How many pages of the WSO forum do you look through?

15 replies
When browsing the WSO or the Main Internet Forum how many pages do you browse through before you either
1. Find what you are looking for
2. Purchase something
3. Leave unable to find something
4. Use the search function

I am wondering how many Warriors actually use the search function or just browse through to see whats avaliable.

I personally like to browse the forums and look for things that catch my eye. Wondering what other warriors do

    I don't usually go in looking for a specific kind of WSO, so I usually just have a browse around the first page. If I have a vague idea of the type of product I'm looking for I'll dig a little deeper and look at a couple of other pages.

    I either follow a link from the vendor straight to the WSO I want, or for impulse buying I only look at the first page then leave regardless.

    Strictly for buying purposes, I do the same as Andy and Ewan, either I follow a link directly to a WSO or I may browse the first page.

    To look around or even do some market research, I do check out at least 2nd and 3rd pages too but no further than that.

    I use the search function from time to time but honestly not very often.

    I can't answer your poll because the answers aren't related to the question(s).

    "How many" requires a numerical answer. I think you have 4 separate polls there, each requiring their own set of answers!

      This, exactly.

    Good point rosetrees...
    But it depends on what I am looking for... sometimes it's only the first page, but other times I can spend hours going through each page and think I like the look of that I'll check back in a while then forget what page it was on... ad lib

    I go into the WSO section for three reasons:
    1. I see a catchy title before I click into this forum
    2. I'm looking for something very specific
    3. I'm seeing if I can bump my WSO yet
    Outside of those reasons, I run far, far, far away from the WSO section. I generally treat the War Room the same way, except I don't have to hide my wallet when I go in there.

    I don't usually go window shopping. I only go there if I've heard of or been recommended a product that sounds useful. A lot of time and money can be wasted in the WSO forum so you need to be mindful of that.

      Have to agree with this. I usually get an email from someones list I'm on and if it sounds as though it's something relative to what I'm working on at that point, I'll investigate further.
      If you're in there window shopping you're probably not focused in my opinion.

    I try to avoid the wso section as much as possible and if for some reason I do end up there, I don't go for more than one page. Sometimes for giggles, I like to visit the 100th page or so to see what it was people used to sell and buy.

    The only time I use the search function is when I am looking for something in specific such as advise on web design or seo. Most of the time I do just what you do and just coast around to see what catches my eye or offer advice or help to those who ask for it.

    The option isn't up there, but less than a page. Of course, I'm not the normal or target Warrior that those WSO's are made for. I make a point of not buying them, and just take a quick glance at the first page when a headline catches my attention on the home page. I'm also directed in there from time to time when another Warrior PMs me and says "Joe, take a look at this clown."

    Just figured I'd throw an outlier in there for you .

    I never browse the WSOs. I either go there and search when I want something specific or click on a link in my emails.

        I don't browse the WSO section. I browse by new posts so if an offer comes up that either sounds interesting or is put out by someone I know then I click through and check it out. Otherwise, I just click through signature files when someone gets my attention with a knowledgeable post.

          I used to browse when I first joined , still do it from time to time but not as often. Simply browsing can can lead to you buying a lot of stuff . It has its pros too , in that you can pick up some real bargains that you may have missed if you didnt open that marketing email.

          Generally the first page and sometimes page two
