A year of steady growth in readers and listeners
We started blogging on ottergroup.com a year ago and since then our monthly page views have grown from zero to more than 85,000 per month from more than 65,000 distinct visitors.*
One reason for the growth has to be podcasting. In April we started podcasting the Negotiation Tip of the Week and soon after, the number of page requests from podcatching clients started growing.
Browser statistics show the growth of podcasting listeners and also how iTunes so quickly came to dominate the podcatching market.
- In July, August and September iPodder was #7. iTunes started supporting podcasts at the end of June and in September iTunes first appeared in our browser list at #8.
- In October iTunes for Windows was #6 and other versions of iTunes were #10, 12, 14 and 16 with iPodder appearing at #17.
- And in November iTunes rose to positions #2 (iTunes for Windows) and #4 (iTunes for Macs) as well as #15, with iPodder again a distant 17th.
With three podcasts running we look forward to continued growth. Thanks for listening.
*In September we moved the Negotiation Tip of the Week to its own blog
and in October we started the Innovation Tip of the Week on its own
blog so the chart likely includes some duplication of visitors in the last couple
months.
