Even my little Dumas Bearcat stick and tissue rubber to electric conversion got over 6,500 views.
My 1/2A sized Corsair build from a Japanese kit with a .10 electric in it was viewed 20,764 times.
One conclusion- adding the manufacturer's name (BUSA*, DUMAS, TOP FLITE) to a build thread subject line will dramatically increase the views.
It seems that a build thread without a manufacturer's tag that stays within our club gets 300-500 views.
Knowing this info and $1.65 will get you a small coffee at Tim's. ;) ;)

* BUSA= Balsa USA, the kit manufacturer.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how Frank became a search engine optimization consultant. Hat's off Frank! I hope you're on the mend.
