My guess is that people who wanted to see the results but didn't want to vote (or couldn't vote, if they weren't a host) clicked 100% because they didn't see the "View Results" link. Maybe if that was a bit more prominent we'd get less obviously incorrect votes like these.

Just my theory...

Between 2-5% of the daily surfers :)

kiwi do you think that your site's design has anything to do with your high numbers?

It depends on what kind of traffic your receive.

You can get 10,000 visitors from some porn site and 0 will sign up, or you can get 100 visitors from hostsearch and 50 will sign up.


I usually use targeted avertising. Don't waist your money on traffic that will not bring you sales.

Well don't you ?
If you sell cheap hosting, from a site that looks like a 12 year old played with you copy of frontpage, i doubt you will get a lot customers.
If on the other hand your site look professional, like some big firm is behind it, you win the trust of your potential clients.

I could be mistaken, and ofcourse design is just one of the many things that should be right.

Between 1 and 5% here. Our site needs a redesign...

well - i know this question was not directed to me but since our redesign it has generated more signups. I think design does play a big part, its a first impression of the company.

Just my thoughts :)
