RE: Quick Update Regarding User Retention
I've been looking at the metric of "unique authors per day", which I think has been relatively stable over time.
There were some spikes and dips, but we're definitely not hemorrhaging users and the sky is not falling. I've got a lot of faith that if we continue to improve the platform, all of these numbers will continue to increase ;)
(this chart shows "unique authors" who either wrote a post or replied to a post with a comment on each given day)
Looks like a lot of steady content and participation to me too.. That's pretty good!!
Wow, 2000 to 3000 unique authors each day, including comments. Wow. That is so much smaller a pool than I would have ever guessed. That's motivating to me, though. There's really opportunity to get established here and not just be overwhelmed by all the new content streaming by. And it helps put all the posts about 'why am I not getting noticed' in perspective. Thanks!
There absolutely is, it's a great time to be getting involved in the platform. I have no doubt these numbers will increase as we improve the experience. If you're going to get started, just know it'll take some perseverance and your early posts might be hit or miss. Building up a list of followers seems to be one of the key growth metrics you should watch (as opposed to payouts).
Thanks for that advice. I'm looking for long-term engagement about specific topics, so I appreciate that it will be a process that will take some time! Here's to the future! : )
