Interesting thought Phill

Release 2.3.6.7 has 6,164 downloads in 8 days to date.

Most people do not list their pages on the mojoPortal page: Sites Running on mojoPortal.  For example, me and my manager have 10 sites and none are listed there.  Also... I download mojoPortal code once for 10 site upgrades so that skews the usage of download statistics/site.

Also, some sites also remove the text "Powered by mojoPortal" footer which would skew Google statistics.

I think WordPress and DotNetNuke and others would all have the same issues.  It's just a difficult and maybe unfair to guess.

As a developer I might hide a piece of code in a C# dll that would do an HTTP Post to the main mojoPortal Website once a month and then the main site database could collect accurate deployment statistics.  But maybe a "Call Home" script like this would not be considered proper to hide in the code.

I'm just a mojo user like you Phill and this is just my 2 cents.

I'm sure the number of sites running mojoPortal is a drop in the bucket compared to the number running Wordpress, it is certainly more established in the market. But I don't think that should be the most important factor in choosing a CMS, if it is then it is self perpetuating and the biggest will always remain the biggest.

The way I see it we are a market underdog with nowhere to go but up from here. We've managed to get where we are today spending zero on marketing and just focusing on continuous improvement of mojoPortal and our add on products.

I think mojoPortal compares favorably to any platform on ease of use and security. I think we do well because we have most of what anyone needs for a personal or business web site in the box, but I certainly don't think mojoPortal scratches every itch or meets every need for every web project and I would never make such a claim. It is good for everyone that there are a lot of choices out there. 

Best,
