If you are new, you may be surprised to see this post. Early on in the Classifieds, some members asked for a sneak peek into the behind the scenes of the group, which I thought was a great idea, so it became a regular feature.While I don’t track most of these things in my other paid group, I do think they’re important here because the focus of the group is on visibility and growth. Total Members: 271 Overall Discovery Ranking: #302 Discovery Ranking #125 in Money (+37) About Page Visitors 300 (+132) Sign Ups 59 (+14) Conversions 19.67% (-7.12) Highest Activity: 902 on Tuesday (+79) Lowest Activity: 410 on Monday (+28) The Context: You may have noticed a new stat that I am tracking, and that is the overall ranking in Discovery (out of all the groups in all of the categories). This one is a bit more difficult to track because you have to scroll through Discovery to find your ranking (if anyone knows of an easier way, please tell me!), but we are now ranking high enough that it’s worth it to track. Yay, us! We’ve made another massive jump in the ranking in the Money category, and I just want to thank everyone who has posted, commented, or liked a post. Your efforts and engagement really go a long way towards helping our visibility as a group, which benefits everyone, so keep up the great work!While there are tactics that I could be using to help us climb the charts a bit faster, I’m choosing to focus on authentic relationships and interactions as much as possible. While it may result in a slightly slower growth rate than some similar groups, I believe that in the end it will also result in a much more meaningful and rich group that you will continue to want to come and be a part of. Last week was our biggest growth week, and this week we surpassed that number, so I’m really pleased to see that the word of mouth referrals are working well!!! I am going to start running Meta ads to the Classifieds at the end of the week, so I’m really excited to see how that affects our growth and visibility.
