Summer is over, or at least it looks like so from the traffic trends in the last two weeks. Web traffic has been going up again quite rapidly and I expect the trend to continue for another week or two still, until the typical traffic levels are reached again.

MasterNewMedia compared head to head with some of its many competitors: Poynter.org, Scoble, Copyblogger, Shoemoney. Source data: Google Trends

Whatever the traffic trend, Master New Media publishes all of his web traffic stats every first week of each month, providing public access to demographics data and audience statistics as collected by the multiple services we use to gather accurate information about our online readers.

N.B.: If you would like to suggest additional stats to be included, or would like to recommend a specific analytics technology to add to this web traffic analysis toolkit, feel free to utilize the comments section at the end of this monthly web traffic report. Next month we are adding Qantacast as a new source of traffic data to this list.
