July traffic was markedly down on June, in common, it seems with most other blogs. I suppose the spike from Smeargate and the elections was too good to last. Despite that, absolute unique visitors were up 66% on last July.
There were 706,000 page views, off 516,296 unique visitors, and 98,879 absolute unique visitors.
Here are my top 10 linking sites (ie incoming hits) for July, according to Google Analytics.
1. - Guido Fawkes 63,006 (95,644)
2. +1 ConservativeHome 17,051 (21,846)
3. +1 PoliticsHome 16,333 (21,529)
4. -2 Spectator Coffee House 15,884 (21,878)
5. - PoliticalBetting 10,435 (17,221)
6. +1 Twitter 6,014 (6,190)
7. -1 Facebook 5,789 (6,980)
8. +1 Dizzy Thinks 4,119 (6,079)
9. +2 Obnoxio the Clown 2,574 (3,199)

ReplyDeleteCrikey, give a blogger a chance of getting on there!
Looks like we're in for a genuine recess with, as you say, all blogs seeing hits go down.
