oh comon joe .. you're making an assumption
we keep referer logs from last year, .. but without looking at them i can tell you exactly what we were doing. the same thing i'm doing now with banners .. except on a little bigger budget.
we were advertising on distrowatch, fark, tinyminds, and sa all at the same time. we only did it for 2 months straight.
this time i tried linuxiso, but the problem with that is the 150k impressions ran out in 3 days. i already paid for sa again, so we should continue to see more new users when that kicks in. probably next week when they get around to activating our banner.
those were a cool couple months though. investing in advertising for a site that doesn't really pay for itself is just difficult to justify all the time. it's still worth it though.
thanks for everyone's contributions. =)
