So I know nuf is dying yadi yadi ya But what I know is how novel updates doing. Not the forum but the site itself. I searched its traffic and stuff on like Alexia but they only show monthly stuff. So I was curious on what the actual stats on nu is. Is it dying or growing?
Dying. I don't park my butt there as much as I used to, and that has to be as sure a testament to NU's declining popularity as any.
For actual numbers, I guess only Tony can answer that? Google trends shows that nu is relatively stable when it comes to popularity though https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=novelupdates and it is still on an upward trajectory https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=novelupdates https://www.similarweb.com/website/novelupdates.com/#overview shows a pretty stable 6 months visit count for nu. So I guess Alive and Well and slightly growing?
I mean ever since Qidian International/Webnovel was the first site to start doing locked chapters the usefulness of NU went way down and as more sites do the same I've been using Bookmarks again more and more. After all, there's no point in using a novel tracker that can't track novels...
