LDV doesn’t do statporn, but if we did (April ‘10)

By Stephen Tall | Sat 1st May 2010 - 6:20 pm

… We’d say a big thank you to the 114,614 ‘absolute unique visitors’* who read Liberal Democrat Voice in April.

That’s DOUBLE our March 2010 figure of c.57,000, and we are up some 270% on the equivalent figure for April ’09 … anyone would think there was an election on.

This brings our absolute unique visitor readership for the last year to date (1 May 2009 – 30 April 2010) to 421,146, over 67% higher than the equivalent figure for 2008-09 of 251,110.

The 5 top-read stories during the month were:

1. The flow diagram which shows you who to vote for (22) by Stephen Tall
2. Election purdah period: what can and can’t be done? (1) by Mark Pack
3. The ‘Digital Economy Bill Saints’: the MPs who voted against Labour’s internet freedom clampdown #DEbill (52) by Richard Flowers
4. Poll surge continues: is this 2003 or 1974? (43) by Mark Pack
5. Photo evidence – Geoff Hoon for sale! (10) by The Voice

And the top 5 traffic sources for Lib Dem Voice in April were:
