it's no secret that the wtbts has a cash flow problem.
over the past three years they have closed 20 of their 116 branches.
they have sold off most of their properties in and around ny (including some kingdom halls), drastically reduced the # of printed pages for the watchtower and awake magazines, reduced the printing of books and other materials, increased the number of single page tract campagnes, installed cc machines at their assembly halls, and are now seizing of controll of property assets from local kingdom halls using renovation projects.
@coded the 7.5 million is the average number of publishers. The peak number is 7.96million
also its not 50/50 baptized/unbaptized (otherwise in every kingdom hall of 100 publishers 50 of them would be unbaptized ones wich is not the case)
Its more like 80/20
the following photo is a still frame captured from the latest semi-animated video on jw.org called caleb and sophia visit bethel:.
here is the direct link to this video:.
http://www.jw.org/en/bible-teachings/family/children/become-jehovahs-friend/videos/caleb-sophia-visit-bethel/.
the cross and crown logo's are at these displays at bethel. They are part of the exhibition 'A people for Jehovah's name'
apparently the .org site is getting 1200 bible study requests per day.
well that's what they claim anyway.
dos anyone think this is true?.
@designer stubble your stats are messed up. I visited Bethel Brooklyn and Patterson in July. Between may 2013 and may 2014 there were over 50,000 requests for a bible study. I even made a picture of those JW.ORG stats
During august 2014 the number of people asking for a biblestudy tripled and on some days quadrupled
well if any did not know, mike and kim were shut down on you tube.. they are back on under kim mikey.. .
.
@Jimmypage they had several copyright strikes.
One of their videos last month about the JW.ORG campaign in wich they copied almost complete videos of other Youtubers, was the limit...
when you have several strikes ,.. you are out. That is how Youtube works.
Mike is claiming that the Wathtower is behind the shutdown but believe me thats not the case. WTBTS does not care about Mike and Kim at all.
there are 7,782,346 active publishes in the world.. .
jw.org has received an estimated 7,639,900 visits over the last 30 days.
the number of visits differs from visitors (or unique visitors).
Dis-Member your figures are far from the truth. In the month of august the average number of daily visitors was about 1.8 million unique visitors a day. The average number of pageviews per day was between 10 and 20 million a day.
i first noticed it today... slides up at the bottom.
i wonder why they felt the need to do this?
this is just silly for a religious website..
What do they mean by by saying... ?
you may not:
Use this website for any purposes related to marketing.
while sitting through a dreadful meeting today, while staring into space, i wondered what is next for jw's now that the "greatest preaching campaign" in the history of mankind is over.
what is everyone gonna be obsessed with now?
who knows maybe the annual meeting?
new campaign october the public Watchtower about Gods Kingdom
i find myself trying to access the website, too often, to access the november wt.
this wt is supposed to contain the details of the changes.
so far, nothing.. i think that others are trying to do the same thing just to read about those details.
@nonjw according to sites like alexa.com and statscrop.com visitors spend between 8 and 10 minutes on average on JW.ORG That is pretty high if you compare it with other sites. For example people spend about 5 minutes on CNN.COM , about 6 mins on the BBC, 3 minutes on VATICAN.VA etc etc
