Farlo Posted January 6, 2013 Posted January 6, 2013 With a new year beginning I want to take a moment to show off our incredible growth in the last few months (these numbers are from the forums and Wiki combined):We've gone from 6,500 unique visitors per month in April to almost 62,000 in December!Our hit count per month has grown from 900,000 in April to over 3,600,000 in December. In the whole year of 2012 we received over 18,800,000 (19 freakin' million!) hits and served over 6,000,000 page views!We received approximately 3,500 visitors per day in December alone.On the Nexus, STEP has received over 2,400,000 total views and 149,000 unique downloads, with 26,000 of those from v2.2.0 and v2.2.0a alone.In the first 6 days of 2013 we've already gotten over 900,000 hits and 16,000 unique visitors with an average of 4200 visitors per day!These figures are astounding to me; I never dreamed this site would grow to be so large. I want to take a moment to thank each and every one of you guys and gals. I hope I speak for the other admins as well when I say that without all of you this awesome community wouldn't exist and STEP wouldn't be the same.Â
Farlo Posted January 7, 2013 Author Posted January 7, 2013 In case you don't look at the Board Statistics at the bottom of the main page, we recently passed 600 registered users and over 18,000 posts total!
z929669 Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 I ditto Farlo's post. Thanks everyone for contributing and/or using the STEP websites! We are all learning a lot about Skyrim modding and more ... STEP will only continue to get better with our AWSOME user base
Neovalen Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 Very nice, congrats to everyone! I had no idea it was so large.
TechAngel85 Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 That's amazing! Congratulations to the whole STEP Team and all the users and visitors!
z929669 Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 Also, I'd like to call out the following individuals as core STEP Members whose contributions have been integral to supporting the success of this site over the past months. This list is limited to currently-active members of the community that have provided major contributions. There are many others who have contributed a lot as well (and we appreciate it!), but I am calling out the "big dogs" to keep it simple:Neovalentechangel85rpsgcKelmychKorentinBesidilotorminaterVondJudgementJaymothergoose729SpiffymanI may be forgetting some, so my apologies to you (PM me to get added to the list and to the STEP Guide credits ).
Gyro Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 I'm glad to see everything going so well. It really speaks to the work and foresight you folks have put into both development and the culture here on the boards :)
stoppingby4now Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 It truly is amazing to see us where we are today. Thanks to everyone that has made this such a great experience, the user community that has been outstanding, and the new friendships. Ya'll rock!
EisDrache Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 Wow this has gone along way since i started the forums on that free service a while ago just as a test. And sorry to all it counts towards i have just been to busy to do anything fun on the computer the last 4 to 5 months as work and school is killing me. Anyways thxs to all who has helped this site grow and prosper!
rootsrat Posted January 7, 2013 Posted January 7, 2013 The thanks should go to the STEP Team. You all do amazing work on this project, chapeau bas, ladies(?) and gents!
TheCompiler Posted January 8, 2013 Posted January 8, 2013 Happy dance! 2.2.1 will bring even more growth!This is freaking assured. I can't believe STEP would have gone so far, it's much more then i could have even conceive the day i've created the page on the Nexus, and the first txt file of the guide in my non-native language. But the big jump came the last year, when you guys asked me to tie this forum to STEP and commit yourselves to it, with dedication, passion, excitement and rigorous analysis. Now STEP is truly a community project, with all the beneficts of being so. Sometimes, since you anticipate my ideas considering some guide/mod changes before i could even refer them to you, i feel a pleasant feeling of uselesness, like a parent whos son is finally grown up and self-sufficient, and that's oddly rewarding :P.

thalastwon Posted January 10, 2013 Posted January 10, 2013 Congrats to all of the step team! So is the New Year's Resolution to quadruple your growth?
