TheBusinessDesk.com Yorkshire enjoys 10th-consecutive record month

AUDIENCE figures continue to break records at TheBusinessDesk.com Yorkshire after November showed a 48% increase in traffic on a year ago.

It extends the run to 10 consecutive months of setting like-for-like monthly records, which have contributed to a 30% increase in page views so far in 2015. 

The site received 288,000 page views in November – 93,000 more than November 2014 – boosted by our coverage of George Osborne’s Autumn Statement, which was one of the busiest days ever, and big deals involving Irwin Mitchell, Flybe and the former Carcraft site.

Clare Burnett, deputy editor of TheBusinessDesk.com Yorkshire, said: “Audience growth has been strong and sustained throughout 2015, showing the appetite for quality regional business news.

“The Yorkshire site has already had an additional 700,000 page views this year, taking us above 3m for the first time.
