RenuKakkar 183:1 Loosely, it means that from 183 views, 1 person added the book to their library collection. Of course, this calculation isn't an exact science, but it's the best thing we have so far.
What is your collection to views ratio?
Veronica8 Kind of unrelated. By I'm toying with the idea of submitting Zaldizko for featuring again. More for the fact I want to test the system and see if BL Action/Adventure can hack the Fangirling of the Romance genre.
Actually... :eyes: had a scary thought of being mobbed by anti-fans. On second thoughts, I'll hold on to my obscure innocence.
now it is 9 collections and 1862 views means 1: 207.

Angelyay Ok. I will review it shortly. I am in my office at present. Kindly see mine too and review.

Angelyay Just reviewed your novel and saved it to my library to read. Kindly review mine also.
Um, not to take away from the thrills of swap reviews. This is a special thread for talking about book stats, how book is ranking or even marketing of book.
If you're after swap reviews, I have this nice big list one could work through Swap Review Thread List
One off swapping and shameless promotion is probably okay. Maybe if we can stay on topic about ratios and book trending in this thread would be nice.
Thanks all.
I just checked ranking of original novels. Ranking is up till 999. Others coming after 999 are without ranking. I saw my novel way down (rank 1486).
Collection is still 10 and views 2271 ratio would be 1:227.1 Nothing much to write home about.

Alliosis Just as said that, here’s another with a lot of collections. XD
How does one even get that many? Or rather, the exposure to get there? For me, I’m pretty 80% of my collections came from review swaps and a handful of random people in forums getting curious because I’ve been more active/people also picking it up from my newer contest novel.
It’s my first time doing a review swap 
RenuKakkar Okay sure, but it’s my first time doing a review swap and I don’t write reviews that often so please bear that in mind
, I’ll check out ur novel as soon as possible, I’ve been rather busy lately

Angelyay Terms (like how many chapters you’re going to read and the depth of the review) varies between the two people involved, but basically you give a review on someone’s story and that person in turn reviews your story.
Reviews talk about the story in general, sometimes split into plot, characters, and writing. Say what you thought was good, needs to be improved, and maybe suggestions how to improve it. Usually people just talk about the story in general and what they like/dislike.
Most people don’t read all the chapters posted when they review. The norm is around 5-10 I suppose. Personally, I think anything less than 20 is pointless but eh, my opinion. Ofc, new stories usually have few chapters.
It's time to start keeping track of my stuff since I've been stressing about this. My fetus self would love to get contracted one day. How on earth do I get more collections and views help.

359k view / 669 collections = 537:1
Is that good or bad or normal? The higher the ratio, the better? Or the lower it is the better?
I don't know how the view thing works in relation to the collections, and I've basically just been keeping track of collections and votes. Views are beyond my understanding. I mean, I know it relates to people viewing a chapter but other than that?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
PsyberRose Lower numbers of views is what you'd be wanting. 10:1 would be God numbers, meaning that for every 10 views, one person added the story to their collection. That's roughly every single person who looks at the book. Of course, don't know any story that has reached 10:1. So, 100: 1 is better than 200:1.
Veronica8 Ah! Thanks! I'll just make myself happy looking at the collection and votes then, rather than the view ratio. hehehe.
Chryiss To be honest, this is the first time I posted my a link to my novel on a forum thread. From when I first started until when I posted it up there, I didn't advertise nor did I do any review swap.
That said, all my collection came from people liking my novel lol. To get collections, just make your story good or have a unique twist. I still think that my collections are too low compared to others...
