Very Funny Videos blog

After getting a bit of success with the site, I found it necessary to implement a caching system and after a bit of researching, I found a brilliant piece of code by Dave Child, and that script has greatly reduced the punishment I was putting my server through.

The script can be found here, and it is really easy to implement in your PHP code.

I started www.very-funny-videos.com on July 8th 2007, with 3 visitors that day. December 21st 2007 was the record day so far, with 974 visitors in total. Overall in 2007, I have served 268 visitors (on average) per day.

All in all, not bad for about 6 months of running.

On December 19th 2007, the amount of visitors increased dramatically, and I went from about 150 visitors in average per day to just over 500 (see the graphics above).
