50,000 Subscribers

Postby Dr. Goodword » Wed Jan 23, 2013 11:56 pm

Sometime last week our 50,000th subscriber signed up for the e-mail delivery of the GW. About half that number is active.

WOW!

Can you easily figure out how many different subscribers posted last year? Regardless, 50K is impressive.

No, phBB doesn't create traffic summaries--that I know of.

Perry, I do believe you are confusing the e-mail recipient number with the number of Agorans. There is a huge difference.

According to the Index page there are 1,254 people who have signed up to the Agora. The Members page isn't entirely accurate, but some 460 of the people who have ever signed up have made at least one post.

I know this isn't what you were looking for, but perhaps it will help you figure out what's up.

Personally, I'd love to know what it means that only about half of the subscribers are active.

Thanks for the numbers. Actually, we don't know whether they are active or note. Many, I suspect, are lurkers, reading but not commenting. I also do Facebook, and many of my real friends, as opposed to virtual, tell me from time to time they enjoy or agree with my posts. My eldest son signed up on FB and has never posted. He frequently scans to see what other family members are doing. I suspect there are readers who for whatever reason never comment. Wish they would, but glad they read.
