A few fun stats.

Normally, I get around 100 views/day on my greenhouse video. The day the article hit, it rocketed up to 4000 and has been slowly tapering off.
:cheers:

Very nice article, the comments for the article are a bit goofy but the misunderstandings seem to have been addressed well by subsequent posters.

Love to see pictures of AP people and systems in these kinds of stories - Congrats to all!

I was a little disappointed about the excess publicity they gave to the earth boxes. If too many people get those and are disappointed and decide AP doesn't work that will be sad.

Yeah hopefully there won;t be too many people going the wrong way TCL...

Here are the graphs for the BYAP site, this is total traffic to the main website and the forum.

Bit of a bugger that we had the site down on the Saturday, in fact I'm really surprised that the stats show that much traffic when the site was down most of the day.

I got on Saturday so perhaps it just seemed like most of the day there (could have been only part of the night here.)
That is quite a spike in traffic!

I didn't notice the site was down either....and I am usually checking the site a few times a day. :mrgreen:

The traffic on my video is down quite a bit. Yesterday it was a 420 views....far from the peak at 4000, but more than the average 100 pre-article.

Wow, the comments section over there is an interesting read. So many people with no idea determined to bag AP...
It's all very well to have a firm opinion on something, but it's got to be backup up by a little knowledge about the subject.

Nice one Swanberg, Travis and others for trying to even out the debate a little...
