Counter-Currents/North American New Right Newsletter: October 2015

939 words

Dear Friends of Counter-Currents,

After a big jump in traffic in September, October was a month of leveling off. This has been a pattern over the years with Counter-Currents: sudden upsurges in traffic, followed by plateaus. October traffic was slightly down because in September we had several articles that went “viral,” whereas in October that did not happen. 

1. Our Readership and Web Traffic

2. Our Webzine

In October, we added 77 pieces and more than 500 comments to our webzine.

3. October’s Top 20 Pieces (with Number of Reads)

1. Émile Durand, “Toward a Baltic-Black Sea Union: ‘Intermarium’ as a Viable Model for White Revival,” 7,031

3. Patrick Le Brun, “White Nationalists Need Plan Parenthood Not the Pope,” 6,166
4. Greg Johnson, “The Refutation of Libertarianism,” 6,142
5. Greg Johnson, “White Civilization in the Dumpster,” 5,614
6. Irmin Vinson, “The Heresy of Christian Zionism,” 5,272
7. Greg Johnson, “Reframing the Jewish Question,” 4,524

12. Collin Cleary, “Asatru as a Living Tradition,” 3,657
13. Greg Johnson interviews Daniel Friberg on the Swedish New Right, 3,650
14. Guillaume Durocher, “Is the European Union a US Puppet?” 3,644
15. Greg Johnson, “Toward the Tipping Point,” 3,534

19. Kevin Beary, “Life Styles: Native and Imposed,” 3,192
20. Buttercup Dew, “Full Nazi,” 3,159

In October, Greg Johnson had 7 top 20 pieces, counting his interview with Daniel Friberg; F. Roger Devlin had two pieces; Émile Durand, Irmin Vinson, Julius Evola, Jack Donovan, Guillaume Durocher, Margot Metroland, James J. O’Meara, Kevin Beary, and Buttercup Dew each had 1; Jack Donovan’s piece was first written in 2012 and rose from the crypt mysteriously due to search engine traffic. I thought perhaps that Hugo Schwyzer had finally committed suicide. But no. The cause remains mysterious. I want to thank all our writers for making Counter-Currents great.

Collin Cleary’s Summoning the Gods will appear in French translation. Andy Nowicki’s Under the Nihil and Lost Violent Souls will appear in Portuguese.

7. Our Amazon Affiliate Membership

In March, under pressure from the SPLC, which was amplified in the pages of the Washington Post, Amazon.com dropped Counter-Currents from its Affiliate Marketing program, which earned us about $6,000/year — a substantial financial hit to a business as small as ours. The SPLC’s aim, of course, is to put us out of business. Fortunately, our readers have rallied to our aid.

8. Counter-Currents Events

• On September 26th, Greg Johnson gave a talk called “Toward the Tipping Point” in Stockholm.
• On October 3rd, Greg Johnson gave a talk on “The Refutation of Libertarianism” at the London Forum.
