Expert: Katie - 8/20/2007

Question
I am a new expert (thank you) and I have answered 9 questions but only 2 have read the answers and only 1 has rated my answer. I have sent them answers by email, and rating reminder emails.

My question is: is this common? Are there any percentages of reader read answers, or reader rated answers? I would think that they would want to know the answer if they took the time to ask the question.

Answer
Of the  3,553 questions asked since Jan 1, 2007
85% were answered
80% of the answers were read and
39% of answers read received ratings

So yes, those counts are a bit below average for your category.

Let me know when you've reached 30 questions. If your statistics continue to be low, perhaps we can review your answers to see what is causing this.
