Showing Traackr score as an absolute value rather than a percentile

Saturday, March 22nd, 2008

Just when you thought you had mastered the subtleties of the Traackr score, we’re turning the tables on you and displaying the score as an absolute value rather than a percentile.

Here’s why.

The score helps you improve your performance by comparing your score to other users’ and see how you can emulate what they do; but also by looking at your score over time and seeing how your promotion experiments pan out.

This is where the score expressed as a percentile is not doing you a favor: because we have many new users signing up every day, everyone’s percentile score is impacted, just because new users automatically change percentile rankings. If there’s more people, it’s harder be in the highest percentiles.

As the user base stabilizes, we may bring back percentiles, because, after all, they’re good measure of great results.

Meanwhile, we will stick with absolute values. Tell us what you think…
