Best month of 2008

July ended strong with 37,004 uniques and 178,742 page views thanks again to Adam's story on the 90-year-old woman and Andrew's initiative to send a wire story to Fark.

Kudos also to Frank Coppola whose story on the Manny Ramirez trade got more than 2,200 page views.

July was our most successful month this year with a total of 879,597 unique visitors for an average of 28,374 per day. This is a 31 percent increase over last year's July numbers.

Remember that our breaking news incentive began today and will run the entire month of August.
