It was 49 degrees when I got up today with gray skies. The humidity was less than 20%. We remain in the drought that ended the US summer. Other information I am 145 meters above sea level.
I got a PM today about twitter dashboards and how do I get to mine. On your twitter home page go to the More button and select Analysis. That will take you to your tweets, the average per day of views, and, more importantly, your interactions. I find that as Alex Ledante mentioned I get a lot of views and actions from eBay shares than I do from Virily shares.
I am stopping my viewing of other authors for a few weeks to recharge. That buys me 15 minutes to read more posts by more people. I again want to apologize to those that I do not get to every day.
One of the things I am still interested in but can’t test is the time of day. First off, the time of day is a huge variable. Secondly, there are many authors who wait, two, three, or more days and may have four or more posts published at exactly or nearly the same time. It makes finding a consistent reading for the time of day hard.
I find the comment conversation on my last post to be interesting. There were some excellent comments from other authors about comments.
1. Please do not take this as me saying you need to spend more time on Virily, spend the time you can!
2. Comments are harder because honestly the depth and number of comments you get have nothing to do with you, other than the content you start the process with.
So let’s turn comments into a challenge. One time a day, pick a random author and leave them a compliment. Beyond the comment, leave them something nice about them.
I love your posts!
I love your pictures!
You are very creative!
(I cloud keep going but I won’t)
Let’s call it the pay it forward positive comment challenge!

I’m happy to read your posts even though I don’t completely understand some, dear friend
Hopefully you find value in them anyway! Thank you!!!
I always find something interesting, dear friend … which I don’t understand but ask
that is the best way to be. If you don’t know ask!!!
Thanks again for your kindness, dear friend … you are always ready to help
There was a challenge I participated in one time on one of the sites like this. Not sure which one. I think it was Tsu though, sorry you weren’t there, but you do know the site as many have mentioned it. Anyway… What I was getting to is, one of the admins made a challenge. It was to leave a heartfelt comment on someone not on your friends list and to someone you don’t know, just one comment a day, pick a new person a day. It was a week long survey type post. At the end of the week you were to count how many new friends you had made. Once the ball started rolling you had so many knew fun friends.
I will take you up on your challenge Doc, great idea, great minds think alike…
awesome – thanks Kim! I love your challenges! just as you know am challenge limited!
Thanks for sharing and nice post lol
Not kidding its Reality my friend
God bless and keep posting
thanks! I am glad you found value in the post!
So I am a day behind. (That’s great news, only a day!) I do love your posts and try to leave positive comments. I will accept your challenge and spread out with encouraging and kind comments.
As usual I have a question. You mentioned that time of day is key. I like in MST so what time should I be doing what. (Not say I can make it happen all the time, but it would be great if I could take advantage of all you have to teach) You can send it in a pm if you want!
Beware! pay it forward positive comment challenge! Nice comments are on their way.
actually, it is more that I have no way to test the time of day. I really wish I knew that.
please do pay it forward!
Oh dang it. I really do need to learn how to read. I am putting that on my to list today.
I do that myself, read something and then reverse it. I called Kim Pam today!
I love your posts. You are a great author
Thank you pal! I return the same to you! I love your posts as well!!!
Say something nice to the author – directly in a comment!
Say something about other posts and the post you are reading in the comments to the author!
Let’s make Virily more Positive!

I try to read comment and respond as much as I can
you will take the challenge and leave one positive comment for one user a day?
I think we need to build a positive flow of energy here on Virily!!!!
I always comment because I want to show how I felt reading the posts. My reaction in written form.
in this case how about something nice to the person, not post related? Will you try that?
Yes, I will try. I hope the authors I post to nice words not related to their posts won’t take it in the wrong way. I’m highly sensitive I might get depressed quickly.
It’s a good challenge. It will make the community more friendly.
That is the hope, but you are right people do sometimes take things online the wrong way.
I love reading and leaving positive comments when I have the time.
🙂 in this case (like the one you left below) one personally to the author?
I have done a post today based on your comment, that was really an interesting comment. The post has your name in the title.
I read your post and commented on that before I read this lol.
That is exactly what I think we need – more positive!!!!
I will go find that post-Suny! thanks for jumping on the challenge!
I reply to every comment. Sometimes I miss the answers a little.
You are great at leaving kind comments!
I am already doing that with comments as time allows.
same here. if I can’t say something nice then I’ll go sit next to Wilde…
That explains why you never comment on my posts (kidding)!
You are very good and helpful and useful comments. Thanks Alex!
if I can say something nice, I’d sit next to you. and bogart your wodka, comrade…
that I believe, is why wodka has lock on cap.
you, are who I based the challenge, I should have mentioned you and LaJenna by name!!!
No need to mention my name, but thank you!
I had you and LaJenna in my draft, but I lost it! Well i deleted the file and oh well!
