What you need to know about us:
Our circulation numbers are impressive for a
highly-targeted travel site: more than 3.5 million visits and
nearly 13 million
editorial pageviews per year, with
readers who are more prosperous and highly-educated than average. (See
Audience: Traffic and
Demographics.) In our first five years of using Google Analytics, we racked up
more than 17 million visits and 64
million editorial page views--mostly on "evergreen" destination
articles and cruise reviews that generate Web referrals month after month,
year after year.
Our editorial content is geared to active
travelers (not armchair travelers) who are researching where to go and how
to spend their money in Europe.
In 2012, we're increasing our cruise coverage and promoting our
Europe for Cruisers reviews on
destination pages. (See our "Cruising
PR Opportunities" presentation in PDF format if this topic is of
interest to you.)
Audited traffic:
Comscore and Nielsen Online assign our traffic to their audited
circulation figures for Travora Media
(formerly the Travel Ad Network), which
represents our site along with LonelyPlanet.com, RoughGuides.com,
RandMcNally.com, Kayak.com, the European Travel Commission's VisitEurope.com,
and other major travel sites. This means that you may not see our traffic broken
out separately in CisionPoint and other third-party reporting tools.
