SONBC: Blog Ratings

Featured Replies

  • Member

I thought it would be a neat idea to really make the blog writers feel like their web soaps are like the real soap operas on TV. To do that, I came up with a way to track down the views of each soap. It's going to be like the SON version of the Neilson Ratings. The current soaps on air right now that will be documented are as followed:

King Reilly's Blog

The World of Oakdale

Life in Salem

Salem Lives

Port Charles Hospital

Our Days in Salem

Life in Oakdale

Moments of Existance

The Island

The Light

The way the ratings will work is like this: this Sunday, I will mark down what the ratings for each web soap at Midnight, Monday morning (Sunday night, whatever). Then, the following week, the following Sunday, I will mark down teh total views that Sunday night at 11:59. Then, after all ratings for individual web soaps are tallied, I will then add up the total views and then individual divide each soap's ratings by the total ratings to get the average. That is the number that will be recorded.

I hope you all don't mind. This truly makes things more realistic. I also have a magazine in mind and hope to get that rolling by the beginning of the new year :)

Haha, yes I think King's blog is going to be the Y&R of websoaps. Hopefully, you other writers will pull in the big ratings! LOL.

I'll have to up the ante now! No more boring episodes. LOL! This is fun!

I think I'm gonna change my blog. From a GL fan-fic to my own original series, "ALL OR NOTHING" I'll let you guys know something. But I love this ratings idea.

Correct, Amello. The ratings tally start tonight at midnight and will continue through the week until next Saturday at 11:59.

Is anyone else as excited as I am to see the results? Well im sure we all know who will finish in first, cough *KR* cough, but it will still be interesting.

Oh, man! This week didn't count!? Damn! I totally amped up all of my stories this week. LOL. [!@#$%^&*]. Oh well! Good luck, everyone. I swear blogs were like the best thing to happen to SON. :)
