In like a lion

February 2008 has been another record-setting month for Seacoastonline.

After achieving an average of 27,990 unique daily visitors in January we set the bar even higher with 29,233 uniques. This sets our year-to-date daily average at 28,615, which puts us slightly ahead of our year-end goal of 28,366.

March certainly came in like a lion yesterday with 62,366 unique visitors thanks, in large part to a Fark pickup of a wire story about a giant snowwoman. But many of our local stories also did extremely well, most notably Dan Lorenz’ story, “What is going on with my TV?” that brought in more than 7,000 page views.

Saturday’s traffic was also relatively strong thanks to Gina Carbone’s review of “The Other Boleyn Girl which brought in close to 6,000 page views.

Just a reminder to our weekly editors that you now have a breaking news window on your home pages. Please work with Andrew and Alexa to see that these windows contain fresh breaking news daily. If you want to see a good example of this working as it was designed check out the York County Coast Star home page.
