HA Facts- Profiling the average user...
According to Quantcast (and I really have no idea how they know all this stuff):
-77% of HA users are male, while 23% are female. Not sure how the Hot Hung Angels are registered, but I'm assuming that they make up most of that female 23%
-According to Quantcast (and this may well be horseshit) 41% of users are between 35 and 49 while 10% are under 17.
-Even though caucasians outnumber "African-Americans" 3 to 1 (according to the stats- see my note below), there are more African Americans here than on an average site.
-41% of users earn more than 100k a year. I am assuming this includes many of the girls and also the guys involved with websites.
- There are more users here from NYC than any other city (in terms of unique visitors). London comes second, LA comes third.
-If the number of cookies is taken as proportional to the number of users, Americans outnumber Brits 8 to 1.
-Around 1/10 of traffic is defined as Work/Education traffic, implying that people do visit HA from work or college PCs
-HA users also like humour, fantasy sports and gambling.
-Less than 1% of users are addicts but they account for 14% of page views. Talk about being obsessed.

I'm really not sure how they know all of the information or why it is useful to them, although perhaps providing a profile of the average user or the most common groups of users helps advertisers. I think it's interesting information. It's also interesting to look at these things and see where you belong.
Finally, if I may digress, I detect a bit of political correctness gone too far here. Caucasians can be European, American or whatever. So why not a term for black people that doesn't include the word American such as...umm...black (for lack of a better word)? If people really do need to be grouped by race (a pointless exercise in my book) for statistical reasons, how would one refer to black people from Britain, Holland, France or even Africa if the only option there is "African American"?

Strange. No comment from Chef Mike?
If I got a dime every time I read an ad with purloined photos I could retire right now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QjS0AbRpAo Andenzi, izimvo zakho ziyaba.

Interesting. It's a no brainer about collecting IP/ domain data for location, and user on-site habits. How they are evaluating wealth,gender,and personal habits is where it gets subjective. I seriously doubt that they have anyone sampling the actual postings to develop a demographic. Tracking cookies can tell a great deal about the user. It's pretty easy to take a look at the recent history on a browser and get a feel for male or female,age group,and interests. Mining this information and developing an alogorithm that sifts through and attempts to create a user profile based on a number of presuppositions would be pretty easy. I'm not sure what they mean by "addicts" whether drug user or net addiction. Either way, someone who keeps accessing the very same page of a thread over a period of time with a much higher hit rate then the average user must have some issue with the content. Someone who seems to be logged on HA for a good part of a day without a vested interest in the website probably has some problems.

Perhaps HA provide some of the info. For the life of me I cannot remember what questions I answered when I first registered here but I'm sure that there were some there that were present for statistical purposes which may help to provide a profile of HA users.
Some other interesting facts from Quantcast:
- 23% of TSSeduction.com users in the US are female
- 24% of TSSeduction users in the US have kids
- The most popular other sites with these users include Askmen but they also include outpersonals.com
- 2% of the users of TGpersonals.com account for 32% of the visits
- Nearly half of the users on Kelly Shore's site earn over $100k
-5% of the users on Hungedevils.com account for 76% of the traffic
and on the mods will like:
- In terms of US users, HA has over 50% more than HungDevils (around 10,000 more users per month) although the latter website is rising in popularity
