I’m really loving selling on the Unreal Marketplace. That said, I do see some areas where the marketplace could be better.
Love that the new products are by default listed first, giving them some exposure. Where I think the marketplace fails with exposure is after the release, outside of being in a sale, the creators have no way of getting more eyes on their products, at least within the Unreal Marketplace. It would be nice if we had a way to market our products within the marketplace. As it grows, getting exposure will be more and more difficult. Something that I have seen that looks to work well on other marketplaces, is creators being able to buy ads displayed in specific categories. also encourages more categories when it is warranted, as Epic will make more money on ads if there are more categories. Another idea is to allow merchants to buy tag words, placing their items at the top of the list for those words. Just my thoughts on it so far.
