![]() If you check the previous DevLog about tagging you'll find that I wanted to test how much traffic the Yaoi tag brings. It's important to note this confirms what Nekojishi's data indicated, that Furry and, to a lesser extent, Bara, do bring in page views. It is no surprise, then, that after only one week it is already showing up in other games' Related Games page - at least it's showing up in ours. One could be inclined to discard it, then, but Bara brings a very important benefit: it groups together games which definitely share the same niche audience.Īnother important information about Santa Lucia: it makes good use of its tags (adult, Bara, Dating Sim, Furry, Gay, LGBT, Mystery, nsfw, Romance, Synthwave). As we can see Furry is doing well enough, while Bara is lagging behind. But, most crucially, it gives us insight on how the Furry and Bara tags are performing.įurry brought 286 visits in total, from two origins, and Bara got them 57. ![]() It shows us some insights we had already glimpsed in the previous DevLog: Gay is the main bread winner and having an Android version brings a lot of traffic. The image below is a courtesy of Stormsinger Studios, who let us see the data for their newly-released game Santa Lucia. So, in a sense, a new game's launch gives us a very unique opportunity to verify how more discreet tags are doing. This means that after a while, when big referrers have piled up, it becomes impossible to track down the smaller ones. ![]() How are the Bara and Furry Tags Doing so Far?īefore we start there is something which must be made clear about how Itch tracks where clicks come from: it only shows the top 20 referrers. Remember this name, it will be important in one of the points down the line. Without their support ( and delicious data) those findings wouldn't have been possible. We think it's an important topic and figured keeping it for the right moment would be smart. So keep that mind - the data we are showing here came from a few weeks ago unless otherwise stated.īefore we start I must make a shout out to all the people involved with BaraJam 2019 and BaraJam 2018. ![]() We intended on publishing it back then but chose instead to leave it for when we were closer to Build 0.2. This DevLog was written a few weeks ago, about 14 days after we posted a very extensive DevLog about Itch's tagging system and how to use it if you are making a gay visual novel. We are so close to releasing Build 0.2, less than 48 hours remaining! Hello everyone! I hope you are all doing well today. ![]()
