It's hard to remember exactly when The WP World launched. It was sometime around Q2 of 2023, so I thought it might be interesting to look at some numbers from last year to now.

User growth was strong out of the gate - as it usually is with things that are new and exciting. After a couple of months, however, things normalized and have been fairly steady. If you're at a meetup or WordCamp, please let people know about the site! And let me know if your event needs stickers! :)

Site traffic has also been pretty steady, except for a huge spike on December 12th. Anyone know what was happening on that day? I'd like to attribute it to the launch of WordCamp ratings, but it's hard to be sure.

Speaking of tracking numbers... the newsletter's newest sponsor is all about tracking growth and conversions! 👇

Rate your favorite hosts

⭐ The new-ish hosting page needs you to rate the hosts! The more ratings that people like you submit, the more valuable the page is for everyone.

If you would take a moment to log in and rate a host or two, I would be very grateful!
