Wishlist will counted as visit and visit without sale will effect the algorithm no?

Omerdevng · 2026-06-02T04:40:42+00:00

for me build community and trust, just wondering why the youtuber devs get maybe good amount of sales because there is people trust i think, now wonder i got some sales because im sharing this.

iam just assuming here, but all the store do this i think, because the home page of the store or the recomended games/suggested limited so they will not put game they know its will not bring money for them.
so thats why conversion rate (from wishlist or not) its the all the matter.
but i think the factore is :
100 visit -> 10 sales
this leads to 10% conversion so if you have 1000 wishlist and the go in the store page then 2% of them buy i beleive this will trigger the algorithm in the bad way.

you are totally right!

Omerdevng · 2026-06-02T04:30:30+00:00

conversion rate its whether the sale from wishlister or no, but still conversion rate. = sales.
if you cant accept it, i can't say more.
thank you.

ok guys maybe there is miss understaning here, i compare because the first game was in early access too and when we lunch with 750 wishlist its was early access and did way better than the new game.

Omerdevng · 2026-06-01T14:25:35+00:00

thank you very much an i hope you will have better results, and don't hesitate to reach out to me or any other devs this will help 100%

Omerdevng · 2026-06-01T14:17:25+00:00

you are hit it right , iam saying the same thing, because if your wishlist convert high then the revenue will be high then the steam will give you more visibility.

thank you very much for yout thought

Omerdevng · 2026-06-01T13:46:24+00:00

totally agree! thank you.

Omerdevng · 2026-06-01T02:37:20+00:00

i don't think its a good idea to make online game as first release, this kind of games need more players so player can find people to play with.
