Holy fucking shit! The assholes stole the idea from 4chan and are banking on it! :BangBang:

You know it.

My bad, I think this is targetted abit towards me, I had a few sources who told me wp blogs over 30k daily could fuck up.

I withdraw that statement :)

"stole the idea" ? moron :2 cents:

Thanks for the reassurance, not that I'll ever come close to those traffic numbers though.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

blogs are non-profit and sucks with converting. ratio could be 1:5000. that's waste of time and money. it's a fact!

:1orglaugh

if you look at his sites, you will understand why all his sites are "non-profit"

I agree with you fris.

you sure do suck then, most of my conversions are 1:100-1:200

a nice list of well known sites that use wp

Big fail dude, big big fail. If you think that seriously has to do anything with converting, you better get back to your study.

Your right fris, i have had a succesfull website running on WP doing 120-200k a day without a problem. I saw someone stating wp sucks for huge traffic in another thread, wanted to reply but i somehow knew you would jump this case.

I read that the guys who have icanhascheeseburger are raking in millions...

from Wikipedia: According to TIME Magazine, the website was acquired by a group of investors in September 2007 for US $2 million. [6][7]

ICHC was created on January 11, 2007, when Nakagawa posted an image from Something Awful of a smiling grey cat, known as Happycat, with a caption of the cat asking, "I can has cheezburger?" in a style popularized by 4chan. It is from this image that the site derives its name. After posting similar images, Nakagawa then converted the site to a blog.[4]

Not bad... Hijack the Lolcats from 4chan (which doesn't make money) and do your own thing with it.. build massive traffic, and sell the bitch in 8 months. Wow. For a cool $2m

Tha cats pics and that stupid cat talk has started on 4chan and has been going on there ever since

The icanhascheezburger stole all the pics and started a blog.


Fuck you.

Yeah, and Google stole JumpStation's idea for a searchengine. And Al Gore inventet the internet..... you push the boundaries of Ignorance, but not in your favor

Somewhere above several million pageviews a day served, caching became important. Other than that, Wordpress performance isn't really a problem.

Yeah sure.... Can you prove it?

mainstream blogs? we are porn webmasters so what's your point?

the point is wordpress blogs can handle high traffic? :upsidedow

Ya i could, but i dont feel like prooving something to someone i dont know, or care to know, or give a shit about.
