We are winning.

Check out the traffic rankings for DU, FR, and lucianne.com from alexa:

http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details?q=&url=lucianne.com

I think this data reflects the awakening of the American people to the horror of the BFEE and the GOP.


We the people, not our elected officials, are leading our nation back to democracy.

1. Not sure how to read the info but we have fewer stars

If I read it right we are not winning.

2. The stars are just for reviews. You can ignore them.

If you look at the trends in traffic you will see that DU is up, FR is down, and lucianne is seriously down.

4. Is a larger number better or worse?

I notice by the graph in Oct and Nov we had a number of ten thousand and now we are at four thousand. Is it getting better or worse?

[barbaraann]

6. Better--that's rank and lower is better.

I was trying to remember what happened in November to make traffic go up but I just can't recall.

3. Very interesting

Thanks for the links, looks like a significant downturn in traffic for both freerepublic and lucianne and a nice upward trend for DU.

7. You're welcome.

Lucianne is more hateful than FR so I'm happy to see it tanking.

9. Ha Ha!

That seems to indicate that most of FReeperland's traffic comes from people who just stop in to see the freak show.

11. This is probably true..

I stopped in over there the other day to see what was going on, then I got disturbed and left. :scared:

8. This is great news

more are trying to find out what the real truth is and they are getting tired of being fed crap. DU RULES

10. DU is a must for me now

The breaking news, editorials and the discussion area really keep me informed and give me some new ways at looking at things. The Lounge can be very heartwarming and entertaining. I'm so glad I found this place.

12. This weekend is strange on FR.

I've peeked over there a few times and most of the posts seem to be about FOOTBALL and not a lot about politics. Weird!

Basketball I could understand, but FOOTBALL??? ;)
