There are lots of factors that affect the number of views a photo will get on
Flickr. First, having a large number of friends and contacts may increase the number of times an image is viewed. Next, the day and time of the upload may have an impact on the number of views. This is due to the fact some people surf the most recently uploaded ones. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, the quality of tags can greatly affect the number of times an image is seen as searches play an important role.
I'm only mentioning these because at times there are photos that I like, which don't always perform well. The photo below was taken at
Deception Pass. It's located nine miles north of Oak Harbor, WA and nine miles south of Anacortes, on
Whidbey Island in the Puget Sound.
I like this photo but after 24 hours only one person has bothered to look whereas silly photos uploaded at the same time have been seen dozens of time. Who can figure?
