The lowest number of views for a Red H

[StillStunned]

I know, I know, in theory you only need 10 views. But in practice, what's the lowest view-to-vote ratio you've had for a Red H?

I ask because this:

 

[AwkwardlySet]

My lowest ratio is close to 1:10 votes per view. I have several chapters that are close to this ratio and none of them are the first chapter in a series.
By the way, you need to update your forum status for chapter five.

Thanks, good spot!

I find I can't get my head around what "lowest" is referring to. Here are my Red H numbers

Views Votes Ratio
7795 108 1/72
10073 59 1/171

Must be a scifi thing. My lowest is 4.56/27 votes from 2k views.

Lowest means best, in this context. Your first one has the best Votes to View ratio. 1 in 72 is pretty good, 1 in 171, not so good.

The low viewing numbers is. *Grumble*

I think I pulled a Red H with twenty or thirty Views once. It didn't last, and I can't remember what story it was. Years ago, back when I had more fans .

My last Summer Lovin' story has 14k views, 63 votes, so 1 vote per 252 views.
Actually, those voters in Anal are worse for not voting - 25k views, 38 votes, 1 in 665, for Educating Laura: Anal Time. Even less votes than the gay men...

I've twice had a perfect 5 and 10 votes, once on a story that had had 9 votes for months, but that's never lasted more than a day or to 12 votes. Definitely got a red H with under 100 votes, but then non-followers took a look...

^^^ Not to derail the thread, bit I've been noticing some seemingly too high numbers showing on 'New Stories'. I kind of figured it was the author's followers checking in early.

That depends. SciFi doesn't get many views in general but they are avid voters when they like something, which is mostly longer series focusing on the story rather than sex.

My followers seem to all be in Shanghai-La. Supposedly there are 212 of them, but eight people voted for my most recent story and there were no comments. I guess they are enjoying the pool.

I thought I was going to have to eat my hat on my 2025 prediction of no Red H for me - my second 2025 VD entry looked like it had a Red H a couple of moments until it settled down. For a short while it had 4.5 with 18 votes at around 1100 views.

 

[StillStunned]

I just woke up, and my story now has 12 votes from 216 views. The red H must have come from somewhere around 180-190 views, I reckon.

The nice thing is that the earlier chapters in the series have also all had more views and votes.

 

[BobbyBrandt]

This one started low and has stayed there:

After 767 days, it still gets only 1.16 views per day, but they appear to be mostly "good" views.

 

[ShamBaLa]

Good question.
https://literotica.com/s/winstons-take-me-clubbing. Winston's take me Clubbing. 3k views. Only 19 votes, 4.53. It will probably go lower with more votes. Dropped 19 December 24. It's a continuation of https://literotica.com/s/babysitting-for-the-winstons Babysitting for The Winston's riding at 4.68 on 263 votes and 25.5k views. So part 1 is appreciated and the sequel is slow to gain viewers. Hmmm.

 

[StillStunned]

My latest, a 750-word offering, has reached the red H after only a little more than 100 views:

 

[jaF0]

4.5 on 10 votes and 141 views. (I could swear it jumped about 20 views just recently).

The Butterfly is fluttering up bit by bit though having started off quite low.

What pen name? Nothing shows up under your name.

 

[TarnishedPenny]

I’ve had just 10, but of course briefly. Twelve votes (or 0600 MST) is generally when my devoted troll shows up.

Yeah it is.

Thanks, for some reason your name didn't come up in author search.

Member search is glitched out right now. Reports are in about it.

How can there be one with a 5.0 rating on 22 votes?

Or am I misreading what the Gold Star means?

Easy. Some one (or more than one) has given it a 5.

If it's your story, your Control Panel will show how many votes the story has received. The CP tracks well ahead of any other page showing story stats, including the story's front page. Nothing is ever in synch.
