Soarer Central is a busy forum.
Last month (June) we had over 60,000 unique visits. Those visitors: Viewed just over 590,000 pages. Downloaded 1.9 million files (images etc). Used over 72Gb of outgoing traffic. Which resulted in just under 5 million "hits".
Which goes to show that "hits" often isn't really the best way to measure how busy a web site really is.
We currently have over 93,000 posts which doesn't count all the buy/sell/junk posts that have been deleted, or the posts in the ALSC archive.
So if you then start to translate that to hardware and bandwidth it starts to add up, don't even think about adding man-hours....
But, we have over 1,500 registered members of which over 1,000 have been active in the last 90 days who all help make this a good forum.
