Is there anyway you can view the vbulletin/index page by order of traffic in terms of posts or views, rather than just going by catagory? If not, is there any link that shows what are the most/least popular forums? I know theres the top statistics thing, but something a bit more in depth with more than just the top 5 would…

Reason I ask is it'd be interesting to compare some forums to others. There are some forums here that are way more popular than I originally imagined they would be, and others which I'm surprised doesn't get more traffic than it usual gets.

I think http://boardreader.com/ can tell you what forums are most read/posted on, who has posted the most in the last week, etc. I just can't find the right page at the mo.

Thanks for that red. Don't want to get off-topic but this graph kinda puzzles me:

I know the ranking on the left is the sites overall Internet ranking in terms of hits according to Alexa, but what's with the seriously drop around August? I can understand Christmas time, but the site went from around 7,000th to 12,000th and up to above 6,000th in the space of a few days in late July

Might have been a big server crash, or the weather was sexually good that day, forcing even the palest nocturnals outside that day.

"Top keywords driving traffic to boards.ie from search engines over the past month:"

# boards.ie

WTF is Allison Harvard?!

Also I'd say the Bargain Alerts forum is fairly busy.
