Sankaku Complex has reached its latest milestone of 10 million page views, not so very long after we surpassed 5 million, and of course the site itself only started in April.
I should take this opportunity to express gratitude to all those who have contributed to this success, whether readers, commenters, contributors, or those kind enough to link here.
Sankaku Complex now gets in the region of 150,000 page views daily (on the main site alone), with more than 20,000 daily unique users, a figure which continues to increase at a gratifyingly rapid pace. The wretchedly inaccurate statistics at Alexa indicate we are in the top 10,000 sites on the Interwebs, for whatever that’s worth.
Within a week or two there will be more than 2,000 articles here, and in a few days there will be over 20,000 comments (currently we receive 300-400 comments daily), which I hope attests to how seriously the community aspects of the site are taken.
Sankaku Channel also continues to enjoy very healthy increases in usage, with some 100,000 page views daily, and approximately 4,000 daily unique users; the selection of images is also rapidly increasing in size, something we will hopefully be able to accelerate dramatically soon.
Should you be able to contribute, tag or improve the information on images there, I know all the existing users will join me in bidding you a warm welcome.
Two new features loom large: a forum and a wiki.
The forum should go live in a few days, and will offer a place to discuss such matters as you deem fit, as well as offering progressive integration with the main site as we go along.
Naturally, there will be image and file handling capabilities available should the Channel not be an appropriate venue for these. A further announcement will follow with regards to this.
The Sankaku Complex Wiki is already live, though is of course still sparse. You can help change this, but I will certainly be working on several key articles as well; if you have something in mind, or have questions about this, you are welcome to get in contact.
The wiki itself is using the same fully featured framework which powers the likes of Wikipedia, so it’s sure to prove adequate for our needs.
Articles which reach comprehensive condition will be announced on the main site, so you are sure to hear more on this front.
A special mention should go to new contributor Quen, who you may have noticed joins me in providing coverage.
I am delighted to have him on board, and I have no doubt you too appreciate the additional breadth and depth of coverage having multiple contributors allows, especially at the very high standards of quality we endeavour to maintain at all times. Hopefully, additional contributors will soon follow…
For those of you who operate your own sites, I should once again take the opportunity to extend an invitation to join our feed exchange program, the details of which are laid out here.
Some of the participating sites have been very successful indeed in promoting themselves using this method, so if you have not already done so, please do give it some consideration.
Once again, thank you all, and should you have any problems with, or questions about the site or similar, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

i've been wondering, with these statistics, what kind of server do you have anyways, Artefact?
There are two, both powerful and expensive. Fortunately, they are still under capacity, though hopefully (?) that will change.
congrats! I check everything that tickles my interest.
i like to check this page once in a while for the news/ecchi/anime related shit. which is why this was created it says!
The moment i found this site i made it to my starter page. It's awesome. Good design, funny news, everyday updates. What can you ask more?
Oh man grats on 10 mil Artefact, you and Quen rock pretty hard ;x
While i have found internet sarcasm to not work generally, you guys seem to have it to a fine art, keep up the good work/fun/play!
Congrats! A well deserved progression! :D
you've made this site your own. super smart guy writing about hell of prurient otaku madness -- cornered the market. go artefact!
CONGRATS TO SANKAKU COMPLEX FOR THIS YET ANOTHER MILESTONE!!!
So many people commenting these days...
/a/ is dead, all hail sank/a/kucomplex!
You guys done a great job indeed with the site. You deserve it! I'm looking forward to see more content in your site.
what can I say? this site updates so frequently it's worth visiting several times a day.
Congratulations on the milestone, Artefact. Hopefully I can reach the same by next year and thank you for helping me in that endeavor.
It's been a pleasure working with you this short time and hopefully it can grow even further.
Congratulations on 10 million dude. More to come in 2009 I presume. :)
wow an extra 5M views in only a month?! man this site's popularity is increasing exponantially. Congrats for the amazing work Artefact.
I have yet to find another site similar to this which gets updates SO dang frequently. This site is now one of my top 5 favorite sites in the whole interwebs!!

Now you're next to Dannychoo, Congratulations!
Congrats dude. I'm sure everyone appreciates your effort to keep this site updated on a daily basis.
Congrats. Think this is the best place so far with news that panders to international otakus.
Hot Damn ! Another milestone set !
congrats, and keep it going.

He's not the type to show much emotion, but I'm sure Artefact is pleased to read everyone's kind comments - I know I am.
yea... omedetou indeed...
keep up the good work!
congrats,,,,
I know this site from my friend just a few months ago,,
then now 10M already.,.,
wow,..,
I found this site by way of the lolipower shoutbox, and I make it a necessity to check here everyday. Thanks alot~
I found the place 5 weeks ago from danny's site.
Now I have 2 plces to check daily, thanks for your efforts.
a forum would be most useful.
congrats. and thanks for all the pron.
hurray sankaku and artefact for making this.
Hehe, good to see this place has been growing. Fighting to get you on to the animeblogger antenna was quite an interesting ride :3
congrats o/
Congratulations on the 10.000.000 hit! I only got to know about Sankaku Complex through a link from Anonymous on desuchan, last month. After that, I tried to keep up with your posts, but you guys post too fast, and I left it for sometime when I would have several hours to spent on the site, so I've spent this past days reading every post since November 19th, because I've been sick on bed. Even though my throat hurt when I laughed, Artefact, Quen and, a lot of the users' comments made me laugh really hard. Of course, there are some posts that aren't meant for fun because of what they are covering, which shows how Artefact and Quen can go from a sarcastic, downright funny or, even a "PANTSU!" approach on one post to something quite more serious on the next one. I hope to be able to keep up with your articles on the following months and that everything works just like both of you want.
if tl;dr: Congratulations and continue your good
I meant "good work."

Wow, congratulations, mate. I didn't even know your blog's less than a year old, which makes the feat even more impressive. I always thought your blog existed for as long as Danny Choo's, lol.
Please forgive me for asking a nosy but curious question, Artefact, feel free to ignore it. ^^
Seeing your impressive "insider" coverage of all "things" Japan, I was wondering: Are you a native Japanese or a resident foreign otaku much like Danny Choo? (No doubt you or someone you know scourge 2ch on a regular basis as well)
Here's looking forward to your blog's 1st anniversary. Keep it up!
Thanks for your kind words. No, I am not Japanese.
Thanks to all who have been gracious to leave messages of congratulations!
Glad to hear that news man, love the site and love all the posts. keep up the great work.
Great job. Always a pleasure reading your site
Congratulations once again.
Keep up the good work.
I am quite surprised by the acceleration of your total number of hits. It was not long ago since you achieved 5 million.
congrats on your exponential growth. Keep up the good work!
Congrats. This is a very nice site to visit often
Hooray!
Wow congrats!! Woo!
Im pretty sure the fact that some guys have been linking this on /a/ has a lot to do with it, I personally found this thanks to it.
Posting in a famous blog.
