(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ Omona 2013! Compiled Poll Results & info

POPCORN TIMEEEEE!


The last week and a half has been explosive @ Omona. You all have done a great job of making posts and encouraging others. Lets keep the trend going! This post is a helpful compilation of the things we learned from my original post.



Things that omona wants to see more of and enjoys:

-Fashion & Makeup posts ex:1, 2 & 3
-Drama discussion & recaps
-LIVE STREAMING POSTS
-Who Whore It Better
-AIRPORT PHOTOS
-Candid or paparazzi shots
-More cultural/technology/non-celebrity news
-Original content. ex: 1, 2, 3 & 4
-More articles on North Korea. ex: 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5

And as always Omona wishes for more nude posts & sex tape leaks.


& What did those poll results tell us? The following information comes from the small group of people (486) who took the time to fill out the poll. Thanks guys.


Most people who took the poll became a member of Omona in 2009 (30.9%) & most people learned about Omona in 2009 (46.5%)

How often do people who read Omona comment?

When it comes to people who do comment, (22.9%) comment rarely, (21.4%) comment periodically, (21.0%) comment every few days, and (5.8%) comment daily. So it was a very close race between people who comment but not all that often.

When it comes to the people who chose the never option, (17.9%) of the people chose the too shy or intimidated option. It was a close tie between being uninterested (5.2%) and not being able to comment because they weren't a member (5.8%).

How often do people submit posts to the community for approval?

Suprisingly (0.0%) submit daily (I swear it feels like some people post every day) while (3.2%) will submit a post a few times a week and (6.3%) will submit a post a few times a month. This was followed by people who don't submit posts because they don't know how (14.3%), people who post a few times a year (18.4%), people who are too shy to post (21.9%) and finally people who are uninterested in posting (35.9%)


How often do these people who took the poll visit?

Of the people who took the poll, (0.4%) said they visit rarely. (3.3%) of the people polled said they visit periodically. The highest percentage of votes came from the people who chose the often option (18.5%) and the daily option of (77.8%)

So it looks like the majority of people who use Omona keep coming back.

IT MUST BE ALL OUR CHARMS!

What about friendship?

When it comes to friendships within Omona (31.4%) said they had friends within the community, while (68.6%) said they did not. (43.3%) of the people polled felt it was not difficult to make friends, while (56.7%) did feel it was difficult to make friends within the community.

I think Omona wants to be friends with each other but is kinda scared. Aww :(

(63.4%) of the people polled have recommended Omona to a friend while only (36.6%) has not.



In conclusion:

People of Omona love posts, they just don't comment a lot. Mostly due to being shy or feeling they have nothing to add to what has already been said or expressed. There is also the possibility that a lot of people who view Omona read the community because they're just learning & feel more comfortable lurking. It can be difficult to jump into a conversation when you feel you aren't as knowledgeable as others.

For people that make posts...

We know you work hard to bring news to the community, but don't feel bad if your post doesn't get a ton of comments, because a lot of people are looking! And a lot of people do appreciate what you're doing. They just need a nudge, and one of the best ways to get people talking is to ask them an easy question they can answer. Ex: If a celebrity posts pictures of their dog, ask members to share pictures and stories of their own pets. Asking detailed questions that only members of that fandom would be able to answer will exclude a lot of people.

Our Google Analytics result for the month of December 2012:


In the past 9 days we've received 205k visits from 91k unique visitors. It's been a bit intense. Hopefully this small example shows you the amount of comments is in no way a reflection of how many eyes your posts reach.

The mods want to once again thank everyone who contributes! Please keep posting & always remember, LJ-CUTS, POLLS & BOLDING are your friends :D


TYFYT! We hope everyone keeps enjoying & contributing to Omona in 2013!

YES EVERYONE, I WANT TO BE FRIENDS!

I have noticed after the poll thing, more people are commenting on posts, so I take that this is a good sign for the start of 2013!

You would be a very nice choice for a friend! <3
markthatcoin 10th-Jan-2013 01:20 am (UTC)
thanks shanny_w and all the mods ^^ you're fab!

i also think omona loves polls, they seem like a good jump-off point for discussion

shanny_w 10th-Jan-2013 01:27 am (UTC)
No problem :D I really hope this helps people in some way. I also want to try and do a post with more interesting info from our google analytics, but I have to find the time to do it.
xredada 10th-Jan-2013 01:21 am (UTC)
I've been on omona for some years now but can honestly say that I don't have a single friend here. Wow.

