Just received official notice from NOOK Team. Their keywords is not implemented, and their structure isn’t set up to be searchable by keywords. They say it would “require major changes to our search infrastructure” and are “looking into it”. [import]uid: 40033 topic_id: 32610 reply_id: 332610[/import]

Ouch. How do they expect people to find apps? [import]uid: 19626 topic_id: 32610 reply_id: 129768[/import]

Thanks Peach, sorry about that!
Rob, looks like they’ve never had a working keywords function. The only way to find an app is to know the name, just do category search (that’s not very good either), or to include keywords in the title. :frowning: [import]uid: 40033 topic_id: 32610 reply_id: 129808[/import]

I think that explains why we all had a significant drop in sales since August.

I have done keyword searches in the past, ‘before’ whatever they changed in August, and they worked.

I released before the world series a Casey at the Bat - ebook/reader app, and did a search for baseball and casey and their search didnt find it.

Hey B&N - I think you have some 'esplaining to do… [import]uid: 9070 topic_id: 32610 reply_id: 129823[/import]
