Also, regarding the traffic of countries, I see that Russia is in first place, and considering that the BTT forum is banned in that country, does that mean that Altcoinstalks is not?
Interesting data, and as far as I can see we are progressing in everything, except that our rank experiences very dramatic changes from time to time. From the beginning of the year until today, with all the changes, the rank is approximately the same - so since I'm not an expert, I have to ask what that rank primarily depends on and how to improve it?First factor is visits, and you can see in the comparison table as well that rank is directly related to the visits this forum is getting. Rank increases with more traffic and decreases with less traffic. Besides visits, the speed, backlinks, and SEO factors like the quality of content and quantity of content both impact the rank. Rank is a term to differentiate if we are doing good or not in comparison to other sites of the same domain or the same content.
Also, regarding the traffic of countries, I see that Russia is in first place, and considering that the BTT forum is banned in that country, does that mean that Altcoinstalks is not?Altcoinstalks is not banned in Russia yet, but there is a huge number of banned web sited of hundreds of thousands positions, so it can happen any time. But as for now, Russians are free to visit Altcoinstalks directly.
~snip~
So, there are sites of the same niche (crypto). In SEO, experts keep an eye on their competitors and try to understand their content tree, and try to overtake them by outsmarting them so if we want to focus on rank then first find our competitors then try to compete with them in various factors that are the second step, first is finding them. Age of the domain also matters in terms of rank.
I expected a significant increase due to the joining of two signature campaigns, especially in the number of topics and number of posts, but in general the forum is growing and interest in the forum is increasing.Yeah, this is a significant change we can see: after the surge in traffic in May, we see this metric stabilize, confirming that AltcoinsTalks traffic has actually increased. At the same time, Search has increased, indicating that forum content has appeared more in searches. This is an important step for AltcoinsTalks to reach potential investors and, of course, potential users in future.
The best indicator is Search: 16.85% (+8.84%), which indicates that archiving the forum in search engines has become much better than before.
These are strange decisions without going into any off topic about it, but if you ban BTT as a forum, then I guess it would be logical to ban any forum that has anything to do with cryptocurrencies. However, maybe BTT was banned because there is an active discussion about politics and war there, and as far as I've noticed, there are no such discussions here at all.
Good work MrSpasybo +1 for you but you deserve more. I liked the stats as they are growing, last time I shared that with time the number of posters will increase, and as of now some campaigns are increasing their slots, or some campaigns that were closed have been opened now and this will increase the visits and bounce rate as well.Thank you for your suggestion, I think I will add Bounce rate to the statistics table for more reference data. I have never noticed how important this data is, so I missed it. Honestly, we have a lot of interesting data such as the number of pages or the average time of a visit, but it is difficult to create a full and clear profile for AltcoinsTalks.
BTW I just noticed you did not mention the Bounce rate anywhere I think it would be a great thing to add because it will tell us if the people visiting this site are engaging the site or just visiting the site and then leaving it instantly. For example currently, according to SimilarWeb the BR for this forum is %60 so to understand the relation, a higher bounce rate will indicate lesser engagement, which means people are not engaging with the site and not spending time on different pages (the point is this forum has lots of pages so average will be calculated, and most people spend time on some pages only which reflects as they are not engaging but still it's not a big deal). Lower BR means people are spending more time on this forum.
So, a higher bounce rate totally gives the vibe that it's not good and we need more engagements for the forum, but it also means that people came, they found what they were looking for, and left, but I don't think this forum is one of those sites. It's a forum where people talk.
So what do you think about adding another column for Bounce rate from now on?
I know that SEO is important, but I don't know if someone from the administration deals with it? Maybe the forum could hire a professional to try to make some changes for the better - of course it's not cheap, but it would probably be worth it in the long run.I don't think the admin is going to hire any professional maybe they will run some kind of campaign where they will ask members to contribute in the form of writing SEO optimized articles for the forum or providing other services. Just like PX-Z and bitmover made a notification bot and other stuff, other members are contributing in their own way.

