Year-end Statistics for the WSA Online Forum

[Richard]

I looked at the Members listing for the WSA Online Forum and did some comparisons.

As of Jan. 20, 2009 there are 2,170 Forum members
We hit the 2,000 mark back in early November, 2008.

In 2008, 891 new people joined the Forum
that is about 73 a month.

Numbers picked up at the end of the year.

Nov. 20, 2007 - Jan. 20, 2008 : 53 new people joined.
Nov. 20, 2008 - Jan. 20, 2009 : 130 new people joined.

So we are growing!!

Note that these numbers do not include those who joined but never posted at all. Periodically, every 6 months or so, Erin takes out those who have never posted, unless they ask to remain on the Forum.

About 10% of those who join, post within a month or less, and of course more post later on.
