Some you may know that I had some fun with MR yesterday. It got a bit heavy with a few PM's and his usual arrogant self with the RR will not backdown on trolls and change it ways. After he change my username to release my e-mail after one post. I demanded he change it back as he was in breach of privacy rules not only his own, but legally without having permission to release personal information.
Anyways I was banned again - shame!!
BUt another guy Morog also piped up a vet member stating that Mark was crossing the line, no surprise his post dis-appeared then he did as a user.
So I thought I would compile some interesting info for the advertisers of that site and let them make thier own mind up. If you don't spend with him then over time he'll just dis-appear into his own cyberspace along with this cronnies.
Total Memebers apparently is 53100 - nice like this number
Total members never posted = 22700 (hmm...not using the site actively at all)
Total members that have never posted in the last 12mths = 16800 (so not only are a huge bunch not using the site another bunch have not even bothered to post since Jan 2007.
So what....
74% of his members are ghosts. Are they there but just not using it, well that's a possibility but ask yourself. Look at the stats on his site.
Last night he showed over 70k posts in 30 days, thats 5 posts per day between the remaining 13k members that have postsed in the last 12mths is this possible if every member was seriously active.
Well lets say that within the 3mths how many members have posts out of 13k you'd think 90%+ this would show a very active userbase.
hmm. 7400 - ouch 54% of the posts generated in the last 12mths have only happened in the last 3mths.
So he says that RR is very busy and getting major traffic.
Well he slates Alexa statistics that shows a different picture his own stats show a near perfect hit level and page views, but no split on bots or spyders or even true user stats.
Yet if you check out [URL="http://www.alexa.com/"]alexa[/URL] on other well known sites, Facebook, Youtube etc you can see what you would expect from a well used and growing site. He claims he's getting the same. I took some of the pic's of the stats off his site and made a small vid using photoshop and you can make your own mind up.
If I spent my hard earned cash to advertise on that site I would challenge his stats and want true independent information and look very closely at his user information for activity levels before handing over cash.
