Your conclusion is wrong as it based on the wrong data. The CFC board website address is chesscanada.info not chess.ca
http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/chesscanada.info#
12,811 Traffic Rank in CA
613,708 Alexa Traffic Rank
http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo/chesstalk.info#
14,376 Traffic Rank in CA
508,507 Alexa Traffic Rank
As for the real comparison - I'm too biased - here and there I'm on the top list of posters (probably meaning that both boards have values in their own ways) ."
Can anyone explain what these figures are and what they say about the CFC and CMA sites? Here is what I posted:

Re: CFC Chess Forums/ChessTalk Comparison
Hi Egis:
I'm not familiar with these terms.
What is the first number - 12, 811 for CFC; 14, 376 for CMA ? Does this mean that CMA is only now 12 % busier than the CFC sites?
What is the second number - 613,708 for CFC; 508,507 for CMA? Does this mean the CFC site is 21% busier than the CMA site? I find that hard to believe !
Are these figures only re Canadian viewers?
Bob
Thanks in advance.
