In other news, even though Reddit is one of my site’s largest referrers - I still have no fucking clue how people (myself?) use it (or are supposed to use it?). Explanations/Tutorials/Justifications welcome. fwiw this is me, if having more friends will help me understand why it’s useful.

Times loses almost 90% of online readership

nostrich:

Data from the web metrics company Experian Hitwise shows that only 25.6% of such users sign up and proceed to a Times web page; based on custom categories (created at the Guardian) that have been used to track the performance of major UK press titles online, visits to the Times site have fallen to 4.16% of UK quality press online traffic, compared with 15% before it made registration compulsory on 15 June.

The figures are far from gospel, and not official in any way, but it looks pretty bleak for The Times.

So, at what point do you consider that a failed experiment? At what point do you realize that your piddling subscribe revenues don’t even make up a tenth of your lost advertiser revenue, and call it a day?
