Most Pop. Articles
Recently we made a change at the bottom of each article where we normally listed about 30 of the most recent articles from the same category. Now, we list about half that and below the most recent are the most popular articles by category.
Located near the bottom of each article:
Some folks have said, “well, that’s brilliant, but really is tainted or skewed to give favor to the oldest articles that have been around longer.
True true.
So my question to you: How long of time should we give articles to properly expose which articles are the most popular in each category without giving unfair weight to the articles that have been around the longest?
Chris, Can you weight the most popular in the last 90 Days with the old articles from 12 months past? This might give a blend of the old and new articles.
