Well, escturtle, I think there are plenty of things we don't know so we learn as we go along. I didn't know those settings applied to private requests but I always wondered, so I figured 100% was best. At least now you know what to do to keep selling to that client. Good luck! :)

I think of it from the buyer's viewpoint and I think they'd prefer to see 100% before buying. We can worry about people copying and stealing our work if we reveal too much of it, but if people are determined, they'll find a way somehow and we can't really control that.

Good luck!!
Update as Requested:

Only 31% of sales from last month were showing 100% of article. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

31% is exactly where I'm at. lol

Excluding the private requests, I wrote 13 articles in the last 2 months. I sold 4, but I also admit that I've been writing 1200-1500 word articles and charging between $150 and $200 for them. I expect them to sell more slowly.

31% wasn't my sales to content posted ratio.
Of the articles I sold during the last month, only 31% were showing the full article in the long preview. The rest of my sales only showed 33% of the article.
