Visitors to interfacebus.com have been flat for years. I add new pages all the time, and of course I up-date and enhance existing pages at an even faster rate [Engineering Page Additions]. What ever I do to the web site, it seems to make no difference.
Of course some of the issues that effect the website are just out of my control. A third of the website is geared toward Computer Buses. Well as time moves on more and more of those PC Buses go obsolete. For example the PCI Express bus replaced both the PCI Bus and the AGP Bus, resulting in 5 pages replacing 8 pages [when pinout tables are counted].
Many new pages added are small in size and it takes time to work them while also doing routine maintenance to the website.
----- RoHS Definition [Added in 2006, no Page Rank, and only viewed 347 times]
Sometimes a page might seem like a good idea, but I never get around to working that particular issue.
----- PON Acronyms [Added in 2007, Page Rank 2, only viewed 263 times]
Maybe I start a page because I generate a new graphic and think it will support another page.
----- Compliant Pin Description [Added in 2008, Page Rank 2, only viewed 230 times]
Adding new pages does not guarantee visitors, as they still have to compete with preexisting pages on the web.
----- Manufacturers of Waveguide Gaskets [Added in 2009, no Page Rank, only viewed 71 times]
New pages also need three months before they receive a page rank from Google, if they ever get one at all. A Page Rank helps the page show up on page one of the search results.
Of course I have no control how my pages show up in the search results. The rise and fall based on an algorithm running on some computer. This page lost 50% of its visits in mid 2008 and stayed there.
----- Wire Insulation Color Codes [Added pre 2006, Page Rank 2]
FYI
The attached graphic is from Google Trends showing the Internet search history for the term AGP. Click the graphic for a larger image. The AGP interface [Accelerated Graphics Port] is the obsolete PC motherboard video bus which was replaced by the PCI Express [PCIe] bus.

Oh, I don't want to give the wrong impression here; I have pages that get tens of thousands of page views a month and the site receives over 2 million visitors a year.
Some new pages just never seem to catch on......
Basically what ever new stuff I add is keeping me even as other pages fall out of favor.

12/29/09 Looks like the wave guide gasket page now has a page rank and was viewed 259 times this year. Also appears that most of the page views started after May
