I think GFY needs an approval process. Webmasters should have to show their URL, and apply from an emailaddress@<businessdomain>.com and mods approve them.

Speed is important. But the product has to be worth the wait time. It's not.

Also the figures are useless unless you compare them with other boards. I suspect all boards are suffering. So can you compare the same periods on Netpond, JBM, Greenguy and Medium Pimping.