BR is good data to be considered and yeah it is really difficult for a member to create a clear profile of the forum only the admin can do it along with its staff.
The positive thing we can see is that traffic is increasing, which is perhaps the most important and obvious data. I hope that this number will continue to be maintained in the coming months, until the crypto market enters a bullrun and brings hundreds of thousands of new visitors to the forum!

I think this is good for the forum and Mixers projects, this win-win relationship helps us all develop together, and users with needs can also access the most suitable crypto mixing services.
Traffic will increase more if more and more signature campaigns will come. I have seen that some members are not that active but when they get enrolled in some campaign they start to remain active as well (no offense to anyone). More and more members will also join from BTT. Traffic will be increasing and that's for sure. The bull run also plays an important role, I never idealized this before but you seem to have a good idea about it, so do you think in a bear market we will have fewer visitors?
@bitmover, how easy (or difficult) is it to fix that defect and do you think it would significantly affect the visibility of the forum? The forum will have a hard time progressing if some basic things are not arranged as they should be.

I know some things about SEO but I am not a specialist. There are some small things that can be done that I have noticed, like data schema that i mentioned above.Wow, I hope the admin can refer to these suggestions so that we can have more effective SEO, help AltcoinsTalks forum reach more users in the future, especially during this bullrun. I think this is an opportunity for the market to mature and for AltcoinsTalks to establish its position in the crypto community.
There are probably other stuff to do , seo is like working on many small things that together makes a difference. I i think Examplens and NotATether knows about seo too
but what would attract even more users to teleport from BTT would be an increase in payrates. Although there are sig campaigns on BTT that pay $50 per week, the best ones go up to $120 per week, which is still more than twice as much as here.I have also said this in the time past, people will come here when the pay rate has increased and some money of the members in BTT using this low pay rate to 'monk' participants here but that is not without we here for. $30 is small compared to BTT pay rate though as you said, there is a bounty campaign that pays $10 weekly over there but the number of posts a well is also small as 10 compare to here $30 to $45 day with 30 posts. And if the forum needs more participants then the pay rate should be increased and also what bitmover said is good for the SEO. That can also make people to see it from many search engines.

We need more users generating good contentContent is certainly number one when we talk about SEO positioning.
We need users asking basic questions about crypto, so we can answer. Most of us knows who to give proper technical support for crypto currencies. We all do that in btt, and we can do it here for ethereum/ bnb / Solana whatever coin you have. Ofc a good seo technique will help , but good content is key
looking at it from an SEO point of view, where it is more likely that someone will search for the term "Understanding Ethereum Gas" or "Do you still believe in old coins"
I have also said this in the time past, people will come here when the pay rate has increased and some money of the members in BTT using this low pay rate to 'monk' participants here but that is not without we here for.
~snip~
I was thinking about that.
Personally, I think that 2 things can increase payrates :
Traffic and content
Traffic will certainly give more exposure to brands, so it certainly will.increase rates.
~snip~
If we take into account the time before the ban on promoting mixers on BTT, most of them paid from $150 to $250 per week for Legendary / Hero members - and my personal opinion is that with at least $100 per week here, they would take a big step forward for the forum and their business.[/quote]
I think k "do you believe old coins" is a content which is easier to get to top in Google searches.Honestly, I hope that we will have more new topics to keep up with the development of the crypto market so that all members can discuss. It's a shame that I don't have enough time to write about crypto market news anymore, I'm also trying to persuade some AltcoinsTalks members but everyone is busy with their investment plans. The bullrun makes investors busy, and sometimes they don't want to try to create new cool topics on crypto forums anymore ^^
It is more unique. There are literally hundreds (maybe thousands) of "understand gas fees " in the web. To top ranked results will have 3000+ words, good SEO techniques, high authority domain. There are so many, only the besys will reach top 5 results, and only 1 or 2 get clicks
I think more technical support specific questions may also be good content to rank up.
For example "I lost usdt in Solana chain using phantom". This place should be the better forum for such questions
Yeah, things are harder now for forum posters. We need to post in two forums to get 150-200 per week (about 100-150 in BTT and 40-50 here). But this is still amazing imo.
I see this altcoinstalk forum as an investment for mid-long term. Maybe this place will grow and reward us even higher rates. Maybe not.
Maybe we need some back-links from other sources, to increase the forum authority in SEO searches.

