Growth rates of 33% a year are not very common these days, especially with the deepening financial crisis at our doorstep. So it is with some pride that we can report 33% growth in registered members and a similar hike in the number of visits to our web pages last month. That growth is in year-on-year figures.
For the record, Forkliftaction.com's web pages attracted almost 2.3 million visits in January and more than 6.5 million hits. Those included hits from almost 47,000 new visitors. On average, our web visitors spent 11 minutes with us, viewing 49 pages per visit. And for those who like numbers, that translates into 17,569.44 days spent reading about forklifts. If some of those hours are yours, sorry if we kept you away from anything urgent at work. Hopefully, you have something valuable to show for your time with us!
And still for the record, a quick clarification. Last week's story about TVH's acquisition of Saveco Maintenance Service (SMS) reported that SMS is a Yale and OMG dealer. However, TVH tells us it was not a dealer, but a sub-dealer.
