There are a few ways to get more visibility for your projects:

1. Tags. Projects that are tagged are easily found not only from Scratch members but also I've found that other websites link to groups of projects tagged in Scratch.

2. Comment on other people's projects. If you comment and give constructive feedback to others people tend to click on your username and look at your projects and even post comments. Do not respond to mean and negative comments though, just ignore those.

3. Find people with similar interests. People with specific and similar interests tend to look at each others projects more. For example, if you like to make projects about "chocolate cookies" (just an example) then find people who make projects about the same topic or about "cookies" or "food". Then you can even create projects together. This leads sometimes to having galleries as a place to share this common interests.

3.1 Galleries are good, but only specific ones!. I have seen people creating galleries where they invite people to put "anything". These galleries are not useful because they tend to grow so much, become too crowded and without any specific direction. Smaller galleries with very specific topics are better.

4. Get your friends from real life (school or from your neighborhood) to use Scratch and participate on the Scratch website. It's very likely that if they are friends in real life they will look at your projects more often.

5. Use sprites made by others. For example, MyRedNeptune and other people have created galleries where you can ask them to draw something for you so you can use it in your projects. They are great artists and programmers who can help you create really cool projects. You can use some of their sprites or ask them for some new ones and I am sure they will go and see what you made with those sprites.

6. Be patient and don't seek fame for the sake of fame. Creating projects is first and most importantly something you should make because you like it not only because you want to be famous or to get a lot of people's attention. With time, your projects will get better and better and you'll see you'll get more attention and friends who will look at your projects.

Anyway, these are just some tips that I just thought about. I hope they are useful. Maybe you can create a project describing this tips? ;-)

Thanks a lot for posting your concern,  it made me think about this topic and I like to think about things like that  smile 

Scratch on!

Thanks andres! I tried all of that. Still no recognition.  lol

Re: project unknown (how to get more comments and views)

I pretty much have a total of 7 views on all my projects, most of which were me testing them. In my opinion my projects are all pretty good, some of them really good.
Here's a link to my favorite one--no-one's ever seen it except me:

Re: project unknown (how to get more comments and views)

My question is how to get more people to click the "love it" link?

Many people play my games, like Hangman or Pinball, but they don't click the "love it" link.  When I remind them, they generally click "love it".

Other than pestering them, how can I get more people to click "love it"?

Re: project unknown (how to get more comments and views)

I know. I never hardly get anything with more than 3 views or a single comments, except just once I got 135+ views in 6 days. Then no new views came. I have hope for my first level game, because it will have over 300 scripts it actually needs.

Re: project unknown (how to get more comments and views)

Hi all,
you are looking to do a rotating product image, you can create an animated .gif with several products. However, that doesn't give you a big bang for the buck, as you can only link one URL to an image. If someone likes the product they just saw in one of the image frames, they still have to track it down. So, another solution?
Thanks

You can advertise it in the forums. But it doesn't really help to be jealous of others. But the point of Scratch isn't really getting commented or viewed on your projects, it's about programming and having fun.  smile

I know. It's annoying how people loose popularity. I mean, Light-a-candle has 301 remixes! Wow, last time I checked I only had 294 XP But point is no one does view my projects anymore except a couple loyal fans.  big_smile  Oh well. I'm grateful man X3

Re: project unknown (how to get more comments and views)

People, if you stumble across someone begging for views on the forums, (like me) DONT think it is because their project is no good. my best project has only seven views, and the topic i posted on the forum has been viewed ten times more than that, but i had those views before i posted the topic! if you stumble across someone who wants views, at least take a look.


All hail the Holy Mackrel! God of bad puns!
