I decided to get our traffic certified with Alexa (the most widely used traffic ranking company). The spike in the graph, represents how much they were underestimating our traffic:  We come in close to the Top 1000 sites in the English speaking world:  Out of approaching 1 billion websites, that's not bad going! A huge thank you to: - Gav, who's kept the servers going over the last 7 years. - Our authors, who provide the entertaining stories and poems, which are the reason why most of us are here. - All the moderators, who verify and edit the stories, the chat and forum mods, who keep the place warm and welcoming. - Our members, who drive the community and site forward. A big thanks to those who've bought a premium membership (which pays for close to half our server costs now). - Surfers, who help pay the bills! Thank you all!  Nicola

Congratulations everyone who has made lush what it is.
And thank you nice for letting us all enjoy this lovely site. Without it I personally never would have tried writing and now I don't know what I would do without it. I even have a novel I want to try publishing.

Yes, a great achievement.
I have seen a few sites fall apart over the last few years. A great achievement all round.

This is the first site to do with sex that I ever looked at. I haven't needed any other, and that's why I'm still here.
Happy Birthday, Lush! Well done, Nicola and Gav, and all who have or do work behind the scenes to keep Lush growing.
Ut incepit fidelis, sic permanet.
