Website hits
« on: June 13, 2015, 02:12:42 PM »
I don't know if anyone else noticed but my main website clicked over 600,000 hits yesterday, that is a huge number for such a small website.

Des - ditto on a hearty congrats for a job well done and I hope you keep going. Perhaps a comp is in order to guess the date when you hit one million?
Woof!

I don't know, with that much interest, you can think of
this wonderful site as "small" anymore.  Good on you, Des!!

Cheers,
Ernie :)

Quality, not size, is what matters. This is by far the best quality site on the net in a number of different ways, not least the friendly and informal nature of the site. Long may it continue.

Thanks Des for setting it up and keeping it running so well.

Congratulations, Des!  Ever since you launched your website, it has been an inspiration to countless WWI devotees and has drawn even more into fold.  Thanks for all you've done, mate!
Cheers,
Bud
