Update #3 on My MySpace Experiment

The month long ride on FriendStorm is over, The account now has just short of 28 thousand friends. I’m reasonably happy with the result, but I was hoping for over 30k.

I haven’t paid a lot of attention to the other part of the experiment, I have just been too busy with other things.

MySpace is definately a way to bring traffic to your website. You do need a website that suites the demographic of MySpace.

On July 4th, you state you had around 24,000 friends. 20 days later, you only got another 4,000 from FriendStorm?

That would mean 10 days = 24,000, then 20 days 4,000. I’m not calling you a liar. It would make sense because of the lack of tons of new FriendStorm users. Would it have been better to buy a week of FriendStorm?

Yup, as I expected it slowed down. It would seem a week, or perhaps two is the optimal time to buy.

This was something that was an unknown at the time, and was something I was expecting to happen I just didn’t know at what point it would happen.

Now I do, and so do you!
