Do there exist standard speeds at which online communities grow (if they're well executed and useful, of course)?

Asked by jdegrazia (274points) September 12th, 2008

Anyone know of any good info sources on online community growth? Some case studies maybe? (Note: by online communities, I mean blogs and forums and Q&A sites and any other kinds of information and education focused sites on which people can consume, produce, and share content.)

It all depends on the target audience. A broader group will inevitably lead to faster growth. The distinction between paid and free also changes things.
