3 YEARS & 200 PAGES of OPEN TRADE!!!
🕑 Added 2024-02-01 14:00:11 +0000 UTCAs we approach the 200th page on Monday (Feb 5th) I noticed that today is three years from the start of Open Trade. Stephanie and now Lexi have been on quite a journey over that time. Stephanie being redefined as a tall Amazonian Korean woman. Lexi a very stacked short stack with a Scottish accent. And Isabelle is also there.
I thought I'd take a moment and look back at the stats from the last 3 years and share some highlights.
Most Discussed
Several pages sparked quite a bit of discussion in our comment section. The one with the most comments is.
Pg 136 - Lexi gains some larger knockers.
Runner ups:
Pg 163 - Mystery Person at the door (Yeah, this was a little unfair because it prompts discussion)
Pg 85 - Steph's Exhibitionist Trade
Most Liked
All of the following tied for the most likes.
Pg 60 - Steph has a moment with her Dad
Pg 128 - Steph and Alex discuss their age gap
Pg 141 - Lexi unleashes her 'madams'
Most Read (Views/Impressions)
Patreon shifted counting traffic from Views to Impressions. So I will share the pages with the most Views and the pages with the most Impressions. The pages are pretty clustered. So I'll put it as arcs.
Pg 118-119 - Lexi has her first trade.
Pg 137-144 - Steph has a social change. Steph and Lexi go shopping for bras
Looking to the future!
Over the next year, we will be adding 72 more pages of Open Trade. I have some fun plans. And some ideas on tightening up the story telling. I'm excited and looking forward to the upcoming pages.
What do you hope to see happen over the next year?
-------------------------
A little unrelated, but I'll toss this in because it makes sense.
What are my feelings about stats and metrics?
I love them honestly. I do use them as a guideline to improve. But I would say that I take them seriously, but I don't take them personally.
If one page has a few less views or likes than another page, it doesn't really matter. What I find interesting are anomalies and trends.
If there is a sudden spike, I want to see what caused it. But I'm not just do what caused the spike over and over again. I've done it before. It ends badly and isn't fullfilling creatively.
Trends are important to look at, as they are more of an indicator of health of the story. If something in consistantly underperforming, it might be good to look at what is going on there. I know for me personally, it might be more of a sign that I'm not focused narratively, as opposed to exploring an idea that people don't like. But that is always an option.

Thanks! I think they both will have some fun opportunities to learn about themselves soon.

Congratulations, Rosemead and that’s quite an achievement! I’m hoping there’s some more exploration of Steph’s identity issues and also Lexi and if she’ll find that “one”. But the piercings turned out great on Steph. Can’t wait to see it on Lexi!
