    so why do you want to sell it ?

    Maybe you should advertize it with soomething else than adsense that allows hacks postings

    maybe you could create another thread entiteled '3 million posts and counting', see the stats of your forum:

    The site makes a lot of money. I don't think you should be worrying about that. Ads don't pay as much as some think.

    Congratulations.

    Thought personally I prefer to see more quality than quantity in regard to postings, it's surely no fun to see our own forum gathering dust.

    Just an update and I'm gonna even quote myself.

    And it took me just 6 more months to double to 4 million posts. At this rate I'll be at 10 million posts by this time next year.

    This month I added a CDN to deliver my static content like Javascript and CSS files. I'm being forced to be more and more creative with serving solutions in order to keep up with high demand for my content. So far the CDN has been fantastic and is going to save me a lot of time, resources, and even money.

    yes, it's insane to get those numbers in such short term. i started my forum www.omanbaforum.com in January, 2010 and i'm trailing with 4,041 posts. it's such poor performance on my side. i have tried lots of different ideas and my current step is paying $0.02/post on my forum. hope that turns out to bring good results.

    CDN is a content delivery network. I serve static content from the CDN which has nodes all across the planet allowing for fast delivery from a number of sources.

    It's on multiple servers.
