Yes, but who can do it? Would love analytics to be here.

Let's just tag @jarvie and @asgarth at random places over and over until they shift their development focus. :p

Sad I only got one tag. hahaha
K so what do you guys want more specifically?

We haven't touched general account analytics since steempeak.com started as we've been busy doing a bunch of other things... we have always known we'd come back to it because there are so many more things we can do.

However if we had a few people providing solid feedback as to what analytics would be addictive to people that would be nice. Specially if those people were understanding of what features would provide the most return for the least amount of development time.

I would also say that most analytics on steem have focused on MONEY analytics which isn't what most other sites do... they focus on engagement analytics ... which we both agree are likely more interesting AND bring more people to steem because then people are more motivated to actually share their content even to people who have no vote or account.

And knowing that analytics is likely gonna have to be a gradual thing... where we add some perhaps each development cycle. But having a game plan would be nice.


On another note it's my personal opinion that Steem users aren't really experienced at engagement and pushing eyeballs to their stuff... we see very little amount of people linking their posts to the outside world. But to be fair this is their first rodeo for most of these people and they've been used to places like reddit, twitter, youtube that have huge user bases... but they don't realize that there are people posting content from twitter, youtube and the likes all over the internet like on the news. Twitter gets shared on reddit... there are whole youtube videos or even channels that focus on curating and sharing content from reddit. etc

As i've checked out steempeak analytics I've seen a few posts get tens of thousands of views and yet get very little rewards.

Indeed, this is what would be nice with public analytics to have as well, which I think would also be nice if you guys could implement instead of the way Twitter only shows it for personal use and same thing with Reddit subreddit traffic only shows it to moderators. Keep it all public and transparent for anyone to see which would align with the Steem spirit in general, but yeah.

I think the most important first steps would be a viewcounter, if you guys also build the backbone to differentiate between accounts and bring weekly/monthly viewcounter/"impression" charts one can check up specifically somewhere then it would also pave the way for something like adding Brave to steempeak for each content creator (I don't know how this last part would work exactly but having the option open would be a + and if you guys want to share some BAT revenue with the content creators that have generated most of the traffic would be appreciated both ways and at the same time lead to even more traffic when they're aware of what sharing their steempeak links outside of the steem ecosystem can entail, not to mention specific accounts/stake that give extra curation incentive before posts pay out depending on the views they generated.

So yeah, any sort of viewcounter would be very much appreciated at first, doesn't even matter much to begin with if it's easily gamed (which I think was the reason Steemit removed theirs last time to "fix it" and it remained gone.
