[Meme] AO3 hit counts
Apr. 19th, 2018 09:17 pmIt's that time of year again. :)
Here are the results from 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013 and 2012, for comparison purposes.
I currently have 505 stories posted on AO3, which is 26 more than last year. I think almost all of the new fics were genuinely written during the past year, though I might also have crossposted a few backdated things; I honestly don't remember.
Anyway, here are my top ten works on AO3, by hit count:
1. What Isn't Broken (Can Still Be Fixed) - 24,746 [Naruto, remix]
2. I Must Increase My Bust - 5,815 [Homestuck]
3. Trollstuck: Make Her Pay - 5,723 [Homestuck, chaptered, WIP]
4. With a Vengeance - 5,618 [Naruto]
5. The Way of the Apartment Manager - 5,292 [Naruto, chaptered]
6. More Sins than Condemnation - 5,279 [Naruto]
7. Problems and Solutions (All Things in Time) - 4,931 [Chronicles of Narnia/Stargate: SG-1, remix]
8. Four by Four - 4,833 [Homestuck, chaptered, WIP]
9. Dreamers of the Day - 4,376 [Inception]
10. Of Stone and of Sky - 4,369 [Homestuck, Ladystuck]
This is largely the same as last year, barring a few internal rearrangements -- most notably "The Way of the Apartment Manager" jumping from #10 to #5. I am pleased that my most popular story on other sites is finally picking up steam over here, too, despite its age and backdating. :D (Side note: "Definitions of Romance," another old and backdated fic, has moved to #11 on my hit count list, which is slowly bringing it into line with its performance on other sites.)
"What Isn't Broken" continues to absolutely crush everything else I've ever written, at least on this particular site. I am still unsure why, but hey, if people like it I'm not going to complain. *wry* It also drags its two companion ficlets ("With a Vengeance" and "More Sins than Condemnation") up the rankings... at least in terms of hit count. Their kudos count is more variable.
Anyway, moving on!
( Here are my top ten stories by number of kudos )
The bookmark list continues to share a lot of commonalities with the hit and kudos lists (particularly if you go by the top twenty rather than just the top ten), and the comment list continues to be noticeably different from those three, though this year that discrepancy finally seems to owe as much to comments on multi-chapter fics as to comments on fic exchange works.
