Now over time more and more content was slowly added as a new definition was added or a resistor definition was expanded. Also related content was added, as in 'Trimmer Packages', but was included in a different section of the site which is not represented as being part of the Resistor Dictionary. As a few of the pages grow to large they were subdivided into two pages growing the size in pages of the dictionary. For example back in June of 2009 [blog; Terms used with Resistors], the page "F-M' was separated into two pages increasing the size of the dictionary from 10 to 14 pages.
Now to the point; look how long it takes even to get a small amount of page views. It took 8 months before the page views consistently lifted off the zero floor. Another 6 months after that before the pageviews doubled. So, over a year before the section started to get a decent amount of page views. Still 6 months after that and the pageviews are just stable, or maybe increasing just a tad.
As always my SEO advice is start a page topic as soon as possible. Now if the page has little or no content don't blog about it. Just add it to your site-map or let the search engine find it over the upcoming month.
The bad side of this increase [which is only a few dozen pageviews] is that over the same time frame, other pages are declining in page views. For example the Unified Display Interface has been declining ever sense the page was added three years ago. Now that standard was started but never supported so it's not the fault of the web page. The issue leaves the entire web site with near flat pageviews, as some pages are increasing while other have to see a decrease in pageviews.
