Default DestinationClubForums Website Traffic

Seems like the traffic and activity on this website is really increasing at a healthy pace. The member count keeps going up, but even more impressive are the healthy number of non-members that are perusing this site.

DC4MS - Thanks for putting this great resource together. Are you willing to share any stats?

Very impressive stats, particularly considering the number of members of DCs at this point. How does it compare to last year?

I did not keep stats then when the forums was on a slow shared web hosting plan.

I think I signed up for Google Analytics in Jan or Feb of this year, but it has been growing (organically) very nice, especially once I move the site to its own server.

Great job DC4MS!! I for one did majority of research on this forum website. You never know if the member service directors are just trying to "sell" you, but this website has so much information and opinions that I felt so informed after 6 months of reading all the threads. Of course I did my due dilligence with the clubs I was comparing, but without this forum I still would have felt a little blind going in! Thanks again for all your hard work! Great job!

This really is an excellent forum and so much more informative and authentic then Halogen. I like that there are no DC advertisers or conflicts of interest!

We have had a 2-3x increase in traffic this week.

Most of the members on here appear to be HCC. If this club fails, don't you think your traffic will crash as well?

That is the LAST thing I am worried about.

Even if HCC liquidates, the members will continue to use the forum to argue the virtues of the new resignation policy and whether members should receive equity in the now-defunct club!

that was no longer true, until the day of success plan announcement, which triggered a lot of new HCC registrations. (of course were only talking about registered users who identify their club here.)

a number of PE/UR members also joined during that merger.
