Just wanted to revive this thread. I’m still for my original guess of November 30, 2009 @ 8:00 PM. :) |

What is the average number of posts per day at the moment? |
|
|
It is all depending Zoe. During our last countdown to 50,000 posts I conducted a spreadsheet analysis of the number of postings and at what times they were posted. Now before everyone screams Get a Life!!! please know that I was conducting this research as part of an attempt to understand more about how the forums can be used by tutors to help them market their services online. What I found is that there are, on average, approximately 125 – 130 postings everyday. However, the rate of postings fall significantly on Friday afternoons through Sunday evening (the weekend) and are considerably higher Tuesdays through Thursday afternoon. This is why I recommend new tutors here to plan their class schedules accordingly. One other thing to consider as well. The closer we get to 60,000 postings the more postings per hour will happen. We were 12 hours ahead of schedule the last contest, and in the final several days the average per day was more than double the average I stated earlier. |

Ron, Great analysis and very useful, thanks! |

Wow! I’m not even going to try and look intelligent by guessing then. I’m just going to keep watching and see who wins….this is interesting. I’ll get my calculator out for the next contest! |