And I wanna try posting articles but have no idea how to even attempt this. Some day~
shanny_w 10th-Jan-2013 01:23 am (UTC)
Some of our mods are working on tutorials for making posts. I don't know when they'll be out. Hopefully within the month.
chloe1910 10th-Jan-2013 01:28 am (UTC)
Thank you to all the mods for your hard work. May 2013 be a better year for everyone ^^

This was really interesting!

Omona has definitely exploded over the past week and a half. I love that all it took was a little nudge to get people posting and commenting more often. Let's keep it up Omona =D! Don't be afraid to comment. Everyone was a kpop, kdrama, or Korean culture junkie newbie at some point so don't let that worry you. I'm interested in everyone's opinions too! Not just the ones that agree with my own (how boring otherwise~)!!

I'll keep trying to do my part to bring more...
comments

to Omona!
shanny_w 10th-Jan-2013 01:41 am (UTC)
I just saw in our profile that we are nearing the 4million comment mark! 3,961,482 comments received.

& It's kind of funny that we have like 14 times the amount of people reading Omona than there are actual members. NK better watch out cause Omona is the new hermit kingdom!

Aw I missed the poll post.
These results are not surprising.
hipployta 10th-Jan-2013 01:40 am (UTC)
I kind of lurked my first coule of years and when i finally decided to join in 2011 i got denied as a possible fake account lol. It wad soon resolved. I make posts occassionally
lee_chikin 10th-Jan-2013 12:20 pm (UTC)
Well, I chuckled XD
woohyun 10th-Jan-2013 01:40 am (UTC)
shanny_w for PM!!!
shanny_w 10th-Jan-2013 01:49 am (UTC)
Do I get an orange kitten? :O
asnindie 10th-Jan-2013 01:41 am (UTC)
THis is the only kpop site I even visit so it's nice to see more traffic, all the posts saying Omona was dead are dead wrong then:P

shanny_w 10th-Jan-2013 01:48 am (UTC)
That's why I want to make a post about stuff that isn't apparent when just scrollin through. & hopefully people will feel even more happy to be apart of the community.
angela_derp_otp 10th-Jan-2013 01:44 am (UTC)
I really want to make friends and be more active but i'm really awkward & I've tried posting in a couple FFAs but again, awkward! I don't think I have enough charms yet lol.

OTL.

I'll try to contribute to the comm, I'm leaving for Korea in a couple of weeks so maybe I can make a post about JaeJoong's concert or... idk kpop stuff / korea in general while I'm there, i guess~ c:


I visit Omona because I love the comments, is very diverse even if it gets a little out of hand sometimes. This is the only k entertainment website in english I visit as well.

Edited at 2013-01-10 01:46 am (UTC)
shanny_w 10th-Jan-2013 01:54 am (UTC)
If you can create a well written review of his concert it will get accepted! I think one encouraging benefit of doing an original post is that you don't have to worry about someone else submitting the same thing and getting your post rejected.

I'm really happy to hear that you chose omona as your spot to get news in english :D
lysblack 10th-Jan-2013 01:51 am (UTC)
this was so interesting, thank you shanny_w and all the mods for the hard work!

Suprisingly (0.0%) submit daily (I swear it feels like some people post every day)

ia, i feel like some people submit things daily!
shanny_w 10th-Jan-2013 01:57 am (UTC)
Maybe they missed the poll? I only featured it for a day then never retweeted. Or maybe they didn't choose that option because sometimes they skip a day or two? Maybe they'll say in the comment. But damn some of you are keepin this place afloat! PRAISE YOUR LIGHT!!
in_noctem 10th-Jan-2013 01:56 am (UTC)
Funny you mention a celeb posting a photo of their dog because I've been meaning to make a post on celeb pets but I don't know what the post will be about. Omona's favourite dog/cat/other small animals? And that'll probably be like a bajillion animals in one post unless I separate them.
in_noctem 10th-Jan-2013 01:56 am (UTC)
And sourcing the post will be a nightmare lol.
shortysc22 10th-Jan-2013 01:56 am (UTC)
I've definitely noticed us being more active this past week and last Friday's FFA was the most fun I've had in one in a long time. I love the mods here, I think you do a great job! *round of applause*
lastofthewildes 10th-Jan-2013 01:58 am (UTC)
Woah, I didn't know Omona had google analytics stats. Sexy.

I'm mostly a lurker and am typically too shy to post/comment, but I always creep on the threads. >.>

Thanks for all of your hard works, mods! ♥ It was cool getting a statistical viewpoint of the habits that make up Omona's readers.
