Is there a way to do this?Thanks,MichelleHi Michelle. Welcome to the forums!As far as I know, there is no way for you to find out this information, and I am not even sure if Evernote tracks the metrics. Link to comment
Level 5* gazumped 12,154 Posted May 13, 2012 Level 5* Share Posted May 13, 2012 Hi Michelle - as GM says, there's nothing you can add to Evernote to get full feedback, but you might be able to socially-engineer some responses by including a link to allow people to add themselves to a mailing list, vote on a relevant topic, or enter some sort of competition. You could then add a counter of some sort to the linked page. There's no guarantee all of your visitors will hit that link (in fact you're guaranteed only a proportion will do so..) but the feedback will at least give you some indication that you're getting some traffic to the notes.

MichelleLin 0 Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Thank you for the prompt responses. I was afraid that you'd say that there's no way of tracking. That's too bad. I'll go with plan B as suggested (polling the readers). Thanks! Link to comment
heather 604 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Theoretically, you could add google-analytics code (or some other tracking code) into the notes themselves, which would then be tracked.I haven't actually tested this, but each time a note is loaded, it does activate *basic* html code within, and there are some examples that it can do some more advanced work if you code something in an iframe.So, I'd say - edit your notes to include tracking code within an iframe so it loads every time those notes are hit and there you go.

MichelleLin 0 Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 Intriguing idea about embedding code. The extent of my coding knowledge unfortunately is that I understand what you are saying but don't know HOW to code it. i'll check around with some local friends to see I can figure out. Thanks!
