Closure of Free Web Hosting
Aug 25, 2010 - 11:23 PM - by Richard
Richard's Avatar During its existance, Escouts has provided free hosting to UK Scouts for around 8 years, (we've been in existance over 9 years). During that time we've saved UK Scouting somewhere in the region of £100,000 - £150,000 and thats a conservative estimate.

[Community] Clarification of Rules / Procedures etc
Jul 28, 2010 - 1:32 AM - by Richard
Richard's Avatar On Monday 26th July 2010 , Escouts: Community alone attracted over 1000 unique visitors (real people), and that is excluding our Search engines.

Over 7000 pages were viewed by REAL people that day. On that day, our members made 233 new posts and created 16 new threads. But one statistic I find remarkable, the average time on the site is almost 8 minutes!

So Escouts: Community is large and a valuable resource for Scouting in the UK (& beyond), we know that, you... [Read More]
