Yeah, I was interested in your story because I wondered if others were seeing their earnings fall, but this month is better for me - although June and July were truly awful! So it's about time!

I hope it continues, but it may just be fluke. Time will tell. One story that I hoped would do well has flopped again. The read ratio is low and I don't understand it.

I had a look back at Buster's story and I think he's saying a 'read' now means your story was viewed for 30 seconds or more, but it's not as clear as it might be. I think 1 second views still count as views. Overall, this means our read rates should go up... so I can't understand why one of my better stories has such a poor read ratio.

Have you seen your earnings falling because of the new algorithm?
