The Autocade stats are showing, since the counter reset a few years ago, 18,359,220 page views. Add that to the 27,647,011 we had previously, and we’ve passed the 46 million mark, at 46,006,231. We’ve successfully blocked many new bots and “AI” scrapers, checking in on our visitors daily. It’s sad that this has become a… Read More »Autocade reaches 46 million page views
The next Autocade Year of Cars will have a top 10 table. We looked at sourcing the numbers from Focus2move, as we originally did for the full-year 2024 table, but their summary (at the time of writing; this page appears to change) did not hold water once we began investigating the rankings themselves based on… Read More »This year’s global top 10, to September 2025
Proof once again that the milestones aren’t always planned, we reached 5,500 with the unlikely Fulwin T6, the plug-in hybrid version of the Chery Tansuo 06. As far as the Fulwin line-up goes, it’s one of the more interesting shapes, being more avant-garde than the T8, which really is a Chery Tiggo 8 with a plug-in… Read More »Autocade reaches 5,500 models
Recently completed on the main site: the entire history of Leapmotor (not hard considering the firm is only a decade old) and the Dongfeng Yipai (eπ) sub-brand (only two models, the 007 and 008). The BMW X3 and iX3 nameplate and model pages are also complete. We are still seeing some odd traffic patterns, even… Read More »Leapmotor, Dongfeng Yipai up
We’ve reached 5,400 model entries on Autocade, and the car that got us there is particularly special, launched just this week. The Ferrari 849 Testarossa wasn’t what we thought we’d be adding, but for a friend of mine placing an order and showing me what he was planning to get. (He already owns a 512… Read More »Ferrari 849 Testarossa takes Autocade to 5,400
We got there ahead of time: the main Autocade site has clocked up 44 million page views since we started in 2008. The counter is reading 16,356,122, which added to the 27,647,011 of the earlier installation, totals 44,003,133. This is with all known “AI” bots blocked, including ones that weren’t identified by one of the… Read More »Autocade now on 44 million page views
Exactly two months since we cracked 42 million page views, we’re now on 43 million on the main site (15,364,474 plus 27,647,011 on the previous installation totals 43,011,485). We’re also serving 337,430 unique visitors per month there at the time of writing, though I noted in private correspondence we had cracked 300,000 during May. This… Read More »Autocade reaches 43 million page views
Surprisingly, we have cracked 42 million page views in two months, and that’s with “AI” bot blocks. We’re also blocking bot activity from Semrush (there is a lot of attempted entry), and letting through Ahrefs in a controlled way (a page a day, I believe). I’ve detailed the maths elsewhere: the original site netted at… Read More »Autocade reaches 42 million page views
We have reached 5,300 models on Autocade, and the model that got us there was a pleasant surprise: the Volkswagen Karmann Ghia Typ 34. No idea why we hadn’t done the Karmann Ghias, especially the Brazilian TC, which would be the sort of quirky car that I like seeing in Autocade. (The Brazilian SP2 was… Read More »Autocade reaches 5,300 models with something interesting
Thanks to the positive press coverage in Octane (see their March 2025 number here), for which we are extremely grateful, the main Autocade site has reached its latest million-page milestone in two months, two days. Now over 41 million page views have been served, and that’s after blocking the “AI” bots that inflated our count… Read More »Autocade reaches 41 million page views
