More than a technical article, I want to tell you a reflection. I am going to present to you the real effect of a portal falling for a few days.

In the technological age, we have a great ability to adapt to changes, especially if our favorite portal goes down in order to remain informed. Obviously, a disconnection of several days (even if you put a video by David Cervigon), means a considerable loss of visits, as indicated by the Google Analytics graph shown below.

But without a doubt, the most notable thing is not the drop in visits, something obvious, but rather the slow recovery of them, which has fallen by up to a third of the average, with this I only want to say, that before deciding to leave without service, even for a few days, any portal should not think of itself as the addict that we are, but rather as the user who is beginning to get hooked, and when he finds a 404 for several days, he does not even manage to enter it in his favorites section.
