Traffic -- What does it all mean?!!!!! Help!!!!

[tinksemporium]

Hello Fellow Sellers,

Forgive my ignorance on asking but am new to being an actual business seller instead of a private seller. 

So I found the Performance section and am wondering what a few things down right mean!!!!!

First, what does it mean by Impressions? Second, how does this differ from actual listing views? I ask these 2 main questions because Impressions is in the thousands and listing views in a couple hundred. 

My third question is what does click-through rate mean? Funny how no one tells you these things but they expect you to know them.

Any help or advice would be great appreciated. I feel stupid for not knowing but then they say the most stupid question is the one that was never asked....so I am making it count by asking 3. 😀🤣

Thank you in advance

Ask as many questions as you need, we all had to learn at some point

1, Impressions refer to the amount of times your listing has been seen on eBay

2, Views refer to how many times your listing has been interacted with, by either clicking on or hovering over the listing to gain more info

3, Click through rate, is how many times someone has clicked on your listing taking them to the main listing page

@asbtdistribution Thank you so much for the answers.....that make more sense now....so obviously quite a few of my listings are popular....now to whittle down in future what is looking more promising from others.

I hope these questions and your answers help others as well
