i took the time to check the reports of SpritesMind.net domain.

I discover some interesting things

1/ almost every visitors comes directly/only to this forum
:arrow: I'm happy and sad at the same time
Happy because it means this forum is a success
Sad because my others stuff are here for nothing...I took me so many hours to make this website....well...let's keep the positive point of view ;)

2/ Avg 374 visitors/day
:arrow: it's not so much...but it's also why this place is good to be ;)
I don"t like the crowd!
for me, it's only people looking for this forum find it...so only people REALLY interesting in genesis dev...

3/ 1500 visitors on 31 december!!!
:arrow: you're crazy ;)

4/ top page : viewtopic.php and login.php
:arrow: definitly it's forum only ;)

5/ +95% visitors come without referal...
:arrow: it seems you all have spritesmind in your favorite ;)

6/ top keyword : gens kmod, spritesmind and...tfm music maker
:arrow: not very surprising...I already noticed TFM success

7/ top countries : net, com...and hk, jp
:arrow: it's a big surprise for me...hk and jp weren't a lot here on 2007
this year, they are already 10% EACH of the visitors
hk, i suppose it's because of the hardware talk
jp, I REALLY hope you find some interesting stuff!!
if you're from hk or jp, drop me a PM, i really would like to know why you're here, what you're looking for...


that's all....
the result is : SpritesMind is no longer a website with a forum, it is a forum ;)
I already noticed this, releasing stuff on the website without post here...and see if someone notice :roll: (answer is 'no' if you want to know)
I'll soon update the main page to make it even more clear.
Don't know if i'll still main the web page thought...

thanks guys, it's all because of you and the quality of your posts!


oh, and this time I paid the bill right on time so you won't have a awful 404 error like last year :oops:

Well, if you look at the news page, you don't have much new very often. :) You also usually make major announcements related to the page here in the forum, so I just come straight to the forum.

SpriteMind is definitely my favorite place for Genny news and info. You get to see a lot of nifty projects and sometimes even a behind-the-scenes look at them from the developer. 8)

Thanks for keeping this going! :D

374 visitors a day is good, especially if they're mainly interested in Genesis development. And, I would guess most people don't visit every day. That equals quite a few people interested in Genesis development.

ah ah!
thanks guys!
It wasn't the goal of this post, but thanks ;)

oh, and the ads you could see on the website isn't a result of this analyse.
I needed a place to test widgetbucks, sorry for that so...
