Fred Thompson's Web Guy Must Be Doing Something Right
IMAO ^ | November 07, 2007 | Frank J

Posted on 11/07/2007 3:59:47 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Going by unique visitors, Fred Thompson easily leads among the presidential candidates from both parties with 635,000 for fred08.com easily beating second place Obama's 433,000 for whatever his site is. Surprisingly, Ron Paul, whose supporters have nothing better to do than hang out on the internet all day, rank's third among Republicans and sixth overall.

I think Fred Thompson's site would get even more traffic if it had like some cool flash games where you control Fred Thompson shooting terrorists and communists in the face and then have a bonus round where you cut taxes with a machete. The first presidential candidate with an awesome flash game is totally going to win the White House.

BTW, while September ended up being an off month traffic wise for IMAO, we still brought in about as many unique visitors a day as Kucinich got all month. Hopefully impotently trying to impeach the vice president will give him the popularity boost he needs!

(hat tip Conservative Grapevine)

UPDATE:

Someone how this became one of the tops hits for "Ron Paul" on Google News, and you how Ronulans have nothing better to do than look for mentions of Ron Paul in the news all day...

I visit the blog a few times a day to see updates and read the posts. It’s no surprise that it’s attracting lots of folks.

RonPaul2008 vs Fred08

Fred may be winning in unique visitors, but the Ronulans spend much more time on RonPaul2008.com

Alexa is way too easily manipulated to have any true value.

I'm waiting for the Ron Paul campaign to DDOS their own site just to drive up the number of hits.

PS: Don't get pissed Paulestinians, I'm kidding.

Just saw Fred’s commercial while watching FOX. It was really good....and I’m a Hunter lover ;-) He really did a great job on his delivery.

They should definitely make a game where Fred is killing terrorists with his bare hands and slashing taxes with a machete.

Maybe they can make one for Romney and Rudy too where you have to get a license and pass a test before you get the machete, then use it on fetuses instead of taxes.
