Why not just say it like this... - GoFuckYourself.com

I've noticed that it has become the standard to say that a site is converting "1:350" or "1:1200" etc...

Why not just say "it converts @350"??

You would save yourself a character to type. Which over the course of time, could equate to an extra site, or maybe an extra photoshoot... Who knows.

I mean, how many times have you seen someone say...
It converts 2:700, or 2:2400.

The first digit is usually a 1, so why not just make it implied?

Because thats how the stats look and I'm lazy and just want to copy and paste it into the post : )

Unless you type at the speed of mud, that whole extra character you're saving won't amount to anything time wise.

I only type 1 character per hour, and it's with my big toe. So, it would make a huge difference.

I have a 1:10 or a @10 conversion of straight guys to gay does that count?

Voodoo, I tend to like it. Let's use it from now on, and see how webmaster 'vocabulary' changes.
