📊 2021 Social Stats - Most read threads etc

Not sure if I’ve done these the last few years but in case anyone cares.

Traffic dropped a bit when we nuked most of the old site and the internet spiders stopped crawling the old site as much, meaning fish puns, pub quiz team names and the like stopped getting silly traffic.

Bulk of the traffic is still new users from search engines - which makes it surprising we don’t get more people signing up to join the forums.

Lots more iPhone wankers (including me) than Androiders dreaming of electric sheep

Keep in mind pageviews don’t mean people… quite likely YOU LOT enjoy talking about beer with each other, rather than onlookers.

Was this rush of traffic likely Jackie Weaver related? Was a link with @ma0sm credited as the sharer

Based on traffic from other sources (excluding google) this was one of the most popular pages of the year

@sean is it possible to break down the most popular threads by forum? I’d be interested in which were the most popular Music threads of the year.
