When most people visit the forum

I figure there might be some people out there interested in knowing this ...

Just about right now is when the Warrior forum has the most amount of visitors. Wednesday, early afternoon in the main forum is when the highest number of people are visiting.

How do I know this? I tracked the number of visitors to the first eight boards on this forum since the beginning of the year - every day, every hour. Of course, I didn't do this by hand ...

Attached pdf gives a graphical representation of the number of visitors on a per hour, per day of the week basis.

What time zone is that based on? I'm based in UK, so your post is timed at 21:51 - late evening (not early afternoon) here.

I'm sure there's a good use for this data - just not sure what at the moment.

Well done, though.

So what would you say surprised you about the data?
Do you think spiders had a significant affect on the data?

Colin Bird,

Data is recorded in the Eastern time zone, GMT-4.

dvduval,

The most surprising to me was how many people are hitting the review section.

What surprises me is the similarity in view count of the Main Marketing Forum to the Special Offers Forum, yet the post count is so much different.
