Some highlights – focussing on the good news:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

There have been huge increases<\/strong> to our Japanese, Portuguese, Arabic and Korean mailing lists — as high as a 27%<\/strong> gain for the Japanese list. The German list continues to grow, and has replaced Italian as our 5th largest list.<\/p>\n

We saw growth in traffic<\/strong> to both our websites (the news and campaigning sites), with a doubling of traffic<\/strong> to the latter (due to new campaigns being launched in March).<\/p>\n

For the first time we’re seeing Morocco<\/strong> appearing in the top 10 countries bringing traffic to LabourStart — this\u00a0 is no doubt due to our campaign on behalf of the “Casablanca 5”.<\/p>\n

In this report for the first time I provide data on which operating systems<\/strong> people are using to access LabourStart. It will be interesting to compare this month on month. Interesting to note that almost one in five<\/strong> users of our campaigns does so through a smartphone or tablet, with only about 80% still doing this through desktop and laptop computers.\u00a0 The launch of our website for small screen devices couldn’t have come at a better time.<\/p>\n
