thing is happening with many other people here including me.

Algorithm Changes:

Some creators suspect that algorithm changes on the CGTrader platform may be responsible for this decline.
The search engine now appears to favor older models, pushing newer ones down the list.
Models published after a certain date (around August 22, 2023) are often buried at the bottom of search results, regardless of their quality or relevance 2.
This shift has left many newer models struggling to gain visibility.

Search Engine Limitations:

The CGTrader search engine seems to retrieve only the first 10,000 models in search results.
If your model ranks beyond this threshold (e.g., model 10,001), it may rarely be seen by potential customers.
Even if someone searches for relevant keywords, the algorithm sometimes brings up irrelevant models instead of yours
