 EdgefieldDaily.com breaks all time records in August web posted August 28, 2009 WEBNEWS – EdgefieldDaily.com has set all time records this month with over 1.57 million hits already registered in August and the final totals are estimated to be between 1.7 and 1.8 million hits by the month’s end. Records show readers have viewed over 3.2 million pages in the last twelve months and accessed over 10 million files. According to statistics, readers seek out between 8,000 and 11,000 pages a day in local news reports. Records show an average of 20,000 unique internet user addresses visiting EdgefieldDaily.com each month. “When EdgefieldDaily.com was founded we never expected to receive 200,000 hits a month, and now we are knocking on the door of 2 million,” founder Roy Blackwell said. “It is obvious that the news product EdgefieldDaily.com provides is well received by readers and further shows that the trend is gearing towards online news over the printed media.” “They (local papers) are here once a week,” he said, “we are here every day.” Blackwell said the fact breaking news could be online within an hour is also an advantage, “It would be next week before you could read about a major breaking story in the local papers. That is something they could, but refuse to provide, on their web sites. Their job is to sell papers; our job is to provide news when it happens free of charge for our readers.” EdgefieldDaily.com has also been cited as the source for Edgefield County news countless times over the past five years in television news broadcasts and not one major story making the regional news has been cited as coming from any other local media outlet. “I think that speaks volumes in the coverage we provide,” Blackwell said. © Copyright 2009