The little I know about SEO is that whoever does it (and does it badly) can cause damage to the website they are trying to improve - and accordingly the question arises, can someone deliberately undermine the rank of a site by doing bad SEO?
The little I know about SEO is that whoever does it (and does it badly) can cause damage to the website they are trying to improve - and accordingly the question arises, can someone deliberately undermine the rank of a site by doing bad SEO?I do not think this is common. Sometimes some competitors may create very bad ratings to negatively impact the reputation of their competitors. This has become common when BTC Mixers have received many inaccurate negative reviews on sites.

Lest anyone think that I somehow want higher payrates for myself, because I don't need that money at the moment, and if I do spend something, it goes to charity. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5493147.0)
I had also looked at this issue and it appeared as if;
1. The mixers promoting here wants higher traffic before they start paying good money. But if there's no gain at all or traffic from here, they would have stopped promoting entirely. For them to still remain here, means that they are benefitting
2. The managers are one ones allocating this pay rates. You can see that Icopress is paying higher than all. Maybe if another manager takes the pay to $70, the competition will set in.
The fight for the title of the most paid campaign often ends badly. This should not be a reason to dry campaign balance without evident results.2. The managers are one ones allocating this pay rates. You can see that Icopress is paying higher than all. Maybe if another manager takes the pay to $70, the competition will set in.
There has always been a competition between managers about who will get the best members, but obviously no one else can beat the current highest payrates because what is being offered now is perhaps the upper limit that mixers can pay considering what they get in return.
This will only change if traffic on altcointalk increases. To do this, you need to get rid of many things (remove many unnecessary sections, improve the quality of content, create a reputation system and get rid of various types of custom ratings and restrictions... get rid of IP tracking, etc.). As far as I know, the admin is currently working on many of the things I mentioned.AltcoinsTalks still has a long way to go to catch up with BitcoinTalk, but at least we are still here and growing every day. I think the admin and AltcoinsTalks community are gradually making the necessary changes to help AltcoinsTalk become more popular, have more users, reach more crypto investors, and have more traffic!
On the other hand, not a single online casino that advertises on BTT today advertises on this forum, so the question arises why they do not see any benefit for their business here?The reason could be this simple;
Also, a campaign that pays two participants $70, and the other 20 participants only $30, cannot be considered most paid.Yes. I am happy you saw from this angle as well. Most paid should be what the highest rank in that campaign earns and not preferential earnings.

I don't think AltcoinsTalks can ever catch up Bitcointalk forum with activity, but it can improve and come closer for sure.
Admin is not so much active with posting in forum, so I hope he is working on new updates behind the scenes.
Signature campaigns have created healthy competition on AltcoinsTalks and boosted the positivity of many members.

What if authorities find there way to this forum as well? I won't be surprised but happy to see the adoption of rules and regulations here as well. I mean if something bad is happening it needs to be stopped right? Besides no doubt the shifting of mixer campaigns to this site has increased the traffic greatly and recently some old comparing (which was paused) are now active again and you will see the results for July will be better than now.
We are in a bullrun, and AltcoinsTalks indirectly receives a positive impact when there are more members, more topics, more traffic and searches. The opposite happens when the market goes into bearsleep and is dominated by boredom, despair and anger. I witnessed this in 2018 and 2022, I hope that the same will not happen in 2026 when the crypto market and our forum have truly matured.But I think in boredom and anger some smart people might want to learn what they can do now to make a profit in the future. I mean, when market dump or in bearish mode, most of the people don't just hate the market but they find ways to determine which coins will be best for upcoming bull run.
It's almost certain that the activity here cannot compete with that of BTT but there'll be a significant improvement in the activities here in the future if things are done right.In the past year or so, we have seen many positive changes to the layout, policies, and regulations of AltcoinsTalks, and we have also recognized the positive impact they have had on member behavior and traffic. Admin has made a real effort to implement community suggestions, and the community is also becoming more active in creating valuable content for AltcoinsTalks.
It's not so long that Icopress wrote that above, but we can attest that the admin had done good job for months now. He rearranged the boards, removed many unnecessary ones and merged some. I need to applaud him while believing him to do more, especially in the area of privacy.

