Our recent post on the Webpop blog about a/b testing a puppy photo (http://www.webpop.com/blog/2013/04/16/can-a-puppy-sell-a-cms) got to #2 as well.

Sat at a pretty constant 250 online visitors for hours. Pretty sure the brief peak must have been close to 700 as well.

Fortunately Webpop is built to handle that kind of traffic, so we never had to worry about the site crumbling under the load...



Yeah, I'd be curious to see traffic data from people who got to various spots on the front page and see what trends emerge.

Though, now I'm remembering that the post was also on /r/webdev and /r/web_design, so that skews things a bit.
