Hi all,
I know there are a lot of Expertscolumn members in mylot too. So do you guys tweet your articles? The admin says that use social networking to get more views. But I found out that tweeter views aren't counted. In fact, we don't get views after tweeting. At least I didn't get any. How about you? Its bad news indeed.

Oh how? What is the reason for that? Did you contact the admin for a second time? If not look what he says. If you have violated any rules, just tell them that you won't repeat the same again. May be they may re-think. But write back to them only if you are interested in going back. Otherwise, don't use your energy there.

Well, I don't mind writing to the admin about your case if you allow me to. If I can be of any help to you, I will be in this way.

Actually, it's really frustrating to know that our tweets don't count that much.
I still use the twitter but I can see that the views are very rare compared before.
But I don't have many social sites to share my articles/links- so I still use the twitter.

What did you say, "our tweets don't count that much"? Mate, they are not counted at all. Of course, I too use it, but I am getting frustrated with this fact of the tweets not getting counted at all. When I used to tweet before, as you said, the views increased immediately. But the same is not the case now. You can use Facebook to share you articles. I think your friends will view them.

I think you are from Philippines, aren't you? I think the Twitter policy should be the same everywhere. You are probably getting some views, it looks. However, I am not getting even a single. I am from India. I too don't share the EC links at any other place other than Twitter.

Well I am not sure if tweet doesn't work only in your country.
Like I wrote- it doesn't count that much because my views really decrease compared before but I only share my articles through TWITTER and I am still getting views.
I don't share my EC links to any other sites aside from Twitter.

Actually, there is a "Tweet" button to the top right of the article. I guess it is for tweeting articles only, right? If that is so simple logic, why aren't the views increasing? The admin is asking us to use social networks and yet we are not getting the views. That's strange.

Can they really tell where all the views come from? I was thinking about this the other day. Take care.

Yes, it is possible to know where the views are coming from. And one thing is certain that they are not coming from Twitter. So, that's the bone of contention at the moment. You can view it from the details in the traffic stats over there.

Well, it doesn't really sound too good to find someone in your position. It is indeed sad to see people wanting to join a particular site and they are not able to. What more should I say? I will repeat the same thing that I have in the above response. I can write to the admin about your problem. I will indeed like to see you people active there. Let me know.

@2lines,
No one can specifically tell you how many views one gets on EC. It depends on the articles and many more other things. The trending topics can give more views. It dawned to me yesterday that I was just making futile labor and that I wasn't getting any views from Twitter. I mean I thought I was getting views. It was a misunderstanding and I was under wrong impression.
As far as Squidoo is concerned, I am a member of the site but not at all active there. I mean I just signed up and never went back there. So, I cannot comment anything about that. And from my experience I am saying, it would not be right to expect anything from only 10 views.
@Swats89,
Even I don't know if Squidoo pays for the pageviews or not. Yes, EC is fine and they do pay well. But the problem is what I mentioned above - the twitter views not being counted.