I use their plugin for Chrome and it shows me a significant deviation from the data MrSpasybo presented. I know that SW is not the most accurate, it's more like a quick follow-up of basic statistics, but it's strange to me that it gives such different results

The decision to ban mixers on BTT was the decision of one admin, and he says that there was no pressure from anyone outside for such a move. Besides, do you think that ATT is invisible and unknown to those who fight battles against mixers?So you are saying admin alone can't take the decision to ban the promotion of these mixers on ATT (I prefer to say ALTT). I don't have good knowledge of law but I do have the idea that if a product can be used for good and bad usage and someone is promoting it then there should be no problem. Like you took the example of search consoles which can show you good and bad stuff so the promoters are not responsible but the actor is.
In addition, as far as I know, according to US law, whoever promotes something is not responsible for the fact that someone may abuse that service or product. Just look at what is happening on social networks or what is displayed as a sponsored search result through Google - for them, mixers are small babies if we take into account the number of scams and fake mixers that just rob people of money.
As far as I understand the situation, mixers can be banned from promoting on ATT only if the admin and president decide so, and the only possible reason would be if the authorities threaten to take down the forum and seize the domain.
How reliable are these data from Similarweb?I'm also not sure about the accuracy of the results, I only used SimilarWeb on the official website and got the data in the report. It is possible that the plugin uses a different dataset or filters and gives different results. Honestly, I don't have enough knowledge to make a conclusion or guess for this difference.

The decision to ban mixers on BTT was the decision of one admin, and he says that there was no pressure from anyone outside for such a move.Looking at the things that have happened in the past few months, theymos' decision to ban mixer promotion makes sense. After the closing of the Samurai wallet, suing Sushiswap, and other similar cases who knows how the promotion of the mixers on Btt would be interpreted, especially considering that theymos is a US citizen.

And as far as I remember, Alexa was quite imprecise with its data report.
I think all data comes with errors, we can only refer to one data source in the long term to determine the trend of traffic changes.
So you are saying admin alone can't take the decision to ban the promotion of these mixers on ATT (I prefer to say ALTT).

Among other things, I currently maintain one domain, and I have quite different results of traffic on three different platforms. Google Analytics, Cloudflare and Similarweb, and the deviations are not small, but 10x depending on the service.

"BTT is a mother forum of cryptocurrency and anything that happens to BTT will definitely affect the cryptocurrency industry. But if the government shutdown ALTT, hundreds of similar forums will spring up and the ecosystem won't be affected.There are already other forums where mixers are present. On some, even mixers have to deposit funds in escrow to be able to announce themselves there.
There are already other forums where mixers are present. On some, even mixers have to deposit funds in escrow to be able to announce themselves there.But as far as I know this is only existing on DarkNet that can be accessed only with Tor browser, and those forums exist for a long time there.
Coming to the question of whether the authorities fighting mixers are not aware of ALTT forum. Few months ago when there was massive teleporting accounts from BTT, I asked a question and the admin of this place did give me a resounding reply. I have done a rough search of that response and couldn't find it.The change in attitude towards BTC Mixers from Bitcointalk has created an opportunity for AltcoinsTalks to attract more Signature campaigns and users from Bitcointalk. I believe this is a testament to the freedom and decentralization of the crypto market, where users are free to choose the platforms they love and trust.

I don't think that if AltcoinsTalks were to run into trouble or disappear, many other crypto forums would step up and replace it. We have many crypto forums, but they don't really thrive or have active communities. AltcoinsTalks is the best successful experiment I've seen in this market to coexist alongside Bitcointalk.Did you at anytime imagine that mixers will dominate here and not be in BTT. So, what's the guarantee that if ALTT refuses to promote mixer tomorrow, Icopress and R7 will not discover another forum for us and they'll eventually become active forums?
I don't understand how this works. Like they deposit funds in an escrow which will serve as a reserve incase they scam anyone in the forum, such a fund can serve as compensation fund?Something close to that. I don't use some of those forums, but that's how I understood it. Moreover, unlike this forum and Btt, if a service is recognized as a scam, it is completely excluded from the forum and it is not possible to present itself in any way.
Ok, that's nice. So there'll be no room for projects like 1xbit. Trust you still remember the drama in BTT :DI don't understand how this works.

