LabourStart in Numbers – June 2010

The last month saw another big net gain for our mailing lists – especially English, French, and Spanish.  We have now topped 70,000 subscribers to the lists.  And we’re getting close to 800 correspondents, 99 of whom posted news in June.  I’ve added Google’s stats for absolute unique visitors, which shows a decline compared to May.  Here are the totals with the changes since the end of May in brackets:

  • Mailing lists – subscribers: 70,464 [+1,254]
  • LabourStart’s English language mailing list: 57,153 [+1,182]
  • Absolute unique visitors according to Google: 39,510 [-4,714]
  • UnionBook – members: 4,650 [+87]
  • Facebook – members of LabourStart group: 3,438 [+222]
  • Twitter – followers: 2,228 [+57]
  • Correspondents: 785 [+14]
  • Union group on Flickr: 556 [+4]
  • LinkedIn – members of LabourStart group: 180 [+9]

Some highlights from the mailing lists — the other large groups are:

  • Norwegian 2,699 [+23]
  • French 2,064 [+147]
  • Spanish 1,174 [+127]
  • German 792 [+31]
  • Italian 505 [+31]
  • Russian 415 [+20]
  • Turkish 316 [new]
  • Polish 302 [+4]
  • Portuguese 235 [+6]
  • Swedish 228 [+2]
