Title: thank you, members and lurkers!

April 2011 was another record-breaking month here at conservativecave, with traffic increasing circa 7% from the previous high of March 2011, even though April has one less day than March does.

It's been stupendous, the continued growth of this site.

There's various ways of measuring growth, various indices, and myself not being a professional statistician, can't combine them to come up with a definitive number, only that it's by a magnitude of several.  April 2010 was less than half of what April 2011 had been, and of course we're light-years ahead of April 2009 and April 2008.

It had been speculated that traffic would decline slightly after the mid-term elections, people losing interest until the beginning of the next campaign, say, spring 2012, but there's been no decline at all, it all being up, up, up.

It's awesome.

The "secret" of our success is of course the members, so generous in their "topics started" and their "comments," which lubricates the pistons, keeping the system going faster and faster--and for that, conservativecave thanks all of you.

Keep up the good work!  You're all great!  Thank you!

Conservatives being not given to rioting in the streets like their DUmptard counterparts, nonetheless make their presence known where it counts at the polls.

If heads are popping en masse around Wisconsin now just wait until NO-vember '12.

The knuckle dragging mouth breathing neanderthals form mobs in the streets and give themselves the impression that they are omnipotent. They simply cannot fathom that they are indeed outnumbered.
Just because we prefer not to stoop to their level and confront them on the pavement doesn't mean we're not here. The growth of this site is one indicator that bares that out.

There's various ways to show growth, including one internet traffic tracker (Nexus or Alexis or something like that), but I go by "page views," which numbers are available in the "more stats" link at the bottom of the forum page (I can't get them to line up neatly, when I copy-and-paste, so best to go there).

If anyone knows of any of those internet traffic tracker charts, I'd appreciate it.

Ah, Frank, your are too modest, the site owes so very much to you yourself, for the inimitable flavor and richness of your many written contributions.

Unlike.  some.  other.  sites.

Coach, I'm thinking that our little Cave got notoriety when a link was featured on RedState.  Some of those who came over for a look-see must have liked what they saw.

Congrats. I think your site is greyt not only because of your solid conservative position but because of the quality of your posters. Frank is a valued contributor and the basic friendliness of your board can't be beat. It's sort of like coming home, where you can sit around and chat with friends. I've seen some of the threads in the crying in my beer and other threads where the level of support of the members is heart warming.
