Re: We're 18 Today

That would be Ashley

Just to put these figures into a wider context.

LB started in May 2007 and to date has 13399 registered members in 3 1/2 years (42 months)
(The number discrepancy is due to deleted users, so actual registrations are 13461)

So that's roughly 320 per month from day one averaged out.


CAG started in Jan 2006 with 272017 that's 4690 per month.
Most of these would of been while Bank Charges where making the headlines and a lot of media coverage.


"My" site has been going since Oct 2002 and has 820,209 registered members.

So that's roughly 8540 per month.
Sounds like alot, but when you bear in mind we use professional SEO (aka How to get TOP on Google searches) people and have a global reach it soon changes the picture somewhat.

While I have my sad stats hat on, lets have a look at threads and posts

LB: 20,654 and 167,862 (posts per thread: 8)
CAG: 249,570 and 3,047,885 ( Posts per: 12)
AMHD: 478,648 and 2,428,837 (posts per: 5)

Just goes to show who's more focused

What's AMHD Curly?

Re: We're 18 Today

Just caught up with this thread and would like to also throw something else into the mix that would cock up the figures.

Of the ? thousand members on each of the forums, many have multiple usernames, although many of their previous ones may have been banned, it over inflates member numbers and is difficult to calculate its extent.

Other than Nattie :tinysmile_hmm_t2: we have very few members that have registered multiple usernames, usually they just ask us for a name change.

Re: We're 18 Today

Wicked ! not that we're competitive or anything

No of course not and so you won't be at all interested to know that as of today Beagles are just 48 places behind CAG in terms of UK ranking, according to Alexa:

CAG national rank by traffic - 1835
Beagles national rank by traffic - 1883

http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/legalbeagles.info

http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/consumeractiongroup.co.uk

And given the trends of the global rankings over the past 3 months it won't be long before we're in front, not that you'd care eh?

Re: We're 18 Today

You`re completely correct, we don`t refresh the alexa page as soon as it hits midnight at all. It comes as a great shock to both of us competitive.....us.......wouldnt dream of it :doggieyes:

Re: We're 18 Today

You`re completely correct, we don`t refresh the alexa page as soon as it hits midnight at all.

Me neither so that makes at least 3 of us that don't know that we gained another 10 places today.

Re: We're 18 Today
