🔹 2.2M pageviews
🔹 350K visitors

Our record: On the day of the TBC prepatch, we received 12.5K visits on the website.
They were mostly looking for the Shadowstep PVP talent Build, which is the most viewed guide on the website to date with over 270K views so far. (written by ‪@SbkzorTV‬ )

In one year, 46 guides were released and half of them were dedicated to PVP. The vast majority was written by Sbkzor, but some more specific guides were open to collaboration to get even more accuracy when it was about rogue arena comps for example.
These guides were all written by R1 players for free. They were sharing their knowledge, based on our private server experience because, at some point, we were all BC lovers, and super hyped by the release of BC Classic.
In our magazine, Rogue Life, we also released 33 news with great exclusive interviews from both legendary players and active R1 or top parsers.

🔶 Silent Shadows Community

🔹 10K players discord
  / discord  
On our discord server, you can easily find R1 players from both NA and EU, with legendary players, sharing their knowledge with newcomers to BC Classic or Rogue Class.
The community is so active, that it is capable of producing its own guides inside the discord and sharing with other players. Be it for gold farming or arena comps.
Thanks to our active team of mods and experts, the place is super healthy.

🔹 120K views on YouTube
One of the goals of our community is also to incitate players to create videos. This is why we've got a lot of videos uploaded on the channel coming from different players: Reklez, Petraxs, Sbkzor, Mir, Nahj, BallonG, Yessa, Booch, and much more.
The whole content is kindly offered by the players themselves who watched the videos before release, and is, of course, unmonetized.
We also partnered with a 3D artist to produce unique videos to go further and create a strong identity and completely paid from our generous donators.

The last year was super crazy.
Big thanks to our community for making this happen
