The final numbers are in, the computers are done crunching the numbers, and they’ve all been certified by me I’ve compiled some statistics for the Google Webmaster Group’s Participation in February 2007.

The Summary

Considering there weren’t any major pagerank updates, algorithm pushes, or changes this month it was a good indication that the Google Webmaster Group is gaining popularity on its own merits. Total participation is again up when you compare the daily averages, since February only has 28 days. The Most Improved Googler of the month award has to go to Jonathon Simon as his numbers were 355% of last months. Adam Lasnik comes in a close second with participation numbers up to 145% of the previous month.

The Regulars

Having the Google Webmaster Group be an official group run and operated by Google does add credence to the information available there, however the other 98.4% of the posts come from non-googlers. Many of those are people seeking guidance, support, or information. As the Google resources are finite the functionality of the group requires plenty of non-googler answers as well. As a token of recognition and appreciation I offer the list of February 2007 top posters and links to their sites, if given, please as always patronize their sites.
