Wow, almost exactly 24 hours ago I launched the new forum based version of my site and now just in 24 hours there have been well over 1000 downloads 50 registered users to the forum, 100 posts, 30 or something threads and a whole bunch of unexpected traffic. I am really excited...and it isn't even a porn site!

I have been trying so hard to get a successful site and so far things are looking good

Congrats! I found out yesterday that the Blink 182 site I made a couple years ago was getting 16 000 uniques a month, and it was redirecting to a 404 page caues tripod shut down my site or something. That kinda sucks....for me.

50 registers in 24 hours? Sweet! Where did they all come from?

guitarnerd

July 3rd, 2002, 14:16

Well I told people they can download my new videos at the other forums I go to...normally that would be spamming but I am well known at those places as well so they like me :)

guitarnerd

July 3rd, 2002, 14:18

OH CRAP!!! I just looked at my bandwidth usage I used over 9gb yesterday and I only get 10gb a month I guess I will be paying for a lot more bandwidth this month :nervous:

Maybe I should get an unlimited plan ROTFLMAO

Myacen by the looks of it.

Canuckkev

July 3rd, 2002, 15:32

perth.maycen.com by the looks of it...

And maybe you should get some advertising on there, preferrably to do with guitars, that should help pay for some of the BW. Or go with an unlimited bandwith plan.:p

guitarnerd

July 3rd, 2002, 16:21

Yes I use Myacen...Maybe I can get a reseller package but I don't know where I am gonna get the money

Sounds like there was. *shrugs* Get a grip, don't get so cut about nothing. I piss you off? Oh well, life goes on. :)

Anyway, if it isn't false advertising, sorry about that. If it is - my original statement stands.

My site is not "False advertising" When it says I had to make it to where only members can sign up because it is so popular that is true. I have used well over 15gb of bandwidth now just from when I opened...there are also about 500 posts 100 threads or so and 240 members and rising

No there is no false advertisement the whole point to my site is free guitar videos
