Our traffic remained plateaued for a third straight month. Interestingly enough, although most comments were eliminated on April 2, there was no measurable drop in traffic to the site. Indeed, if you take into account that April is one day shorter than March, our daily average for unique visitors was actually higher.
2. Our Webzine
In April, we added 83 posts to the website, for a total of 2,606 posts since going online on June 11, 2010.
3. Our Fundraising Efforts
Counter-Currents, like all journals that go against the current of time, needs the support of donors to thrive and grow. Our financial situation, and what you can do to help out, is outlined in my article “Movement or ‘Stuckment.’” Please consider making a donation today.
