We need more Crew3 campaigns
I already miss the excitement. Remember the days when there were bounties for you to gather. You were scrambling to figure out what task you missed and what else you needed to do to score a few points. Well, that’s true for me and some 40 odd leofinance users who took part (seriously) in the recently completed crew3 campaigns.
I think the event was a grand success. I managed to reach the 15th position and received 5K Leo Power in delegation from the team. The crew3 event was a genius of a masterstroke 
@rmsadkri and microblogging
I have been a regular Leo threads user from the beginning. I genuinely believe that the short form content is how information is consumed by the masses. The long form posts are for intellectual discourse and for other objectives. Microblogging gives you freedom. Mass adoption of Hive content will happen if we can make the consumption fun.
We need a little push to make sure this alpha UI has a critical mass of users by the time we are in production. The genuine engagement we had from various communities on threads during the event has slowed down a bit. There are a couple of communities like #silverbloggers managed to maintain the threading streak. Apart from that I do not think I am seeing members from other communities are threading regularly. I could be wrong.
What does Bing AI has to say about Leofinance?
Well, that’s that. My main point here is to share a fact that I found while playing with the new Bing AI. The Edge browser has Bing AI incorporated in the side bar. The AI can access the webpage users are viewing (if given access) and provide them with nice insights. I wanted to see what information Bing AI will give when I am on alpha UI. Turns out, there are interesting sets of information.
The first piece of information displayed as a “info-snap” from leopedia.io. It means the AI took information from the leopedia page to display and provided a link for users to follow through.
The AI was wrong in categorizing the site. The site was linked to an accounting firm in Paris with the same name. I followed the link, and it was to the LinkedIn page of the firm in Paris. AI is not always right, mind you.
Just to note- the data displayed by Bing is based on anonymous data aggregation from Bing and Edge. There is only a tiny percentage of users out there using edge browser and Bing search.
With this data source caveat, it is safe to say that 42% of the users accessing Leofinance from edge browser are from the US followed by India, South Africa and Venezuela. Interesting stuff.
The insights also displayed the data on monthly traffic. Interestingly the graph showed a 30% monthly increase to January 2023 and then a 35% drop in February showing the traffic was higher in January than in December and February. There is no March data yet.
Thirty percents of the users come to leofinance.io using search engines (Bing in this case) and 70% from other websites. Interestingly, the top three contributing sites are peakd.com, crew3.xyz and hive.io. I am amazed how much impact the recent crew3 event had on leofinance website.
I know that this data is just a subset of a larger dataset. However, it provides a glimpse of the value the crew3 campaign had in bringing traffic to leofinance. The crew3 page is the second biggest traffic source just after a month-long campaign. Imagine what we can do with sustainable and ongoing campaign up until December 2023. This will be massive.
