We have the best presence on social networking sites including over 3,200 fans on Facebook and 1,750 followers on Twitter.

We are very bullish on 2010 and are aiming to double both our overall readership and revenue in the year to come." says Del Colliano.

Hi Jerry,

Just curious, about the missing piece of the puzzle. What numbers are you quoting, it never says? Are those numbers unique visitors (if so, daily, monthly?), visits, page views, etc.

Inquiring minds want to know. Actually, I'm curious since we're not listed. I realize we only review projectors and screens, not everything AV. I also realize that the largest review site by far, in the industry, is also not listed - and that would be projector central. Whether your numbers are uniques, visits or page views, I suspect even the lowest of those - unique visitors, that they are in the high 300K or 400K+ range.

Still, none the less, congrats - you built a lot of traffic since we spoke last year. -art
