The bar chart illustrates the number of visits by users to a community website in the first and second years of use. Overall, it can be clearly seen that a higher number of visits often occurs in the second year, whereas the opposite was true for the first year.
In terms of the first year, from September to November witnessed a significant increase from nearly 2,500 to 10,000 visits. This number remained unchanged in the following month. However, it dropped roughly 7,000 and hit a low in February and March with only 1,000 visits. Due to a fluctuation of the trend, it experienced a gradual growth in the next 5 months from 5,000 to 15,000 visits. Nevertheless, in August, it climbed to 15,000, and it exceeded 5,000 visits compared to the second year.
Regarding the following year, it saw a bleak increase in September and October. Then, it reached a peak of 17,500 visits, and higher than the first year approximately 7,500. Similarly, the second year also saw an inconsistent trend. Thus, in the next month, the number of visits to the community website decreased to 10,000 visits. The next phase witnessed a rise of over 22,500 visits for 2 months, and it declined again in August.
