I wanted to ask a question and see if what everyone likes about sites -

BAsically I’m making a site and I wanted to know of all the little interactive elements on sites that you like

For example, on blogs you can -

Leave comments

Like an article like on Facebook

Share on Facebook

Tweet

Digg an article

Rate an article out of 5 / Or rate a picture out of 5 stars

Does anybody know of any other cool stuff that you’ve seen on some sites that you use or you think is cool for whatever reason?

Little interactive elements

Would love to know

Thanks in advance people :slight_smile:

I keep a short list of tools to remind me of ideas or to generate new ones. Per post, I try to consider whether one or more of the following would be appropriate:

  1. Links (affiliate, inter-linked, etc.)
  2. Original image
  3. Video
  4. Audio
  5. Some sort of statistics generated by Google Charts
  6. A survey regarding the post’s content
  7. A pdf, exe, or something else to download
  8. A form to fill out
  9. Some sort of relevant JavaScript calculator
  10. Some sort of task for the visitor to run and do :slight_smile:

The list is short, but the tasks can be time consuming when you have thousands of posts to go through…

…and then there’s the marketing.
