I have had a few emails recently asking for site stats, so here they are.
Xcat Auctions received 226,332 page views in November 2009.
We had 279,277 page views in December 2009.
We had 411,967 page views in January 2010.
Our short term target is 1 million page views per month, which at our current rate we should hit in May or June.
I would just like to say a big thank you to all of our members and visitors for making this possible.

Hi all.
I am pleased to report that there have been some major changes to Xcat Auctions, which are going to have a big positive impact on the site.
The Xcat Auctions business and the website has been 100% aquired by Xcat Ltd.
For those of you who are not familiar with Xcat Ltd, we are a major supplier, wholesaler and retailer of ex catalogue and surplus stock.
Firstly the website has had a revamp.
In recent months the website has been very badly neglected. We are still getting a lot of traffic to the site, and it still does very well in the search engines, but we are desperately short of listings. That is going to change.
Over the coming weeks and months we are going to be heavily promoting Xcat Auctions to buyers and sellers of stock throughout the UK.
If you are a wholesaler/seller of stock I would encourage you to create as many listings as you can, to take advantage of the extra promotion we will be doing for the site. You can use the bulk listing tool in your admin area to make that easier for you. We have also enabled the site with a Stores facility, which is very similar to an Ebay shop. You can create your store from your admin area. When you have created your store, for any future listings that you create, you will be given an option for your listing to be featured on the website and in your store. You can also customize your store, which will help you build trust with buyers, who can then bookmark your store for future purchases.
If you are a buyer of stock, please visit the site regularly, as there will be a lot more stock available for you to bid on over the coming weeks and months.
Lastly I would like to thank all our members old and new for their continued support, and would like to wish you well in your businesses.
If you have any questions regarding the changes at Xcat Auctions please feel free to contact me.
Kind regards
Rob Taylor
Xcat Ltd