Did you at anytime imagine that mixers will dominate here and not be in BTT. So, what's the guarantee that if ALTT refuses to promote mixer tomorrow, Icopress and R7 will not discover another forum for us and they'll eventually become active forums?Firstly, I don't believe that AltcoinsTalks will ban BTC Mixers. The Admin and Mods are aware of the existence of Mixers and do not oppose them. In fact, Mixers banners are displayed everywhere on AltcoinsTalks. This is a win-win collaboration and there is no reason for us to worry about any bans. The Admin and President also do not have the sole authority to make decisions with such a significant impact, at least not at this time!

Can you name other cryptocurrency forums that are active?You can refer to some crypto forums on the market. Some forums have a similar interface to BitcoinTalk and AltcoinsTalks, some use a different interface and each forum has its own rules for members [1-2].
I want to compare them all with altcoinstalks and bitcointalk, and see if they are doing something better than everyone else.
Crypto gambling forum is something I would be mostly interested to find.
What an interesting question!What an interesting fact that I did not know, if that's the case then I think it is best for himself most compared to the forum's safety because he is most vulnerable if things become severe. Although it's hard to believe that how do you really know he lives in the USA? Well, its not matter to me where he lives and thanks for mentioning that there was no warning from gov but I already knew that because I read the whole thread that Theymos opened for the ban on Mixers and in that thread, he really said that he did not warn or threatened by Government. Well, who knows the real truth?
Well, theymos clarified that there was no warning from the government or anything of that kind. But we believe he took the decision for the benefit of BTT and bitcoin as a whole. Theymos is a resident in US, I believe he has allies who must have fed him confidential information.
Coming to the question of whether the authorities fighting mixers are not aware of ALTT forum. Few months ago when there was massive teleporting accounts from BTT, I asked a question and the admin of this place did give me a resounding reply. I have done a rough search of that response and couldn't find it.That's a good answer but I never realized till this answer that BTT is that important for the whole crypto world. It doesn't even have that many visitors like only in 1 or 2 million maybe. My tracker is telling me it has 830K visitors this month on BTT. Which are not that much but still I believe many good projects are first market their campaigns on BTT and maybe that's why he said that.
He said;
"BTT is a mother forum of cryptocurrency and anything that happens to BTT will definitely affect the cryptocurrency industry. But if the government shutdown ALTT, hundreds of similar forums will spring up and the ecosystem won't be affected.
I have used many crypto forums such as no other CF, BitcoinGarden, no other CT but did not have a comfortable experience like on AltcoinsTalks: the community there is not really developed and there are not many opportunities to discuss or share views on the crypto market in English and local languages.I remember participating in one of these forum where they offered to pay user in ETH after reaching a certain amount of post, which turn into spam fest quickly. On the other hand, I've seen so many forum dies because they can't attract enough users simply because they're too identical with existing popular forum like BTT which allows them to earn while posting. I guess activity and posting incentive are quite important for forum longevity. Making everything too centralized can also turn off some members from participating in forum discussion and so on.

I think bounties are necessary for forums, and bounty managers will be the ones to ensure that only deserving members receive rewards. Up until now, no automatic mechanism can do this job in place of humans. AI is a possibility, but I doubt its effectiveness.
Not only is it known where he lives, but his full name and age are also known, along with a few other things. I don't know how it happened that this information appeared publicly, but anyone can find it through search engines if they are really interested.OMG I never searched before because I thought he couldn't be traced because if authorities know where he is then they can get information out of him about Satoshi or they might have already did because a person shared his personal information like city, phone number, email, etc., etc. but the information has been removed from the site by admin.
