1.5 Million Hits
In the period
5/1/05 to 4/30/06, we received almost 1.5 million hits.
We reach 12,000+ households every month. (50,000 unique
annual households)
The number quoted is conservative and reflects the bare
minimum in our visitor numbers from software.
Locations with multiple computers such as businesses,
colleges, manufacturers, and homes show up in many cases
with the same ip address, so we have thousands of uncounted
visitors every year. For example, when you look at the
total search terms for the year (reflecting less than half
of our total traffic), the first 50 terms have from 14 to
433 searches each. We reach 25% of the 17 town
population each year. Remember, those we do reach are
highly desirable demographics!
Continued
Growth
In the 4 month period of
January through April 2006, GreaterGardner.net received more
than 750,000 hits. This is over 2 million hits
per year and is triple digit growth!
In the first six days of May
2006, the site received almost 10,000 hits per day -
