Burnt Orange Report Passes 4.5 Million Visits

Thanks, readers and commenters! (0.00 / 0)

Thanks to the readers who think BOR is worth returning to, and thanks to the commenters who think it's worth remarking on.

We really do owe our commenters a huge debt of gratitude for these numbers--they probably account for a huge number of these hits, as they hit refresh wondering if anyone's replied to their Democratic screed. :-)

The slope (0.00 / 0)

is what really matters -- that's the rate at which people are watching. (Hey, I'm a mathematician and like teaching calculus.) It looks like BOR was at 500K/yr for three years, jumped up with the 2006 elections, settled down a little, had an incredible spike with the 2008 primaries, and now is running at about 1M/yr.

How do the pageviews/visit compare from year to year? Or the postings per visit? Those are two good measures of how engaged the visitors are.
