f! The Blog

Several milestones have been achieved in January, making it a good start in 2010. Last month, FFindr attracted the highest traffic ever with over 22,000 visitors from 136 different countries and more than 65,000 page views. This means an increase of over 20 percent of visitors and more than 26 percent of served pages compared to the previous record set in October 2009.

A year-over-year comparison with January 2009 shows an impressive 139 percent increase of visitors, whereas page views climbed by 88 percent. Compared to two years ago, visits increased by +1,194.87% with page views at +709.30% growth.

The top ten countries and their share of visitors:

1. United States 17.48% share of total traffic in January

The top ten visited tournaments on FFindr showcase once again either events that rely on FFindr's free registration service (marked with *) or the top highlights of the year (and 2010 has plenty of them). In the case of Junior Worlds even both (top event AND FFindr-powered registration) is true.

1. Windmill Windup Amsterdam 2010 * (1,212 page views)
2. WFDF World Ultimate Club Championships 2010 (995)
3. Parkettrutscher 2010 * (717)
4. WFDF World U23 Ultimate Championships 2010 (605)
5. Paganello 2010: Amarcord (509)
6. WFDF World Junior Ultimate Championships 2010 / EFDF European "Open" Junior Ultimate Championships 2010 * (456)
7. Disc All Stars 2010 * (386)
8. Copa del Soul * (349)
9. Lloret Costa Brava 2010 (279)
10. Spirit On Ice 2010 (276)

Sounds like a lot, is a lot. But this is not everything. January also brought the 2000th added event as well as the 1000th registered user.

And last but not least for January 2010, this blog passed for the first time the mark of 100 Feedburner subscriptions. One final note: I am currently working on a pretty exciting (set of) feature(s), triggered by the work on the registration process for Junior Worlds but going much further. I am pretty sure that you will like it.
