Neopets Layouts, hmmm... not a bad idea. Options

[__ziggy]

Hello All, Thanks for reading this.
I've been a visitor of CreateBlog for almost a year now, {And I will say, exellent myspace layouts :)} and I was thinking, I cannot make proper Myspace, Blog, ect. Layouts..BUT I am wonderfully good at NEOPET layouts..So, would it be possible if I made those kind of layouts? If not, I'll just go back to being a visitor :)

Toodles,

Well, I understand that the facts support you're statement that it's not such a risk with the age thing, but do those stats take into account the age of the active members? I know that the highest percentage is the 13-17 block, but that may be just a result of members playing it when they were younger and abandoning it later on.

And some, uh, :

Time On Site:
An average of 5 hours 24 minutes per month [comScore Media Metrix - July 2006].
Ranked 2nd on the entire Internet.

The average user spends 5 hours and 24 minutes per month. It seems as if members on the site are pretty active. I see your point, and I'm going through the youth studies that Neopets has offered it's members... hopefully they will provided some data as to what demo graphics took the study. At the moment I have come up with this:

In 2002 80% of the people who participated in the survey were 18 years old and under (roughly 12,000).

15,902 US resident NeoPets members (12,512 aged 18 or under) provided data across the four survey instruments used in this report.

This means that about 3000 of them were over 18 years of age. These people are all active users (active enough to take the youth survey). With such a large number of responses the margin of error is very low. This is a fairly accurate representation of what the demographic for the active user over age of 18 would be.

This also corresponds with the percentage of users over 18 being 21% (2006). Yes, I know that this was in 2004, but Neopets has only grown since then. The demographic probably hasn't changed. I can only imagine that the active members who are 13+ would still hold about 60% of the websites active population.


That's about 18,000,000 people... even if you cut that by 75% to get a guesstimate of how many active members their are it's still 4,500,000 people. I think that it would boost traffic to the site like crazy.
