Breakdown
By far our best month since starting the blog in December 2007. Liberal Conspiracy was the highest referrer, beating Google for the first time. The most popular pieces of the month were James’ reviews of Marxism 2008.
Note on new design
A few days ago, we changed the design of the website. The new build includes certain features that readers have requested (such as the option to be e-mailed if a comment thread is updated). It also load much quicker, and is clearer to read. The theme was designed and built specifically for Scribo Ergo Sum by our resident webmaster, Ali. By simple absent-mindedness, the Google Analytics software was not loaded onto the new design for several days. In other words, our best month ever was actually rather better than it seems.
Note on Stat Porn
Debates rage over the nature and motives of publishing stat porn on a monthly basis. We have published four bullet-pointed key statistics each month, along with comment on the general running of the blog, each month since we started. It lets our (growing ;)) readership know where we are, and allows us to take stock in a single “housekeeping” message once a month instead of drip-feeding belly-fluff inspection throughout the year.
