This week I've of course had a new baby. No we still do not have a name. But I've also posted around 100 new pictures, 5 new galleries, and a few new blog posts. But whats more amazing is the number of new visitors to the site this week.

There has been about 150 unique visitors to the site in just 5 days. I've serverd out over 21000 images and pages as well in this 5 day span. At times it seems there were multiple visitor's to the site at the same time, as many at 5 perhaps more. And none of this includes my personal traffic from my laptop because the number would be way higher then. I also excluded AOL traffic because I'm not able to discern this traffic as unique.

In all on the site I've served out over 444000 images, pages, and other content in just over a year. The site currently contains 1778 images and there 4 different thumbnails, sound clips and a few other file types in 66 collections (galleries) and 78 articles (blog posts). This totals out to be right about 2.7gb with of data. With about 100mb of this being just the visit log.

So why bring this up. Because this application was designed and coded by myself. I've always worried that the site would slow down as it grew but even with this this much content it's still running just as fast as it did when I only had 5 images in it and it was being used for a whole different service.

So if any one reading this is looking for a free, fast, and secure blog/image gallery app based on ASP.NET/SQL 2005/2008 let me know and I'll be glad to share the code and an empty database.

Thanks for all the visits everyone. I'm glad I was finally able to test the sites limits. I'm even more glad to see that I've still not hit it's limits!!
