Clout And The Yeja Map

Clout measures how people respond to your work and ranks you once 50 different people have reacted. The Yeja Map tracks the medals you earn across seven islands.

Where To Find Clout

Open User Clout, Profile & Login from the account menu or Account Hub. User Clout is its first tab.

When Clout Unlocks

Clout starts once 50 different people have reacted to your work. A like on one of your works counts as a reaction. Until then, a ring shows how many people have reacted so far, and everything else you earn still counts toward your score.

Once it unlocks, you see your score, how it changed over the last week, a 90-day trend, your rank among artists whose clout has unlocked, and your tier. Scores are updated once a day.

Tiers run from Emerging through Rising, Notable and Acclaimed to Iconic. Your tier depends on where your score ranks among all unlocked artists.

What Earns Clout

What Earns Clout lists each signal, the points it is worth, and how many of each you received in the last 90 days. Signals include Atelier views, reactions, saves, comments, clicks from social media, shares, collector messages, delivered promotions, galleries reaching out, gallery visits booked, confirmed resales, sales and followers.

  • Your own actions never count.
  • The same person counts at most once a day for each signal on each work.
  • Recent activity weighs more, and older points fade over time. Only the last 90 days count toward your score.

Your Most Popular Works shows your top works and their trends. The Clout Calculator lets you enter new activity and shows how many points it would add and where it would move your rank.

The Leaderboard

The Leaderboard ranks Artists, Artworks and Galleries. Choose Clout, Last 7 Days, Last 30 Days, All Time or Rising, and filter by country. Only signed-in members can see it, and artists appear only once their clout has unlocked.

To leave the leaderboard, clear Show Me on the Leaderboard. This also hides your clout from your public profile.

Clout On Your Public Profile

Other signed-in members see your score, tier, rank, 90-day trend and most popular public works on your profile. Until 50 people have reacted, it says Not ranked yet. What earned your points, the calculator and your leaderboard setting stay private to you. Use What Others See to check.

The Yeja Map

The Treasure Map card in Account Hub opens the Yeja Map: seven islands, one for each part of building your practice on Yeja. You earn medals on each island by doing real things on Yeja, and the islands light up as you go.

  • The Harbor: your account, your name and your photo.
  • The Foundry: your studio, where work is made, cataloged and priced.
  • The Lighthouse: being seen, with your public Atelier and your posts.
  • The Market: Art Board, where collectors browse, favorite, bid and buy.
  • The Guildhall: public art and commissions.
  • The Wharf: your Wallet.
  • The Vault: auctions, fundraisers and provenance.

Every island is on every map. An island meant for a different kind of account stays dim and says who it is for.

Medals And Your Next Step

  • The scroll at the top shows your Next Step. Select it to go where that step happens. A flag marks its island.
  • Select an island to open its guide, with what you've Completed and what is Remaining. The guide's button takes you to that island's app.
  • Replay Next Step plays the scroll and the flag again.
  • Your Medals shows every medal, and Captain's Logbook lists your progress as text.
  • Some Vault medals stay Locked until you earn Coffers Open, which needs your Stripe payouts set up.
  • Medals are permanent. Yeja checks your activity each time you open the map, and new medals are celebrated when they appear.

Showing The Map At Sign-In

The map opens when you sign in and land on Account Hub. After you've closed it a few times, closing it asks whether to keep showing it at sign-in. Choose Cancel to stop. You can still open it any time from the Treasure Map card, and your progress is kept either way.

Common Questions

Why don't I have a clout score yet?

Clout starts once 50 different people have reacted to your work. Until then, everything you earn still counts toward your score.

How often does my clout update?

Once a day.

Do my own likes count?

No. Your own actions never count toward your clout.

Can I keep my clout private?

Yes. Clear Show Me on the Leaderboard. You leave the leaderboard, and your clout is hidden from your public profile.

Who can see my clout?

Signed-in members see your score, tier, rank, trend and most popular public works. What earned your points stays private to you.

How do I open the Yeja Map?

Select the Treasure Map card in Account Hub.

Can I lose a medal?

No. Once you earn a medal, it stays yours.

How do I stop the map opening when I sign in?

Close it with the X. After a few closes, Yeja asks whether to keep showing it. Choose Cancel. You can still open it from the Treasure Map card.
