Was reading a topic here about downloads of 107 and I remembered that I had written a little sql to record the downloads of The Def Tribute.

So here they are:

Not a massive amount, but it's steady and if I advertised the issue more, they'd probably be more downloads! DO I have a banner ad for the issue I wonder...?

And still getting downloaded around 50-100 times a month!

Could be all Bots though.

Or me, downloading like mad, hehe. ;)

Btw, why has this post 3244 views?

All Bots too or something?

Well the thread has been around a good few years, so there would have been many views, but yes Bots probably have a lot to do with it. Google seems to index the site a couple of times a day (last time I checked anyway), along with other search engines, so it all adds up. Old threads do seem to have 1000's of views, which I doubt are all people.

I would guess the newer version of phpBB, discounts hits by search engines.
