As you can see from the site stats we have just over 1000 posts. We have over 29,000 members. How did that happen? I originally put this site online after I sold Admin Addict in 2010. It got a good start. Unfortunatley wheile getting my yearly checkup the doc found a tumor in my bladder. It turned out to be benigh so I dodged a bullet. Because this happened I decided websites had to go on the backburner while I tened better to my health. Drinking a partying had to go. I lost the original domain right before I cut my online presence down. It sat as a subdomain on Admin Addict and then Admin Zone. After this thread https://anotheradminforum.com/threads/entering-a-saturated-forum-niche.98/ I found that this site was still online and decided to open it. So to answer the question as to how we have 29,000+ members. The site was online and forgotten about for 14 years. Registration has always been on with no email validation so the spammers registered like crazy. When I upgraded it and went into the admin there was almost 50,000 spam posts in the spam queue. So you see Google will find your site even if it is unmaintained.

A few years ago there was a proposal to Icann to create .forum top level domains. It took forever and now they are available. I have a 3 of them: https://computerhelp.forum https://freepchelp.forum https://offtopic.forum I was sceptical at first and bought those 3 because I lost the domains the sites were on when I was ill. They were cheap, $4.95 each so I thought why not. Those domains have been online now for almost 6 months. I will say this Google loves the .forum domains. Those sites get almost double the traffic that old sites on .com domains got. If those visitors would only convert to active users. I can dream. What you think about the .forum doamins and all the other lesser known top level domains? Oh, I also have a .online and .tech site, but, that's for another thread.
