RE: Support Forums Starting To Pick Up Nicely - NekoChan - 09-03-2010
I have been away for a long time and the things are going only upwards.
I'm really glad to see a good community here and the forum going good.
3 Cheers for Omni, Hip Hip Hurrray!

It seems to me lots come here striving for the award and then end up getting hooked. I myself got interested in the site a few days ago. I don't know what got me to want to post here, but I like this forum a lot. It's coming along nicely.

I joined this forum for the HF award.. Now I don't even go on HF very often and focus all my attention on this great community.

All I go on HF anymore for is my new project to bring back the quality in some troll infested places and making it all around better. The people that help me are all usually on not until later and even then I'm still on here XD

I go on both and try to help out as much as I can over at the Virus removal boards.
Love this site, as well as HF.

Update on this thread.
SF since Sept 2010 has grown in activity by about 70%. We were doing 800 visits per day at the time and now it's 1300 per day. Most of that traffic has been search engines. One of the weaknesses I pointed out before. We have a strong balance of traffic between search engines, direct navigation, and referrals. IMHO the right formulated balance that we'll continue growing.
Our biggest weakness holding us back now is Bounce Rate. That's the percentage of people that view one page and click away. It's high at about 55% and we should be under 40% imho. Example is Hf is at 30%. So I'm going to work on that next. Probably going to mean some changes to the site but I'll try to push these changes to guest viewing. Members will hopefully be less restricted.

Thanks for the update. How do you plan to decrease bounce rates?
One thing I like about SF, is even though it's primarily compiled of HF users it weeds out all of the 'bad' memebrs and you have a forum of supportive members.

Thanks for the update Omniscient and also I like to congratulate you for making this site a success.
