Visitor Counter for discussions.

I think having a visitor counting would be a great assett to the performance of the members of the MyLot community. I have just recently reactivated my activities here on MyLot, and have posted a few discussions without having any responses or comments on them. I used to be good at MyLotting!! LOL I guess I am alittle rusty and have lost my status with activity, as now I have to start all over with meeeting people and staying busy with the discussions and forums. Guess I am a little rusty, but I would love to see ho many people, if any, look at my forums. Is this something that we as Mylotters can propse to the administration?

Yes I think that a stat counter or view counter will be a great addition to this marvelous site, as it can help see which of your discussion are very popular. I feel this will help us to see which of our threads are popular, and track how many people have seen it. I am pretty sure that it said you can increase your earnings if you get more people to read your discussions if they respond to it, so having a view counter will help you see how many of your visitors comment and you can make a graph about it.

So You'd like to know how many people are checking out your discussions,but who don't actually get around to posting a response when they do so? Personally speaking,I'm disappointed when discussions I go to the trouble of creating end up in the Limbo of the "No Responses" file-knowing that people were looking at it and saying nothing at all wouldn't make it feel any better watching it stay there!

Hi there! I think I would not want a visitor counter. I wouldn't want to find out the big difference in number of those who only come to read my discussions and not respond on them. It will only reflect how uninteresting my topic is. It might only break my heart hehe. I just like the way how everything works here in mylot. Receiving responses from my topics is enough for me to know how many got interested. Ciao!

I think if it was an option that you could chose to include it would be good for those who do want to improve their performance on myLot. Plus as well as helping to gauge the success of your discussion in terms of responses it would also help you to work out which discussion topics have a higher visitor rate than others. But I wouldn’t like it forced upon us as a permanent attachment to each discussion as for some members myLot is all about the social interaction rather than trying to get more responses and would be a distraction as people go round comparing how many people visit your discussions.

i think it's a fab idea,out of the few discussions i've started there are 2 that haven't had a response,it would be interesting to know if people have actually read them and decided that they were no good,or if they just haven't been read at all

That would be lovely. It can boost you or it can also upset you when nobody is in. But nice idea of how to add spice in the discussion if they would put such a tool. I have nothing against it if they will implement such. If the discussion is bad, we can't delete it anyway, so the number of visitors would be less. But if the counter also counts the number of people who viewed the topic, but not responded, then that's another issue. I guess you would favor a visitor who responded and not a viewer only. Happy Mylotting.

A good idea. I agree with you.

I guess this can be a good idea.But I am also not denying the fact that almost 90% of people who read somebody's discussion also answer to that.So the responses that u get are almost the the no. of visitors u r getting for ur discussions.

It will be really great to have this feature of visitor count. This will let us know what kind of discussions are the users really interested.
