FreeRepublic vs. DU ranking stats

I thought it was interesting to do a little statistical analysis of FreeRepublic.com stats vs. that "other" site.

These first statistics from Alexa.com (tracking service owned by Amazon) show daily ranking over the period of one year. Yahoo is ranked #1. Increase in ranking is an exponential increase. In other words, site #10,000 gets more than double the traffic of site #20,000. In this case, the lower the ranking number, the better.

Here is the actual reach of the site, showing how many people per million population on the web visit the site each day.

Here you can see the exponential difference in the sites. FR is averaging approximately 600 visits per million web users/day. DU is averaging approximately 125 visits per million users/day. Free Republic has FIVE TIMES as much traffic as DU.

Nah, we can throw them a bone every now and then

I'd rather dangle it in front of them and snatch it back. They're such crybabies though, it's not even necessary to do anything to see them whine.

It wouldn't surprise me if the online population were more conservative overall. Think of how many in the Democrat base are poor and/or uneducated.

A lot of DU's visit here. Everytime I go there snooping, they are quoting us or sniping at one of our posts.

True, but isn't it kinda fun to see how paranoid they get once they come here, then go back there and post about it? hehe

DU is averaging approximately 125 visits per million users/day.

I think up to 1/2 of this amount is actually from FReeping spies, hehehe!

yeah, one of them said, "How the Hell are terrorists going to invade American air space and knock down Kerry's jet..."

I would humbly submitt that OBL has NO intention of blowing his guy out of the sky.

I would humbly submitt that OBL has NO intention of blowing his guy out of the sky. Perhaps it was a freeper showing compassionate conservatism so he wouldn't look half as stupid? ;-)
