So where can I get Info on # of daily visitors to DU?

[StClone]

Especially as compared to Freepland? I didn't bet the farm but said we get over 80% of their traffic. Winger says not even close. Need link.

1. Bet the NSA knows................n/t

2. Try Alexa.com For Relative Figures

It looks like DU is getting about a third of the traffic of Free Republic.

4. Doesn't Alexa only show a hit if the user has something installed on...

their machine? If so, this doesn't really tell us much if for some reason Freepers would be more likely to have this software installed on their machine, correct?

5. Right, so more freeps allow this spyware than liberals do n/t

9. Seems we have many strong sites

Bevy of strong Liberal, Progressive, Dem sites and they just have Freepland. Atrios, Daily KOS etc.

8. alexa isn't the end all be all though. they use some interesting ways

to measure traffic

according to the "Advertise Liberally" we get 1.5 Million page views a day (dKos gets 4.6 mill)


I have to reboot, but you can check FR and other freeper sites here

6. Ask the DU Admins

I don't know if they want that public or not, but certainly they have the stats on the traffic here. This software alone will tell them how many posts were made in each forum, the hours of the day they are made, the number of unique IPs that come to the site and the number of log entries for the board.

7. They freep themselves.....

Wouldn't surprise me if they had dedicated PCs scripted to continually reload their page.
