Architect Africa Online Statistics
MONTHLY USAGE FIGURES FOR LAST 5 YEARS:
Between 1995 and 1999 the site registered less than 1,000 individual users per month. During the "dot com era" between 2000-2003 the site registered artificially high numbers of visitors due to intensive marketing efforts. From our point of view the site "settled" after the dot com bubble burst and we started recording true usage figures from 2004 onwards. (This site has not been advertised or promoted in any way since 2003 - all traffic is self generated and content driven. This accounts for the site's steady organic growth and long term user stability.)
