Wow -- a quick jump from 10 million to 12 million unique visitors at Suite

Posted by Marci Hotsenpiller Nov 4, 2008

If you publish it...will they come? Apparently so. Just as the ink was drying on our news release about attracting a record 10 million unique visitors to Suite101 in September, we shot through the 12 million mark in October.

Where are these new readers and writers coming from? We've heard that some of you have hit the "blog saturation point" and are looking for online writing that offers more than a first person opinion about something. We've also seen a host of new journalists sign up to write for Suite after respected careers in the trenches of traditional newsrooms. And others--on a not-so-great note--are joining us to take control of their writing careers after recent staff cuts at well-known magazines and newspapers.

So if you're reading this and are new to the site, let us know what brought you here. For those of you who have been reading and writing with us for the past decade…any bets on when we'll hit the 15 million mark? :)
