Sites on the toplist are NOT ranked by voting either with Hits In or Hits Out
but are now grouped using a set number for "Hits In" as follows -

• 10 - Forums with high activity, with multiple members posting daily
• 9  - Forums showing some daily activity
  
• 8  - Forums with some members posting occasionally
• 7  - Forums requiring registering to view activity
  
• 6  - Forums with little or no current activity
• 5  - Uncatagorised forums
• 2  - Some sites with wordlists useful for members when playing forum games
• 1  - Some resouece sites - image hosts, smiley sites etc.
• 0  - Some free forum hosting sites

Sites will appear in a random order within their grouping.

 Ultimate topsites has become so unreliable that I have now gone back to GoTop100 for hosting -


 So the main url for Favourite Forums Toplist  is now :- http://favourite.gotop100.com


-- and will not be changed again unless absolutely neccessary.

Address for the reserve site  - http://favourite.gotop100.com/


 used for storing resource sites and in case there's ever a problem with the Ultimatetopsites system.





Edit - url in post is now the main address for the toplist

A Method to Place A Button Within A Topic Heading On The Index Page -
Some admins prefer this method as being neater than having a button in the header or footer.

* Log into your toplist account
* Look for the item marked 'Vote Picture Code'.
* Highlight & Copy the HTML code.

* Back on your forum, go into your admin panel, go to your subject/board controls.
* Create a new board, name it something like 'Vote For Us' .
* Paste the HTML code into the description box for the new board.
* Check for any other settings that may be required and 'Save'.


An example of a button placed by this method appears on the index page of this forum.
This method has worked on all of the forum hosts that I've tried, but if you experience difficulty
or if you have lost your toplist login details, then please contact me via the 'Contact Admin' link
in the menu bar at the head of the toplist page.

   

At one time, when the toplist was getting up to 3000 hits a month, it made sense to reset the hits in/out totals regularly to help keep voting competition keen.

Nowadays the toplist simply does not have the same level of traffic to justify such frequent resets and, in my opinion, it is now the accumulative hit totals that are actually more useful as a guide to informing toplists visitors as to which sites still have the most activity and which are most popular.

Therefore monthly resets are no longer regularly scheduled and a reset will only be called should a clear unbalance or anomaly occur in the hit totals.

If the forum ever gets busy it will easy enough to add more categories, but for the moment please -
- simply just post everything and anything in this one board.
