SITE NEWS: Over half a million visitors in March!

Question - (1 April 2008) 43 Answers - (Newest, 5 April 2008)
A male United Kingdom, DearCupid writes:

I'm pleased to say that according to Google Analytics, March 08 was the busiest month ever for Dear Cupid! We had 519,747 unique visitors (i.e. people!) visit the site from 1st March 08 to 31st March 08 inclusive. Over HALF A MILLION people.... cool!

Thanks to the aunts who share their wisdom, the volunteer moderators who help everything run smoothly and of course everyone who shares their problem. Thank you.

Doesn't seem that long since I posted that we'd exceeded the 400,000 visitors/month! Who knows, maybe with a favourable wind we'll hit 1,000,000 visitors a month in 2008 :-)))

Any feedback about the site is of course always most welcome you can either reply in this thread or drop me a private mail.

rhythmandblues2 agony auntFantastic! Since I have been on this site, I have seen the amazing changes and growth and it is quite exciting, I have told all my friends and family that I am an aunt to half a million, wow and me with no children! I enjoy using some of my skills that I don't otherwise have the opportunity to use in my work, and hope I truly have helped at least one sole out there, and I know I have been blessed to make a few friends on this site who have helped me with my own romance, really a Godsend this site, thank you Andrew.

q1605 agony auntwatch out or I might have to bill you. No really I'd pay to be allowed to post here. Where else can someone talk non stop smack and not worry about getting a drink or a fist thrown in their face. This is about the most fun I've ever had with my pants on. Thanks Andrew this truly is a unique place you have created. Its fun and cathartic and helps me feel like a better fit in this world.

Yos agony auntThat's amazing. It really must be one of the busiest (if not the busiest) sites of its type. The volunteer aunts have a lot to do with it, but also I think your eye for very user-friendly page design makes a huge difference. Too many sites think that flashy is what people want, whereas what really works is simple, clear, fast and easy to use. Which sums up DC imho

WizardOfWaz agony aunt"Hey have you been spying on me, Waz??"

Indeed we have Mr A.

We have the very best mincers of beef on the job otherwise known as the infamous Mince Spies.Latest reports suggest that you are now getting so rich that even your servants have their own butlers.

However we scots apreciate your comforting blend of hospitality and thrift when you offered all 500,000 visitors a cup of tea and generously included 500,000 straws so that they could all share it.

Regards, and keep up the good work!

A male reader, WizardOfWaz United Kingdom + , writes (2 April 2008):

WizardOfWaz agony auntUnique concept backed by a technicaly well-constructed site, making it easy to use and simple to moderate.

I like the self-policing element where users can rate or even remove posts themeselves thus keeping things running on a relatively mature leve. Thus allowing the hard-working Andrew the occassional break to concentrate on more important things such as lounging around in his toga while being hand-fed grapes by nubile virgins.

Congrats to all.

Well done Andrew....well done! I can honestly say that I helped by sending 14 people your way and intriducing them to this site. During the week of the 20th, I'll be speaking before a small crowd of 300 young people and I'll definitely

mention "DearCupid.Org" as part of my speech. I know that you'll reach 1 million before this year is out.

I still cannot give sexual advice to what I consider minors and I know that sometimes, I'm a little harsh with the people whom I do give advice to, but that is my way and it is not intended to belittle them...I do hope you understand.
