Hello,

I am sorry if this has been asked before but is there a way to determine which "Article Categories" are popular among the 30 Ezine has on the main page?

Do I based on how many articles are in each of the sub-categories?

Thanks for any help,

Mike

    Not really but you can determine which articles are popular by looking at the date submitted and the number of views.

    You can also check the most viewed in each category.

    Anyway number of articles as displayed in each category is not an ideal way to judge the popularity of the category. I rather look at what topics are favored by readers or publishers.

    Most article sites have a heading on most viewed or most popular articles. This does not always give the entire story either depending on how long the article has been online. However, it does give some idea if you look at them based on a time line

    Judging the popularity of a niche by seeing the number of available articles in the niche will be deceptive...

    Just because there are more articles in a niche, only means that more people "think" there will be an interest... Or one person "thinks" there will be an interest... I say this thinking back to the woman who produced nearly 1000 articles on mesothelioma, because she read that a few lawyers were paying $40 per click on those types of leads... What she missed out on was that there were only a couple of lawyers doing that, and they were generally only buying one lead a day... LOL

    One measure that may be more constructive is to look at the volume of page views certain articles receive, such as: 200 Most Viewed Articles of All-Time at: thePhantomWriters.com

    Another measure is to see how many people have shown positive opinions of articles, such as: 200 Highest Rated Articles at: thePhantomWriters.com
