You have one minute to be impressed! Session duration and page depth at the Research Cooperative
Dear Members and Visitors,
Our network attracts on average around 100 to 200 visitors per day. What do you all do with your time when visiting our network?
I looked at some Goggle stats for our site (7th Feb 2013 to 8th Feb 2015, a period of two years).
Conclusions:
(1) Most visitors run away within a few seconds (thanks for finding us!)
(2) A significant number of visitors stay long enough to look at two or three different pages (see "session duration" and "page depth" below). That only requires two or three minutes.
(3) Very few visitors (including members) stay long enough to log in, write a message, or find someone who can help or who they can give help to.
Conclusion: we are not very successful attracting people who really need the social connections that are possible through our network.
Why is this?
Your opinons about the network are valuable, whether good, bad, or indifferent. Without your feedback, we cannot develop the Research Cooperative effectively.
