Wondering if goal.com has experienced less hits since they dropped the forum?

[wigglesworth]

I haven't been there in two days for example.

[Grande_Milano]

I will not go there anymore

still there are a lot of ppl who post comments on goal.com..but i dont think it's viewership will drop down nyway..i loved gola.com 's chatroom though during cl matches and wc matches !!!

[VanDeezNuts]

theres no doubt that they will lose alot of hits per day. were talking about a large group of people that are constantly and consistently going to goal.com disappearing from the site.

but they will survive

Well I still go back to read about any football related news, but I dont go back all day like I used to cause the forum is now here. If I could find another site that covered ALL the news from all the leagues including transfer rumors I would stop visiting Goal all together. I always hated the insane amount of ads on that site. Most sites are heavy on covering the EPL and that's it

[TalkingReckless]

goal.com is ranking #19 most viewed in Nigeria in the past three months lol.....


and traffic and page views has gone down

this is according to alexa.com

http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/goal.com


and the forums counted for 0.65% of goal.com traffic

despite what you guys think, Adam Scime from Goal used to be in constant contact with me and told me that their finance isn't as great as you'd expect from a site of their magnitude.

[Pedram]

no i don't give a s**t about them them anymore.

[DavidVilla92]

I havent gone back since the Forum closed down, this is my new home with you lovely people.

[TPSPriceless]

Visit it definitely less since I need a different link for the forums. It's still my no. 1 source for gossip and football news though

[Guest]

I can gurantee they lost atleast 1000 hits each day since the forum closed down.

All of them courtesy of sciacca loll

[OLpower]

I have not been on their website since they close the forum.

Frankly, their news were mostly bad and the only one I was clicking on were the one who were linked with the forum.

[che]

i didn't go to the website (excluding article links in forum) since i bookmarked the forum like a year ago xD

I visit there like 1000 times a day, well use too.

By the way I'm being sarcastic. I just visited a few times a day.

According to alexa.com:

"it also appeals more to low-income, childless men and college graduates under the age of 35 who browse from school and home."

[punkfusion1992]

its worth 6.28 million

[Jamin]

Whats goal.com without the forums :s

[Messi]

forums.goal.com was only 0.64% of site traffic.

[The BoyWonder]

i doubt it makes a big difference.. sure there were like 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000 registered users, but out of those max 200 of them were actively posting on the forum

so no i doubt 200 people can make Goal.com hit the Crisis button.

[RobbyV]

I haven't been to the site since Sunday, when the forum announced forclosure.

I unsubscribed tweets from them too...
