I didn't say they hadn't. I said more succesful ones reach thousands. There is a lot more of those that didn't reach thousands of downloads then those that have.

Look at a page 100 of freebies for example. They are freebies which have been around for at least 6 months.  You don't see most of pieces on the page reaching and going over a thousand. You have one or two out of 20.  Kay in any page number for freebies, and the situation is very similar. There's maybe one or two on the page that have reached a thousand.

It's certainly not an average occurence, to have freebies reach thousand or so downloads - which was my point all along.

This doesn't mean that there are no freebies out there that have reached thousands, and I never said it doesn't happen. It only happens to what looks to be about 20% of the freebies. 20% is far from the norm. You'd need something a lot closer to 50% before you can call it a normal occurence.

Ok so I missunderstood you. Typical of me sometimes. But if you're going by just the Rendo counts, my point still stands. What may only show in the tens or hundreds here actually do show up in the hundreds and thousands on ShareCG because the freebies are "Linked to" from more than just this one site. My own freebies were advertised and put in freebie sections on multiple sites and also posted as links in forum threads. This goes for freebies hosted on other sites as well.

I merely pointed to that site for a more accurate view of how the freebies were performing. Also, people post links to their freebies in the forums so you're not going to get an accurate count from any one site's freebie listings except for the site that hosts them.
