The site has been live for two weeks now. Thank you to everyone for all the positive feedback. We have had a steady stream of traffic for the past two weeks, considerably more than we were expecting when we launched.

Below is the graph from statcounter.com showing the traffic for the two weeks since launch. We have had 5,603 page views and 2,404 unique visitors of which 344 were returning visitors. So on average the site is getting 160 unique visitors per day.

Quite a few people have linked to the site already which is helping generate traffic. Some people have requested that we provide a better sized logo that can be used when linking to the site so we are working on one.

The blog post on SagePay coming to Ireland has also been responsible for quite a bit of traffic. The search engines are now sending traffic to this post also.

The forum has been a big success. We have had 17 members register to date. Thank you to everyone who has signed up and has joined into the various discussions. I found the discussion on providing multiple payments options very interesting and I plan to do a blog post to further expand on some of the issues raised.

The security sub-forum is also responsible for attracting new visitors to the site. I have to say thanks to SecurityNinja for his contribution to the forum. If you have not looked at the security forum then I suggest you take a look. There is a great topic on security testing where SecurityNinja has listed all of the security testing tools that he uses. There is another topic where SecurityNinja has contributed to a list of useful resources for anyone wanting to get started in the area of web application security.
