Wow! I just glanced over at the hit counter in the right hand column and noticed that this site has just passed the 70 million hits milestone.

Not bad for a little two-bit forum site, eh? :thumbsup:
 
I think most of them were me, lol.
Seriously, though, that's quite a milestone. :thumbsup:
 
Now if you only had a nickel.......ah never mind! Congrats Rich and Thanks for the site/forums!

Actually when I think about it, that counter is probably a real good representation of every hair on my head that has turned gray and fallen out because of this site.... Or maybe the number of Excedrins I have taken over the years........ :notallthe
 
This site is just great and it's no wonder it's had that many hits!!! This site has everything. Thanks Rich!!:dancer01: Take a bow Mr. Rich :IThankYou
 
That is truly a mind boggling number when you really think about it. Congrats, Rich!
 
Honestly, it's not me making this site what it is. It's all of you guys. I've been trying different ways to run this site from the beginning, and I think I've settled in to what seems to work best. Kind of a benign dictatorship. Hands off didn't work. TOO MUCH hands on didn't work. Letting people pay into the ability to mod this site didn't work. Requiring payment for certain features or accessibility didn't work.

So I think I'm pretty much settled in on how this site needs to be now, if the increase in traffic is any good indication. If I can make a few bucks off of advertisers and memberships, which is DIRECTLY related to traffic, then that's all I need to make my retirement survivable.

You all can help by spreading the word. Get people to advertise their animals, hard goods, and services here. THAT is what will help more then anything else. Traffic to a site is pretty much like rolling a snowball down a steep hill. The more traffic it has, the more traffic it picks up. People need a reason to come to a site, and from what I have seen other people already being there is the most compelling incentive for that to happen

Thank you, everyone.... :bow01:
 
Rich,

I know I said I'd remind you in August but since you're here and on the subject...

I had brought this idea up about stickers similar to the flyers you sent me (which I am working my through the stack you sent me) to put on the boxes and cups of crickets I sell. Depending on the show I could easily go through a couple hundred. Food for thought ...:shrug01:

David,

Yes, it is a good idea, but with 5,000 snakes hatching out right now, there is no way I can add something else to my plate.........
