It’s impressive to say the least. I am starting to get worried about my bandwidth now, it has used more than most sites will do a month and we are only 2 days in. Still I think I should be ok as long as there isn’t an explosion of traffic on other sites. But that is beside the point; this post is about it getting a lot of traffic.
It has had January 1st and 2nd and the first two hours of the 3rd since the stats updated. And so far it has 450 uniques! Ok, I realize many sites do better but compare it to the other sites that I have. Erica Planet which for unique counts was about my highest – it has 188 so far.
The average user stays for 3 pages on Erica Planet. Mworld is going one better than that and holding them for 4. Although that does not factor in my use of the site which has been fairly heavy as I battled to get all the content online. 450 uniques though, that would put it in the region of 6000 a month if it sustains.
The thing is, until a few days ago I hadn’t updated mworld for an entire year! I updated it Christmas 2003 and then finally, on the 2nd of January 2005. No updates throughout 2004 and it still has this traffic. That shows you how much the search engines value the length of time a site has been up.
